LAN Server, OS/2 Warp Server Configuration
Brother Print Servers will work with IBM LAN Server, OS/2 Warp Server networks that have
IBM TCP/IP V2.0 or later installed on the file server (TCP/IP is supplied as standard with
LAN Server V4.0 and later as well as Warp Server). Use the following procedure to configure
the print server on an LAN Server or OS/2 Warp Server file server, or on a OS/2 Warp
Connect workstation:
Server Configuration
Make sure that TCP/IP software is installed on your OS/2 file server. If you have not already
done so, open the TCP/IP folder on the desktop, and double click on the TCP/IP
Configuration icon to add the IP address to the OS/2 file server (consult your system
manager for this address).
Programming an IP address for the print server
1. If you have the computer on where the BRAdmin32 for Windows 95/98/NT4.0
workstation, it is easiest to use the BRAdmin32 to configure the IP address for the
print server, otherwise go to step2.
2. At the OS/2 prompt, use the "arp -s” command from the DOS prompt to enter the IP
address into the Brother Print Server as shown in the following example. If your
printer does have an LCD display, use the front panel buttons to configure the IP
address as described in the Quick Setup Guide.
arp -s 192.189.207.77 00:80:77:31:01:07 temp
Substitute the IP address of the Brother Print Server that you wish to use and replace
'
00:80:77:31:01:07' with the actual Ethernet address (MAC Address) of the
Brother Print Server. Note that you should use colons rather than hyphens to separate
the bytes of the hardware address.
✒ Note
You can find the MAC address by printing out the printer configuration page. Refer to the
Quick Setup Guide for information on how to print the configuration page on your print server.
