Note
If you have edited the hosts file on your computer or are using Domain Name System (DNS), you can
also enter the DNS name of the print server. As the print server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS names,
you can also enter the NetBIOS name of the print server. The NetBIOS name can be seen in the Network
Configuration List. To learn how to print the Network Configuration List, see Printing the Network
Configuration List on page 25. The NetBIOS name assigned is the first 15 characters of the node name
and by default it will appear as “BRNxxxxxx” where “xxxxxx” is the last six digits of the Ethernet address.
