The BRAdmin application can use the IPX/SPX or TCP/IP protocols
to communicate with the Brother print server.

If you wish to use the TCP/IP protocol to manage the print server
make sure that the print server has a valid IP address. There are two
ways to change the IP address using the BRAdmin Professional
software:

Use the IPX/SPX protocol.

Use the TCP/IP protocol and let BRAdmin find the Brother print
server as an unconfigured device.

Using BRAdmin and the IPX/SPX
Protocol to set the IP address

If your PC is using the Novell Netware Client software and is using
the IPX/SPX protocol, do the following:

1

Select IPX/SPX filter in the left frame of the main window.

2

Check the print server name (the default node name is

BRN_xxxxxx

, where

Ethernet address (MAC address)).

If you cannot find your server name, select the Device menu and
choose Search Active Devices (you can also press the F4 key) and
try again.

3

Select the print server that you wish to configure and double
click it. You will be asked for a password. The default password
is

4

Select the TCP/IP tab and set the IP address, Subnet mask
and Gateway as needed.

In the IP Config box, click the Static radio button.

You can find the node name and 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.
