At the remote site, an E-mail server receives the E-mail message.
The remote print server, which has its own E-mail address, uses
the POP3 protocol (Post Office Protocol 3) to download the E-mail
message from the e-mail server. It then decodes the attachment
and prints it out on the printer.

Configuring the Brother Print Server

The print server can be configured using BRAdmin, by using a web
browser, or by using the TELNET command.

Print Server Configuration Checklist

1

Configure the POP3 server on the E-mail server at the remote
site with a mail account (Mailbox name) and password for the
Brother print server (generally, the mail account name will be
the first part of the Email address; for example, if you assign the
Email address [email protected], then the mail account
name would be emailprinter).

2

Make sure that the print server is installed and running with
TCP/IP enabled and has a valid IP address assigned to it.

Because access to the E-mail server on most networks is usually
restricted, you may need to have your network administrator check
the configuration and add the mail account.

If an E-mail is received that has not been configured to use
the BIP virtual port driver, the printer will print the E-mail out
as a text document.

Before configuring the print server to receive BIP jobs, be
sure that the E-mail server at the remote site (the receiving
end) is configured to handle the TCP/IP POP3, and SMTP
protocols (SMTP is only required if the notification feature is
enabled).
