Peer to Peer Printing
How to Print in a Windows
®
95/98/Me Peer to Peer network
Overview
Microsoft's Windows
®
95/98/Me operating systems features built-in networking
capabilities. These capabilities allow a Windows
®
PC to be configured as a client
workstation in a file server based network environment.
For smaller networks, Windows
®
95/98/Me also allows the PC to operate in a
peer-to-peer mode. In this mode, the PC can share resources with other PCs on
the network without the need for a central file server.
Quick Tips:
1. The default IP address of Brother Print / Fax servers is 192.0.0.192. To
change it, use the FAX/MFC’s front panel , the BRAdmin application, or
let your DHCP server allocate an IP address to the printer.
2. Refer to chapter 1 of this user guide to learn how to configure the IP
address on your FAX/MFC.
3. The default password for Brother Print / Fax servers is "access".
4. Windows
®
95/98/Me users can send print jobs using the IPP protocol via
a Windows
®
2000 or Windows
®
XP computer providing that the
Microsoft Internet Print Services software is installed on the client PC,
IIS is installed and running on the Windows
®
2000 or Windows
®
XP and
that the client PC is using version 4 or later of Microsoft Internet
Explorer.
5. Brother printers are also compatible with HP JetDirect software, this
means that you can use HP utilities to manage and to print to your
Brother printer.
