Overview
Brother's Print / Fax server range supports SMB (Server Message Block) over the
TCP/IP protocol via the NetBIOS interface. This means that just like regular
Windows
®
PC’s, Brother printers can appear in your network neighborhood. The
main advantage of NetBIOS printing is that you are able to print from legacy
DOS applications that are running on PC’s that are connected to Microsoft
networks.
