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 feature 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 servers is
192.0.0.192. To change it, use the printer control panel (if
applicable), the BRAdmin application, or let your DHCP server
allocate an IP address to the printer.
2
Refer to chapter 12 of this user guide to learn how to configure
the IP address on your printer.
3
The default password for Brother print servers is access.

Windows
®
95/98/Me users can send print jobs using the IPP
protocol via a Windows
®
2000 computer providing that the
Microsoft Internet Print Services software is installed on the
client PC, IIS is installed and running on the Windows
®
2000
and that the client PC is using version 4 or later of Microsoft
Internet Explorer.

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.
