Web Browser Management
Many Brother printers support Embedded Web Server (EWS)
technology. This means that you can use a standard web browser to
manage many aspects of the printer; for example, you can view
consumable life, configure network parameters, view serial number
information, printer usage, and so on. Start your web browser and
enter the NetBIOS name, DNS name or IP address of the printer.
(Windows
®
only)
BRAdmin Professional
The BRAdmin Professional software is designed to manage your
Brother network connected devices, such as our network ready
printers and multifunction centers. BRAdmin Professional can also
manage other manufacturers' products that support SNMP (Simple
Network Management Protocol).
Driver Deployment Wizard
This installer includes the Windows
®
PCL driver and Brother
network port driver (LPR and NetBIOS). The administrator should set
up the IP address, Gateway and Subnet with BRAdmin Professional
before using this software.
If the administrator then installs the printer driver and port driver
using this software, he can save the file to the File server or send the
file in E-mail to users. Then, each user just clicks that file to have the
printer driver, port driver, IP address, and so on, automatically copied
to their PC.
