Overview
Brother print servers support the AppleTalk protocol running over
Ethernet (also known as EtherTalk). This allows Macintosh
®
users to
print at the same time as all other Ethernet network using the
AppleTalk (also referred to as EtherTalk) protocol.
With the release of System 8.6 or later, Apple introduced a TCP/IP
printing capability. This allows Macintosh
®
users to send print jobs
using the TCP/IP protocol.
With the release of OS/X 10.2, Apple introduced support for Apple
Rendezvous
printing. Apple Rendezvous
supports automatic
network configuration. If you choose to use the Rendezvous features
of your Brother product, you usually do not need to configure any IP
address settings yourself.
