1 Introduction 1 1 Overview 1 Your Brother machine can be shared on a 10/100 Mb wired or IEEE 802.11b/802.11g wireless Ethernet network using the internal network print server. The print server supports various functions and methods of connection depending on the operating system you are running on a network supporting TCP/IP. These functions include printing, scanning, PC Fax send, PC Fax receive, Remote Setup and Status Monitor.
Introduction Network features 1 1 Your Brother machine has the following basic network features. Network printing 1 The print server provides printing services for Windows® 2000/XP, Windows Vista® and Windows Server® 2003/2008 supporting the TCP/IP protocols and Macintosh (Mac OS X 10.3.9 or greater) supporting TCP/IP. Network scanning 1 You can scan documents over the network to your computer (See Network Scanning in the Software User’s Guide).
Introduction BRAdmin Professional 3 (Windows®) 1 BRAdmin Professional 3 is a utility for more advanced management of network connected Brother devices. This utility can search for Brother products on your network and view the device status from an easy to read explorer style window that changes color identifying the status of each device. You can configure network and device settings along with the ability to update device firmware from a Windows® computer on your LAN.
Introduction Remote Setup 1 The Remote Setup software allows you to configure network settings from a Windows® or Macintosh (Mac OS X 10.3.9 or greater) computer. (See Remote Setup in the Software User’s Guide.) 1 Internet fax/scan to E-mail server (MFC-8880DN and MFC-8890DW only) 1 The Brother machine can be assigned an E-mail address allowing you to send, receive or forward documents over a Local Area Network or the Internet to PC’s or other Internet fax machines.
Introduction Types of network connections 1 1 Wired network connection example 1 Generally there are two types of network connections: Peer-to-Peer and Network Shared environment. Peer-to-Peer printing using TCP/IP 1 In a Peer-to-Peer environment, each computer directly sends and receives data to each device. There is no central server controlling file access or printer sharing.
Introduction Network Shared printing 1 In a Network Shared environment, each computer sends data via a centrally controlled computer. This type of computer is often called a “Server” or a “Print Server”. Its job is to control the printing of all print jobs. 1 Client computer 2 Also known as “Server” or “Print server” 3 TCP/IP, USB or parallel 1 (where available) 4 Printer (your machine) In a larger network, we recommend a Network Shared printing environment.
Introduction Wireless network connection examples (For MFC-8890DW only) 1 1 Connected to a computer with an access point on the network (Infrastructure mode) 1 This type of network has a central access point at the heart of the network. The access point can also act as a bridge or a gateway to a wired network. When the Brother wireless machine (your machine) is part of this network, it receives all print jobs via an access point.
Introduction Protocols 1 1 TCP/IP protocols and functionalities 1 Protocols are the standardized sets of rules for transmitting data on a network. Protocols allow users to gain access to network connected resources. The print server used on this Brother product supports the TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) protocol. TCP/IP is the most popular set of protocols used for communication such as Internet and E-mail.
Introduction WINS 1 Windows Internet Name Service is an information providing service for the NetBIOS name resolution by consolidating an IP address and a NetBIOS name that is in the local network. 1 LPR/LPD 1 Commonly used printing protocols on a TCP/IP network. SMTP client 1 Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) client is used to send E-mails via the Internet or Intranet. Custom Raw Port (Default is Port 9100) 1 Another commonly used printing protocol on a TCP/IP network.
Introduction Web services 1 The Web Services protocol enables Windows Vista® users to install the Brother printer driver by right clicking the machine icon from the Start / Network selection. See Installation when using web services (Windows Vista®) on page 207. 1 The Web Services also lets you check the current status of the machine from your computer.
Introduction Other protocol 1 1 LLTD 1 The Link Layer Topology Discovery protocol (LLTD) lets you locate the Brother machine easily on the Windows Vista® network map. Your Brother machine will be shown with a distinctive icon and the node name. The default setting for this protocol is Off. You can activate LLTD using the BRAdmin Professional 3 utility software. Visit the download page for your model at http://solutions.brother.com/ to download BRAdmin Professional 3.
2 Configuring your machine for a network 2 Overview 2 2 Before using your Brother machine in a network environment, you must install the Brother software and also configure the appropriate TCP/IP network settings on the machine itself. In this chapter, you will learn the basic steps required to print over the network using TCP/IP protocol.
Configuring your machine for a network How the IP address is assigned to your print server: 2 If you have a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server in your network (typically a UNIX®/Linux or Windows® 2000/XP, Windows Vista® or Windows Server® 2003/2008 network) the print server will automatically obtain its IP address from the DHCP server and register its name with any RFC 1001 and 1002-compliant dynamic name services. 2 Note On smaller networks, the DHCP server may also be the router.
Configuring your machine for a network Gateway (and router) 2 A gateway is a network point that acts as an entrance to another network and sends data transmitted via the network to an exact destination. The router knows where to direct data that arrives at the gateway. If a destination is located on an external network, the router transmits data to the external network. If your network communicates with other networks, you may need to configure the Gateway IP address.
Configuring your machine for a network Setting the IP address and subnet mask 2 Using the BRAdmin Light utility to configure your machine as a network printer 2 2 BRAdmin Light 2 The BRAdmin Light utility is designed for initial setup of the Brother network connected devices.

14 Security features 14 Overview 14 In today’s world there are many security threats to your network and the data that travels over it. Your Brother machine employs some of the latest network security and encryption protocols available today. These network features can be integrated into your overall network security plan to help protect your data and prevent unauthorized access to the machine. This chapter explains various security protocols supported and how to configure them.
Security features Security protocols 14 The Brother print server supports the following security protocols. Note How to configure the protocol settings, see Using Web Based Management (web browser) to change the print/scan server settings on page 20. SSL (Secure Socket Layer) / TLS (Transport Layer Security) 14 These security communication protocols encrypt data to prevent security threats. Web server (HTTPS) 14 The internet protocol that the Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) uses SSL.
Security features Configuring the protocol settings 14 You can enable or disable each protocol and security method using Web Based Management (web browser). Note We recommend Microsoft® Internet Explorer® 6.0 (or greater) or Firefox 1.0 (or greater) for Windows® and Safari 1.3 for Macintosh. Please also make sure that JavaScript and Cookies are always enabled in whichever browser you use. To use a web browser, you will need to know the IP address of the print server. a b Start your web browser.
Security features Managing your network printer securely 14 To manage your network printer securely, you need to use the management utilities with security protocols. Secure Management using Web Based Management (web browser) 14 We recommend to use HTTPS and SNMPv3 protocol for secure management. To use the HTTPS protocol, the following printer settings are required. A certificate and private key must be installed in the printer.
Security features c You can now access the printer using HTTPS. We recommend secure management (SNMPv3) be used along with the HTTPS protocol. If you use the SNMPv3 protocol, follow the steps below. Note You can also change the SNMP settings by using BRAdmin Professional 3 or Web BRAdmin. d e Click Network Configuration. f g h Click Configure Protocol. Enter a user name and a password. The default User Name is “admin” and the default Password is “access”.
Security features SNMPv3 read-write access and v1/v2c read-only access In this mode the print server uses the read-write access of version 3 and the read-only access of version 1 and version 2c of the SNMP protocol. Note When you use the SNMPv3 read-write access and v1/v2c read-only access mode, some of Brother applications (e.g. BRAdmin Light) that access to the print server do not work properly since they authorize the read-only access of version 1 and version 2c.
Security features Printing documents securely using IPPS 14 To print documents securely over the internet, you can use the IPPS protocol. Note • Communication using IPPS cannot prevent unauthorized access to the print server. • IPPS is available for Windows® 2000/XP, Windows Vista® and Windows Server® 2003/2008. To use the IPPS protocol, the following printer settings are required. A certificate and private key must be installed in the printer.
Security features Using E-mail notification with user authentication (For MFC-8880DN and MFC-8890DW) 14 To use the E-mail notification function via secure SMTP server that requires a user authentication, you need to use POP before SMTP or SMTP-AUTH method. These methods prevent an unauthorized user from accessing the mail server. You can use Web Based Management (web browser), BRAdmin Professional and Web BRAdmin to configure these settings.
Security features g You can configure the POP3/SMTP settings on this page. Note • You can also change the SMTP port number using Web Based Management. This is useful if your ISP (Internet Service Provider) implements the “Outbound Port 25 Blocking (OP25B)” service. By changing the SMTP port number to a specific number which your ISP is using for the SMTP server (for example, port 587), you would then be able to send an E-mail via the SMTP server.
Security features Creating and installing a certificate 14 The Brother print server allows you to use SSL/TLS communication by configuring a certificate and corresponding private key. This print server supports two certification methods. A self-signed certificate and a certificate that is issued by a CA (Certificate Authority).

The Brother print server provides the following predefined services (do a SHOW SERVICE command in the Brother print server remote console to see a list of available services): Enter HELP at the command prompt for a list of supported commands.
Appendix A Using BOOTP to configure the IP address A BOOTP is an alternative to RARP that has the advantage of allowing configuration of the subnet mask and gateway. In order to use BOOTP to configure the IP address make sure that BOOTP is installed and running on your host computer (it should appear in the /etc/services file on your host as a real service; type man bootpd or refer to your system documentation for information). BOOTP is usually started up via the /etc/inetd.
Appendix A Using RARP to configure the IP address A A The Brother print server’s IP address can be configured using the Reverse ARP (RARP) facility on your host computer.
Appendix A Using ARP to configure the IP address A If you are unable to use the BRAdmin application and your network does not use a DHCP server, you can also use the ARP command. The ARP command is available on Windows® systems that have TCP/IP installed as well as UNIX systems.
Appendix A Using the TELNET console to configure the IP address A A You can also use the TELNET command to change the IP address. TELNET is an effective method to change the machine’s IP address. But a valid IP address must already be programmed into the print server. Type TELNET at the command prompt of the system prompt, where is the IP address of the print server. When you are connected, push the Return or Enter key to get the “#” prompt.
Appendix A Using the Brother Web BRAdmin server software for IIS to configure the IP address A The Web BRAdmin server software is designed to manage all LAN/WAN Brother network connected devices. By installing the Web BRAdmin server software on a computer running IIS 1, administrators with a web browser can connect to the Web BRAdmin server, which then communicates with the device itself.
Appendix A Installation when using web services (Windows Vista®) A Note • You must configure the IP address on your machine before you proceed with this section. If you have not configured the IP address, see Setting the IP address and subnet mask on page 15. • Verify the host computer and print server are either on the same subnet, or that the router is properly configured to pass data between the two devices. a Click the b The machine’s Web Services Name will be shown with the printer icon.
Appendix A Installation when using a Network Print Queue or Share (printer driver only) A Note If you are going to connect to a shared printer on your network, we recommend that you ask your system administrator about the queue or share name for the printer prior to installation. a b c d e f g Start the CD-ROM installation menu program according to the Quick Setup Guide.
