To use the machine as a network scanner, the machine must be configured with a TCP/IP address. You can
set or change the address settings from the control panel (see uu Network User's Guide: Printing the
Network Configuration Report) or by using the BRAdmin Professional software. If you installed the machine
following the instructions for a network user (uu Quick Setup Guide) then the machine should already be
configured for your network.
Note
• For network scanning, a maximum of 25 clients can be connected to one machine on a network. For
example, if 30 clients try to connect at a time, 5 of those clients will not be shown on the LCD.

®
) If your PC is protected by a firewall and is unable to network scan, you may need to
configure the firewall settings to allow communication through port number 54925 and 137. (See Before
using the Brother software uu page 116.)
