Home > Security > Before Using Network Security Features Before Using Network Security Features Your 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 unauthorised access to the machine. We recommend disabling the FTP and TFTP protocols. Accessing the machine using these protocols is not secure.
Home > Security > Configure Certificates for Device Security Configure Certificates for Device Security You must configure a certificate to manage your networked machine securely using SSL/TLS. You must use Web Based Management to configure a certificate.
Home > Security > Configure Certificates for Device Security > Supported Security Certificate Features Supported Security Certificate Features Your machine supports the use of multiple security certificates, which allows secure authentication and communication with the machine. The following security certificate features can be used with the machine: • SSL/TLS communication The Brother machine supports the following: • Pre-installed certificate Your machine has a pre-installed self-signed certificate.
Home > Security > Configure Certificates for Device Security > Step by Step Guide for Creating and Installing a Certificate Step by Step Guide for Creating and Installing a Certificate There are two options when choosing a security certificate: use a self-signed certificate or use a certificate from a Certificate Authority (CA). Option 1 Self-Signed Certificate 1. Create a self-signed certificate using Web Based Management. 2. Install the self-signed certificate on your computer.
Home > Security > Configure Certificates for Device Security > Create a Self-signed Certificate Create a Self-signed Certificate 1. Start your web browser. 2. Type "https://machine's IP address" in your browser's address bar (where "machine's IP address" is the machine's IP address). For example: https://192.168.1.2 • If you are using a Domain Name System or enable a NetBIOS name, you can type another name, such as "SharedPrinter" instead of the IP address.
Home > Security > Configure Certificates for Device Security > Create CSR and Install a Certificate from a Certificate Authority (CA) Create CSR and Install a Certificate from a Certificate Authority (CA) If you already have a certificate from an external trusted CA, you can store the certificate and private key on the machine and manage them by importing and exporting.
Home > Security > Configure Certificates for Device Security > Create CSR and Install a Certificate from a Certificate Authority (CA) > Create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) Create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is a request sent to a Certificate Authority (CA) to authenticate the credentials contained within the certificate. We recommend installing a Root Certificate from the CA on your computer before creating the CSR. 1. Start your web browser. 2.
10. Click Save. • Follow your CA's policy regarding the method to send a CSR to your CA. • If you are using the Enterprise root CA of Windows Server 2008/2008 R2/2012/2012 R2/2016/2019, we recommend using the Web Server for the certificate template to securely create the Client Certificate.

Home > Security > Use SSL/TLS > Introduction to SSL/TLS Introduction to SSL/TLS Secure Socket Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) is an effective method of protecting data sent over a local or wide area network (LAN or WAN). It works by encrypting data, such as a print job, sent over a network, so anyone trying to capture it will not be able to read it. SSL/TLS will work with other forms of security such as WPA keys and firewalls.
Home > Security > Use SSL/TLS > Introduction to SSL/TLS > Brief History of SSL/TLS Brief History of SSL/TLS SSL/TLS was originally created to secure web traffic information, particularly data sent between web browsers and servers. For example, when you use Internet Explorer for Internet Banking and you see https:// and the little padlock icon in the web browser, you are using SSL.
Home > Security > Use SSL/TLS > Introduction to SSL/TLS > Benefits of Using SSL/TLS Benefits of Using SSL/TLS The primary benefit of using SSL/TLS is to guarantee secure printing over an IP network by restricting unauthorised users from reading data sent to the machine. SSL's key selling point is that it can be used to print confidential data securely. For example, an HR department in a large company may be printing wage slips on a regular basis.

Home > Routine Maintenance > Replace the Ink Cartridges Replace the Ink Cartridges Your Brother machine is equipped with an ink dot counter. The ink dot counter automatically monitors the level of ink in each of the four ink cartridges. When the machine detects that an ink cartridge is running out of ink, the LEDs will light up or blink. Even though the machine tells you to replace an ink cartridge, there will be a small amount of ink left in the ink cartridge.
3. Open the new ink cartridge bag, and take out the ink cartridge. IMPORTANT • DO NOT touch the ink cartridge in the area indicated (1); this can prevent the machine from detecting the cartridge. 1 4. Insert the ink cartridge in the direction of the arrow on the label. Each colour has its own correct position. 5. Gently push the area marked “PUSH” until the ink cartridge locks into place, and then close the ink cartridge cover. The machine resets the ink dot counter.
