The print server provides printing services for Windows® 2000/XP/XP Professional x64 Edition, Windows Vista™, Windows Server® 2003/ 2003 x64 Edition supporting the TCP/IP protocols and Macintosh OS® X 10.2.4 or greater supporting TCP/IP.
Introduction Network function features 1 1 The Brother HL-4000 Series have the following basic network functions. Network printing 1 The print server provides printing services for Windows® 2000/XP, Windows Vista™ and Windows Server® 2003 supporting the TCP/IP protocols and Macintosh supporting TCP/IP (Mac OS® X 10.2.4 or greater). Management utility 1 BRAdmin Light 1 BRAdmin Light is a utility for initial setup of Brother network connected devices.
Introduction Types of network connection 1 1 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. Windows R Windows R Windows R 4 TCP/IP Windows 3 R 2 1 1 Network Shared 2 Also known as “Server” or “Printer server” 3 Printer 4 TCP/IP, USB or Parallel In a larger network, we recommend a Network Shared printing environment.
Introduction Wireless network connection example (HL-4070CDW) 1 1 Connected to a wireless capable computer with an access point in 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 printer (your printer) is part of this network, it receives all print jobs via an access point.
Introduction An access point is in the network, but the computer is not wireless capable 1 This type of network has a central access point at the heart of the network. The access point is connected to a computer which is not wireless capable with the Ethenet cable. When the Brother wireless printer (your printer) is a 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 SMTP client 1 1 Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) client is used to send E-mails via Internet or Intranet. IPP 1 Internet Printing Protocol (IPP Version 1.0) allows you to print documents directly to any accessible printer via the internet. mDNS 1 mDNS allows the Brother print server to automatically configure itself to work in a Mac OS® X Simple Network Configured system. (Mac OS® X 10.2.4 or greater).
2 Configuring your printer for a network with an Ethernet cable connection 2 Overview 2 Before using your Brother printer in a network environment, you must configure the TCP/IP settings. In this chapter, you will learn the basic steps required to print over the network using the TCP/IP protocol. We recommend that you use the automatic installer application on the CD-ROM we have provided with the printer.
Configuring your printer for a network with an Ethernet cable connection IP addresses, subnet masks and gateways 2 To use the printer in a networked TCP/IP environment, you need to configure the IP address and subnet mask. The IP address you assign to the print server must be on the same logical network as your host computers. If it is not, you must properly configure the subnet mask and the gateway address.
Configuring your printer for a network with an Ethernet cable connection Subnet mask 2 Subnet masks restrict network communication. Example: Computer 1 can talk to Computer 2 2 • Computer 1 IP Address:192.168.1.2 Subnet Mask:255.255.255.0 • Computer 2 IP Address:192.168.1.3 Subnet Mask:255.255.255.0 Note 0 denotes that there is no limit to communication at this part of the address. In the above example, we can communicate with anything that has an IP address that begins with 192.168.1.X.

Troubleshooting General problems 13 CD-ROM is inserted, but does not start automatically 13 If your computer does not support Autorun, the menu will not start automatically after inserting the CD-ROM. In this case, execute Start.exe in the root directory of the CD-ROM. My computer cannot find the printer/print server I cannot make a necessary connection to the printer/print server.
Troubleshooting f If the installation completed successfully, the Firewall on your computer was rejecting the necessary network connection. In this case, you will need to disable the Firewall on your computer whenever you install the network drivers. Note After the Brother software package is installed, enable again your Firewall. For instructions on how to reenable your Firewall software, refer to your User’s Guide or contact the Firewall software manufacturer.
Troubleshooting Network print software installation problems 13 The Brother print server is not found during the setup of the network print software or from the installation of the Brother printer driver. 13 Make sure you have completed the IP address setting of the Brother print server according to Chapter 2 of this User’s Guide before installing the network print software or printer driver. Check the following: a b 13 Make sure that the printer is powered on, is on-line and ready to print.
Troubleshooting Where ipaddress is the print server IP address (note that in some instances it can take up to two minutes for the print server to load its IP address after setting the IP address). e If you have tried a to d above and it does not work, then reset the print server back to the default factory settings and try from the initial setup again. For information on how to reset to the default factory settings, see Restoring the network settings to factory default on page 117.
Troubleshooting Printing problems 13 Print job is not printed 13 Make sure the status and configuration of the print server. Check following: a b Make sure that the printer is powered on, is on-line and ready to print. c Verify that the print server is on your network as follows: Print the Printer Settings Page of the printer and check if the settings such as IP address settings are correct for your network. The problem may be the result of a mismatched or duplicate IP address.
Troubleshooting Protocol-specific troubleshooting 13 Windows® 2000/XP, Windows Vista™ and Windows Server® 2003 IPP troubleshooting 13 I want to use a different Port number other than 631. 13 If you are using Port 631 for IPP printing, you may find that your firewall may not let the print data through. If this is the case, use a different port number (port 80), or configure your Firewall to allow Port 631 data through.
Troubleshooting Wireless network troubleshooting 13 Wireless setup problems 13 The Brother print server is not found during setup using the automatic installer application on the CD-ROM. a b c 13 Make sure that the printer is powered on, is on-line and ready to print. Move your computer closer to the Brother printer and try again. Reset the print server back to its default factory settings and try again.
Troubleshooting Wireless connection problem 13 The wireless network connection is sometimes disabled. 13 The wireless network connection status is affected by the environment where the Brother printer and other wireless devices are located. The following conditions may cause connection problems: A concrete or metal framed wall is installed between the Brother printer and the access point.
A Appendix A A Using services A A service is a resource that can be accessed by computers that wish to print to the Brother print server. 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 /etc/inetd.conf file, so you may need to enable it by removing the “#” in front of the bootp entry in that file. For example, a typical bootp entry in the /etc/inetd.conf file would be: #bootp dgram udp wait /usr/etc/bootpd bootpd -i Depending on the system, this entry might be called “bootps” instead of “bootp”. Note In order to enable BOOTP, simply use an editor to delete the“#” (if there is no “#”, then BOOTP is already enabled).
Appendix A Using APIPA to configure the IP address A The Brother print server supports the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) protocol. With APIPA, clients automatically configure an IP address and subnet mask when a DHCP server is not available. The device chooses it's own IP address in the range 169.254.1.0 through to 169.254.254.255. The subnet mask is automatically set to 255.255.0.0 and the gateway address is set to 0.0.0.0. By default, the APIPA protocol is enabled.
Appendix A (web browser), Telnet (using the SET IP ADDRESS command) or factory reset the print server (which will then allow you to use the ARP command again). Using the Telnet console to configure the IP address A You can also use the Telnet command to change the IP address. Telnet is an effective method to change the printer’s IP address. But a valid IP address must already be programmed into the print server.
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.
