Types of Network Connections
Network Connection Example
Peer-to-Peer printing using TCP/IP
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.
■ In a smaller network of 2 or 3 computers, we recommend the Peer-to-Peer printing method as it is easier
to configure than the Network Shared Printing method described on the following page. See Network
Shared Printing on page 4.
■ Each computer must use the TCP/IP Protocol.
■ The Brother machine needs an appropriate IP address configuration.
■ If you are using a router, the Gateway address must be configured on the computers and the Brother
machine.
