DNS client 1
The Brother print server supports the Domain Name System (DNS) client function. This function allows the
print server to communicate with other devices by using its DNS name.
NetBIOS name resolution 1
Network Basic Input/Output System name resolution enables you to obtain the IP address of the other device
using its NetBIOS name during the network connection.
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.
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. It enables interactive data transmission.
IPP 1
The Internet Printing Protocol (IPP Version 1.0) allows you to print documents directly to any accessible
machine via the internet.
Note
For the IPPS protocol, see Security protocols on page 19.
mDNS 1
mDNS allows the Brother print server to automatically configure itself to work in a Mac OS X Simple Network
Configured system.
