1 1 - 1 1 Introduction Overview The Brother print server allows you r Brother printer to be shared on a 10/100 Mb Ethernet Network and provides printing services for Windo ws ® 95/98/Me, Windows NT ® 4.0, Windows ® 2000/XP supporting the TCP/IP protocols and Macintosh ® supporting TCP/IP.
Introduction 1 - 2 1 Types of network connection Generally speaking, there are two types of networ k connection: Peer-to-Peer environment and a Network Shared environment. Network connection example Peer-to-Peer printing using TCP/IP In a Peer-to-Peer environment, each comp uter direct ly sends and receives data to and from the Brothe r printer.
Introduction 1 - 3 1 Network shared printing In a network shared environment, each computer sends and receives data t o and from the Brother printer via a centrally controlled computer. This type of computer is often called a “server” or a “pri nt server”.
Introduction 1 - 4 1 Protocols TCP/IP protocols and functionalit ies Protocols are the standardized sets of rules for transmi tting data on a network. Proto cols allow the user to gain access to network connected resources.
Introduction 1 - 5 1 Port9100 Another commonly used printing pro tocol on a TCP/IP network. SMTP client Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) client is used to send e-mails via Internet or Intranet.
