For Wireless Network Users

Note

For wireless network interface users

Before you begin

First you must configure the wireless network settings of your machine to communicate with your network access point/router. After the machine is configured to communicate with your access point/router, computers on your network will have access to the machine. To use the machine from these computers, you will need to install the drivers and software. The following steps will guide you through the configuration and installation process.

To achieve optimum results with normal everyday document printing, place the Brother machine as close to the network access point/router as possible with minimal obstructions. Large objects and walls between the two devices as well as interference from other electronic devices can affect the data transfer speed of your documents.

Due to these factors, wireless may not be the best method of connection for all types of documents and applications. If you are printing large files, such as multi-page documents with mixed text and large graphics, you may want to consider choosing USB for the fastest throughput speed.

If you have previously configured the wireless settings of the machine you must reset the network (LAN) settings before you can configure the wireless settings again. On your machine, press Menu. Press s or t to display Network, and then press Network. Press s or t to display Network Reset, and then press Network Reset. Press Yes to accept. Hold down Yes for 2 seconds to confirm.

The following instructions are for infrastructure mode (connected to a computer through an access point/router).

Infrastructure Mode

a Access point/router b Wireless Network machine (your machine) c Wireless capable computer connected to the access point/router d Wired computer connected to the access point/router

Please make sure the wireless network settings of the machine match the access point/router.

To set up your machine in Ad-hoc mode (connected to a wireless capable computer without an access point/router) you can find instructions in the Network User’s Guide on the CD-ROM.

You can view the Network User’s Guide by following the instructions below. 1 Turn on your computer. Insert the CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. For Windows 2 Choose your model and the language. The CD-ROM top menu will appear. 3 Click Documentation, and then click PDF documents. The top page will appear. 4 Click Network User’s Guide. For Macintosh: 2 Double-click Documentation, and then double-click your language folder. 3 Double-click top.pdf, and then click Network User’s Guide.
