Quick Setup Guide
Read the "Safety Sheet" first to ensure that you use this printer safely. Read this "Quick Setup Guide" before you set up the printer.
Before you can use the printer, you must set up the hardware and install the driver.
Identify the operating system on your computer (Windows® 95 / 98 / Me, Windows NT® 4.0, Windows® 2000 / XP or Macintosh® ).
The interface cable is not a standard accessory. Please purchase the appropriate interface cable for the interface you intend to use (Parallel, USB or Network).
Most existing parallel cables support bi-directional communication, but some might have an incompatible pin assignment or may not be IEEE 1284 compliant.
If you are an Administrator: Configure your network printer settings referring to the Network Quick Setup Guide (reverse side).
Some illustrations are based on the HL-1870N.

Network Quick Setup Guide
For HL-1850 users: If you are going to connect the printer to your network, purchase the optional Network board (NC-4100h).
If you are going to connect the printer to your network, we recommend that you contact your system administrator prior to installation.
If you are an Administrator: Configure your network printer settings referring to the following instructions.
The default password for the print server is 'access'. You can use the BRAdmin Professional software or a web browser to change this password.
For the Administrator (For Windows® Users Only)
Install the BRAdmin Professional Configuration utility
The BRAdmin Professional software is designed to manage your Brother network connected devices. For example, Brother network ready printers and Brother network ready Multifunction devices can be managed using the BRAdmin Professional software. The BRAdmin Professional software can also be used to manage devices from other manufacturers whose products support the SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol).
For more information on the BRAdmin Professional utility go to http://solutions.brother.com
