Introduction 1
Network features 1
Your Brother machine can be shared on a 10/100 MB wired1 or IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless (for wireless
models) Ethernet network using the internal network print server. The print server supports various functions
and methods of connection depending on the operating system you are running on a network supporting
TCP/IP. The following chart shows what network features and connections are supported by each operating
system.
• Although the Brother machine can be used in both a wired1 and wireless network, only one connection
method can be used at a time. However, a wireless network connection and Wi-Fi Direct™ connection, or
a wired network connection and Wi-Fi Direct connection can be used at the same time.
• For details, please refer to the Wi-Fi Direct™ Guide located on the Manuals download page for your model
on the Brother Solutions Center (http://solutions.brother.com/

Other Management Utilities 2
Your Brother machine has the following management utilities other than the BRAdmin Light utility. You can
change your network settings using these utilities.
Web Based Management (web browser) 2
A standard web browser can be used to change your print server settings using the HTTP (Hyper Text
Transfer Protocol) or HTTPS (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer). (See How to
configure the machine settings using Web Based Management (web browser) on page 45.)
BRAdmin Professional 3 utility (Windows®) 2
BRAdmin Professional 3 is a utility for more advanced management of network connected Brother devices.
This utility can search for Brother products on your network and view the device status from an easy to read
Explorer style window that changes color identifying the status of each device. You can configure network

For users who want to monitor locally connected machines, install the Print Auditor Client software on the
client PC. This utility allows you to monitor machines that are connected to a client PC via the USB or parallel
interface from BRAdmin Professional 3.
For more information and to download the software, visit us at http://solutions.brother.com/
• Please use the latest version of the BRAdmin Professional 3 utility that is available as a download from

BRPrint Auditor (Windows®) 2
The BRPrint Auditor software brings the monitoring power of Brother network management tools to locally
connected machines. This utility allows a client computer to collect usage and status information from a
Brother machine connected via the parallel or USB interface. The BRPrint Auditor can then pass this
information to another computer on the network running BRAdmin Professional 3. This allows the
administrator to check items such as page counts, toner and drum status and the firmware version. In addition
to reporting to Brother network management applications this utility can E-mail the usage and status
information directly to a predefined E-mail address in a CSV or XML file format (SMTP Mail support required).
The BRPrint Auditor utility also supports E-mail notification for reporting warning and error conditions.

Overview 3
To connect your machine to your wireless network, we recommend following one of the setup methods
outlined in the Quick Setup Guide.
The wireless setup method using the installer CD-ROM and a USB cable is the easiest method for setup.
For additional wireless configuration methods, please read this chapter for more details on how to configure
the wireless network settings. For information on TCP/IP settings, see How to change your machine’s
network settings (IP address, Subnet mask and Gateway) on page 4.
• To achieve optimum results with normal everyday document printing, place the Brother machine as close
to the WLAN 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
1
graphics, you may want to consider choosing wired Ethernet for a faster data transfer
fastest throughput speed.
• Although the Brother machine can be used in both a wired

• If you configure your machine using EAP-TLS Authentication, you must install the Client Certificate issued
by a CA (Certificate Authority) before you start configuration. Contact your network administrator about the
Client Certificate. If you have installed more than one certificate, we recommend you write down the
certificate name you want to use. For details on installing the certificate, see Using Certificates for device
security on page 55.
• If you verify your machine using the Common Name of the Server Certificate, we recommend you write
down the Common Name before you start configuration. Contact your network administrator about the

• If you have previously configured the wireless settings of the machine, you must reset the LAN settings
before you can configure the wireless settings again.
To reset the LAN settings, see Reset the network settings to the factory default on page 39.
• If your router uses WEP encryption, enter the key used as the first WEP key. Your Brother machine
supports the use of the first WEP key only.
If you are configuring your machine for a smaller wireless network, such as your home environment:
• To configure your machine for an existing wireless network using the SSID and Network Key (if
required), see Manual configuration from the control panel on page 18.
• If your WLAN access point/router is set to not broadcast the SSID name, see Configuring your machine
when the SSID is not broadcast on page 20.
• If you are configuring your machine for Ad-hoc mode, see Configuration in Ad-hoc mode on page 31.
If you are configuring your machine for an IEEE 802.1x supported wireless network, see Configuring your
machine for an enterprise wireless network on page 22.
If your WLAN access point/router supports WPS or AOSS™, see One push configuration using WPS
(Wi-Fi Protected Setup) or AOSS™ on page 26.
If you are configuring your machine using WPS (PIN Method), see Configuration using the PIN Method of
