TCP/IP printing for Unix Systems Brother print servers are supplied with the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) protocol suite. Since virtually all UNIX host computers support TCP/IP, this capability allows a printer to be shared on a UNIX Ethernet network. As with all protocols, TCP/IP communications can proceed concurrently whilst other protocols are active, this means that UNIX, NetWare, Apple, and other computers can share the same Brother Print Server over an Ethernet network. Note The Linux operating system uses the same setup procedures as standard Berkeley UNIX systems. [. . . ] The installation program will then begin installing the files. The port name must begin with the BIP and end with a number, for example, BIP1. You will then see a message about Partial E-mail Print. Partial E-mail Print is the ability of the Brother Internet Print software to break down E-mail Print jobs into smaller sections to prevent a mail file size limitation problem for mail server. You will then be asked to enter the port settings for the remote print server: Enter any unique legal Internet E-mail address for the remote print server (for example emailprinter@xyz. com). Note that Internet E-mail addresses cannot have spaces in them. If you are using WINSOCK, enter your E-mail address and the IP address of your SMTP E-mail server (consult your network administrator if you do not know this address). Also specify if you are going to use the Partial E-mail Print option and Notification type. You will then be asked to re-start your computer. One your computer has re-started you must create a printer on your Windows 95/98/NT4. 0 system using the standard Windows 95/98/NT4. 0 printer setup procedure. To do this, go the Start button, select Settings and then Printers. Select Add Printer to begin the printer installation. Click Next when you get the Add Printer Wizard window (Windows 95/98 only). Select Local Printer (Windows 95/98), My computer (Windows NT4. 0) when you are asked how the printers are connected to your computer and push Next. 6. 7. 8. 9. 15. 5-6 <For Windows 95/98 users> 16. Select the desired model of the remote printer (for example, Brother HL-series). If necessary, click Have Disk to load the driver from the printer's installation diskette. If you have selected a printer driver that is already being used, you have the option of either keeping the existing driver (recommended) or replacing it. Select the desired option and press Next. Select the Brother Internet port (BIP. . . ) and press Next. 17. 18. <For Windows NT4. 0 users> 16. Select the Brother Internet port (BIP. . . ) and press Next. Select the desired model of the remote printer (for example, Brother HL-series). [. . . ] A typical /etc/bootptab file entry might be: xc2:ht=ethernet:ha=00401700c953:\ ip=192. 189. 207. 3:bf=/usr/Firmname. bin: Now log into the print server remote console using TELNET, and execute the following commands: SET LOAD SOTWARE "pathname" SET LOAD ENABLE EXIT Be sure to put the path name in quotes and remember that UNIX names are case-sensitive. Also, make sure that your file protection allows general access to the boot directory. A-16 When you type a CTRL-D or EXIT to exit the remote console, the file Firmname. bin will then be loaded into the print server. The Data LED on the printer front panel will blink during the load process and will go out when the process is complete. If the Data LED does not stop blinking after about two minutes, or start to blink periodically, check to make sure that you correctly entered all parameters and that your network connections are good.
