Caveat, I haven't set up that printer, but I use another Brother network printer. Somewhere in the docs for your printer will be the IP address for it. Once you have the address you can use your browser to access the printer, mine has a web interface. If you address is somewhat unusual, other than 192.168.x.x, the printer may no be viewable. Not sure if they have the capacity to request a dhcp lease/address. -- Peace, Greg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
