Hi Rod
The printer may be set-up to pick up a DHCP address when you plug it into a
port then you should be able to either telnet to that ip or more likely http
into it and it'll have some basic config page where you can give it a
dedicated ip and sort out protocols, settings etc. Then once you've given it
an address you can set it up from your print server.
I have not used brother but most 'network ready' devices work in a similar
way, there may also be some software from brother needed which will
'discover' the printer once it's networked. Like Jet admin for HP?

Subject: [windows2000] A question about setting up a printer via RJ-45
connectors
I've got a new Brother printer at work. They all seem to come with a =
RF-45
connector and the claim that they are "network ready".
My problem is I have no idea how to make this "network ready" printer
available as a network device. The only way I've ever made a printer
available, is by connecting it directly to a PC of some sort. How do I =
make
something that, I suppose, doesn't connect directly to a printer, a =
"network
device"?
