Overview 1
The Brother printer can be shared on a 10/100Mb wired or IEEE 802.11b/802.11g wireless (HL-4070CDW
only) Ethernet network using the internal network print server. The print server provides printing services for
Windows

2000/XP/XP Professional x64 Edition, Windows Vista™, Windows Server
®
2003/
2003 x64 Edition supporting the TCP/IP protocols and Macintosh OS
®
X 10.2.4 or greater supporting TCP/IP.
The following chart shows what network features and connections are supported by each operating system.

To achieve optimum results with normal every day document printing, place the Brother printer as close to
the network 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 photos on glossy paper or multi-page documents with
mixed text and large graphics, you may want to consider choosing wired Ethernet for a faster data transfer,
or USB for the fastest throughput speed.
