Sleep Time
When the printer does not receive data for a certain period of time (timeout), it enters sleep mode. Sleep 
mode acts as though the printer was turned off. The default timeout is 5 minutes. When Intelligent Sleep 
Mode is selected, it is automatically adjusted to the most suitable time-out setting depending on the 
frequency of your printer use. While the printer is in sleep mode, the LED is off, but the printer can still 
receive data from the computer. Receiving a print file or document automatically wakes up the printer to 
start printing. Pressing the GO button will also wake up the printer. 
Sleep mode can be turned off. To turn sleep mode off, go to the Advanced tab, select Device Options 
and then select Sleep Time. Double click the word Sleep Time in the Sleep Time screen, this will allow 
the Sleep Time Off function to appear, click Sleep Time Off to stop the printer going into sleep mode. 
The Sleep Time Off function can be hidden by double clicking the word Sleep Time in the Sleep Time 
screen again. We recommend that you keep Sleep mode on to save power.
If you are using Windows NT® 4.0, Windows® 2000 or XP, you can access the Advanced Options 
tab by clicking Advanced... button in the Layout tab or the Paper / Quality tab.

Software for Networks 
BRAdmin Professional
The BRAdmin Professional software is a utility for managing your Brother network enabled printers that 
are running under Windows® 95/98/Me, Windows NT® 4.0 and Windows® 2000/XP. 
It allows you to easily configure and check the status of your printer on the network.
Driver Deployment Wizard 
This installer includes the Windows® PCL driver and Brother network port driver (LPR and NetBIOS). 
The administrator should set up the IP address, Gateway and Subnet with BRAdmin Professional before 
using this software.
If the administrator then installs the printer driver and port driver using this software, the administrator 
can save the file to the file server or send the file by E-mail to users. Then, each user just clicks that file 
to have the printer driver, port driver, IP address, and so on, automatically copied to their PC. 
Web BRAdmin
The Web BRAdmin software is designed to manage all LAN/WAN Brother network connected devices. 
By installing the Web BRAdmin server software on a computer running IIS*, Administrators with a Web 
browser can connect to the Web BRAdmin server, which then communicates with the device itself. 
Unlike the BRAdmin Professional software - which is designed for Windows
® systems only - the Web 
BRAdmin server software can be accessed from any client computer with a web browser that supports 
Java 2.
You can download the Web BRAdmin software from our web site at 
http://solutions.brother.com/webbradmin
