BRPrint Auditor (for Windows®)3
The BRPrint Auditor software brings the monitoring power of Brother network management tools to locally 
connected machines. This utility allows a client computer to collect usage and status information from a 
machine connected via the parallel or USB interface. The BRPrint Auditor can then pass this information to 
another computer on the network running BRAdmin Professional 3 or Web BRAdmin 1.45 or greater. This 
allows the administrator to check items such as page counts, toner and drum status and the firmware version. 
In addition to reporting to Brother network management applications this utility can E-mail the usage and 
status information directly to a predefined E-mail address in a CSV or XML file format (SMTP Mail support 
required). The BRPrint Auditor utility also supports E-mail notification for reporting warning and error 
conditions.

For increased security Web Based Management also support HTTPS. For more information see Chapter 14 
of the Network User’s Guide on the CD-ROM we have supplied.

a printer driver. The remote PC does not have to be connected to a network.

receiving data.
When you use the parallel interface, you can turn the high-speed and bi-directional parallel communications 
on or off by using the control panel buttons to access PARALLEL in the INTERFACE menu. (See Menu table 
on page 89.)
