Web based management

A simple to use system for managing your network printers, Web Based Management allows you to easily change settings and configure device status alerts without leaving your desk. Because it works through your computer's web browser there's no need to install additional software - perfect for companies who do not have a dedicated IT administrator.

How does it work?
Brother's Web Based Management tool offers you a user-friendly interface to convey information about your printers quickly and clearly. If your printer has run out of paper an animated icon will let you know right away. If you need to amend any printer settings, for example to set duplex printing as standard, you can do this easily on screen.

Scenario: A manufacturing company uses over 1000 Brother network-connected printers, many of which are over 200 miles away in off-site locations. With only a small IT department to manage the printing fleet, Web Based Management has allowed them access to all their printers through the wide area network without installing any new software. Applying new configurations and basic troubleshooting is now simple.
