Need Help Setting up Brother 8460N network printer connected directly to router
I have a brother 8460N printer that I am trying to setup to print on a network and be connected to the router only. I am used to setting up network printers by hooking them into one computer and printing through that computer. So this is my first time setting it up this way. I basically just need someone to tell me how this works and what I need to do after i've connected the printer into the router via the ethernet cable.

Adding a printserver does not really help: it will also need to be given a static address, and you still need to create a TCP/IP port...

ok so i got it set up for the computers runnin xp but now i have two that are running vista and I set it up the exact same way but it wont print. any ideas?
How did you setup the XP boxes? TCP?
Do you have the correct driver for Vista? The port setup should be the same as for XP.
LIke to know if he got it setup for the Vista Box, or what additional steps were taken? Daniel?
Again, my thanks!
