I have configured the necessary wireless network setting but I cannot print. What should I do?

If you are using a Novell® system:
Verify that the print server can be seen on the network. To do this, login as the SUPERVISOR (not as someone with supervisor privileges) or ADMIN (for NetWare® 4 or later servers), go into PCONSOLE or NWADMIN, select PRINT SERVER INFORMATION, and select the name of the print server (make sure that you have entered the print server name). If you can see Print Server Status and Control in the menu, then the Brother print server is visible to the network, proceed to the Novell® NetWare® Installation Troubleshooting (To see Novell® NetWare® troubleshooting, click here.). -
If you are running AppleTalk® for Macintosh:
Make sure that you can see the print server name in the Printer List when you select AppleTalk in the Print Center. If it is visible, then the connection is good, so proceed to AppleTalk® Troubleshooting (To see AppleTalk® Troubleshooting, click here.).
