I've got a Brother MFC 7820N which works well with my VMS systems, and 
others.  But I'm not using DCPS.

$ Init  /queue -
         /start -
         /noblock -
         /schedule=nosize -
         /protection=(W:WE) -
         /default=(noburst,nofeed,noflag,notrailer,form=DFE) -
         /no_initial_ff -
         /processor=TCPIP$TELNETSYM -
         /on="BROTHER_IP:9100" -
         LASER

That mentioned, it's been so long since I set any of this up that I 
don't remember where the "BROTHER_IP:9100" comes from ...

Getting old and senile really sucks ...

As for Paul, leave him alone.  The TCP/IP is much more important.
