Application properties

A Device Registration Service application profile for the Unified Client for Brother specifies connection information for an AutoStore server and a Print Manager server. This information allows a device to use capture and print management services on these servers.

These properties appear in the Device Registration Service Details pane when you add or edit a Brother Unified Client application. You cannot change the application type for an existing application.
