IR Communications

Printers equipped for infrared (IR) communications are iden-

tified by a small “IR” logo on the unit’s label. (IR functions are

disabled if a communications cable is used.) Printers with the

IR option conform to the IrDA communications protocol.

Ensure that there is a direct line of sight between the printer

and the terminal that will be sending data. The IR window on

the front of the printer must face the corresponding window

on the terminal to properly send and receive signals.

IrDA compliant terminals will automatically initiate communi-

cations to the printer.  An IrDA terminal will seek out any link-

able devices and establish communications between them,

even turning the printer on if necessary.
