IrDA Unit
The IrDA unit can be used with a variety of IrDA-compliant portable 
devices. The unit also comes with a harness and the IrDA controller 
board. Once these have been connected to the printer’s controller 
board, the IrDA unit is ready for operation.
For instructions on setting-up the IrDA unit, please refer to the Set-Up 
Instructions that come with the unit.
Using the Infrared Port
The optional infrared port of this printer complies with the 
specifications stipulated by the Infrared Data Association (IrDA). A 
status light in front of the infrared unit indicates when the port is 
active.
The infrared port can be used with a wide variety of IrDA-compliant 
portable devices. The actual method you should use for printing 
depends on the type of device and the operating system it uses. 
Consult the user documentation that comes with the portable 
equipment for details on printing with it.
The infrared transfers data similarly to a serial port, except it does not 
use a cable and it operates at speeds of up to 4Mbps per second.
