Understanding infrared
The printer includes an infrared (IR) port that can access and print information sent to it
by another infrared device. If you have a device with infrared capability, such as a
personal digital assistant (PDA), laptop computer, cell phone, or digital camera, you
can transfer files directly from your infrared device to the printer for fast wireless
printing. The printer communicates with devices that use HP JetSend , OBEX or IrLPT .
Refer to your infrared device documentation to see if it uses one of these methods.
For more information on how to print files from infrared, see “Printing files
using infrared (IR)” on page 36.
Supported devices
Some of the devices supported by infrared include:
•
Laptop or notebook computers with infrared capability (including the HP
Omnibook). It is recommended that you install the PrintConnect software that
comes with the printer to configure your PC laptop or notebook computer to print
using infrared. Macintosh PowerBook users only need to install the included
printer software.
• Some Personal Digital Assistants (including the Palm product line). If
your PDA uses a Palm operating system, it is recommended that you
install the IrPrint software that comes with the printer so your
documents print with the proper formatting.
• Some Windows CE devices (including the HP Jornada).
• Digital cameras with infrared capability and HP JetSend (including
the HP PhotoSmart C500, 618, and 912).
• Some cellular phones with infrared capability.
