IR Communications
Printers equipped for infrared (IR) communications are
identified by a small “IR” logo on the unit’s keypad. IR
allows wireless communications between the printer and
the host terminal. IR units can also communicate with a
cable as detailed above, however, IR functions are dis-
abled when the cable is plugged in. Cameo units with the
IR option can be configured to conform to the standard
IrDA communications protocol
Linking a Printer to an IrDA Host
IrDA compliant terminals will automatically initiate
communications to the printer. First insure 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 Cameo must face the corresponding window on the
terminal to properly send and receive signals. An IrDA
compliant terminal will seek out any linkable devices and
establish communications between them, even turning
the printer on if necessary.
