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 keypad

(refer to the Controls section of this manual) of the

Cameo PEP 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.
