Glossary

Simple descriptions of terms used in this manual are provided below. Be sure to look up any terms that you are unfamiliar with.

Bluetooth

A short-range wireless communication technology

 

using a radio frequency; Regulated by conven-

 

tions called “profiles”, Bluetooth enables commu-

 

nication between devices with the same profile.

 

This printer has the serial port profile built in.

IrDA

A wireless communication protocol using infrared

 

transmission; When infrared is used, communica-

 

tion is wireless; however, a line of sight to the

 

infrared port is required. Since the various ver-

 

sions (1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4) are regulated by

 

the transmission distance and speed, compatibil-

 

ity is often difficult. This printer is equipped with

 

IrDA Ver. 1.3, but it can communicate with devices

 

compatible with Ver. 1.2 and Ver. 1.3.
