Printing with the Fast Infrared Port (Wireless Printing)
The fast infrared (FIR) port is located on the lower right corner of the printer. This port is compliant with the specifications determined by the Infrared Data Association (IrDA). On the right side of the FIR port is a status light that indicates when the port is active. The FIR port transmits data at speeds of up to 4 MB per second. When the IR connection is established, the FIR status light comes on. If the connection is broken, or when the print job is complete, the FIR status light goes off.
