! Make sure that the operating system on your computer

 

includes an FIR driver and your application uses a

 

compatible driver. (Note that complex pages take longer to

 

print.)

 

! Position the HP Fast InfraRed Connect within the range of

 

operation described in Printing a Job on page 182, and

 

make sure that no object is blocking the connection. (This

 

object could be a hand, paper, books, or even bright light.)

 

! Make sure that the two FIR ports are clean (free from dirt

 

and grease).

 

! Bright light of any kind (sunlight, incandescent light,

 

fluorescent light, or light from an infrared remote control,

 

such as those used for TVs and VCRs) shining directly into

 

one of the FIR ports might cause interference. Make sure

 

that no bright light is shining directly into either FIR port.

 

! Position the portable device closer to the FIR port on the

 

printer.
