Transmit Delay

Purpose:

To define the amount of time, in seconds, the printer must wait before transmitting meaningful infrared data to the host computer, as well as the amount of time the printer requests that the host computer wait before transmitting infrared data.

Values:

Auto*

Printer sets the Transmit Delay value during a power on reset to maximize link

 

performance (recommended).

None

No delay is imposed by the printer. However, not all hosts can communicate without some

 

transmission delays.

1...15

User selects a Transmit Delay value between 1 and 15 seconds. If you have trouble

 

printing using the infrared port, selecting a high Transmit Delay value, such as 15, may

 

resolve the problem.

Window Size

Purpose:

To specify the maximum number of infrared frames the printer can receive before sending an acknowledgment to the host computer.

Values:

Auto* Printer sets the Window Size value during a power on reset to maximize link performance (recommended).

1User sets the Window Size to one frame (1). If you have trouble printing using the infrared port, changing the Window Size menu item to 1 may resolve the problem.
