The Window Size setting specifies the maximum number of infrared frames the printer can

 

 

receive before it must send an acknowledgment to the host computer. If Auto is selected, the

 

 

printer automatically sets the window size during power-on to maximize link performance.

 

 

In most cases, Auto is the recommended setting. If you have trouble printing using the infrared

 

 

port, changing the Window Size setting to 1 may resolve the problem.

 

 

 

Transmit Delay

1…15

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Transmit Delay setting defines the amount of time the printer must wait before trans-

 

 

mitting meaningful infrared data to the host computer, as well as the amount of time the

 

 

printer requests the host computer to wait before it transmits infrared data. If Auto is selected,

 

 

the printer automatically sets the Transmit Delay value during power-on to maximize link

 

 

performance.

 

 

In most cases, Auto is the recommended setting. If you have trouble printing using the infrared

 

 

port, selecting a high Transmit Delay setting, such as 15, may resolve the problem.

The maximum baud rate possible for both the printer and the infrared adapter is automatically

 

 

set during power-on. However, if your printer is situated in a bright or highly reflective

 

 

environment, you may experience intermittent communication problems. If you do, select a

 

 

lower baud rate for the infrared connection.
