4.4.5 Installation Procedure (When using the IrCOMM supporting IrDA)
When using the IrDA interface supporting the IrCOMM, such as, IrDA interface built in a laptop PC, the
IrCOMM Protocol should be used.
1 Confirm the IrDA settings of the PC in the following way.
Turn on the printer while pressing and holding the [FEED] key on the printer to start the printer in the
system mode. Hold the [FEED] key until the indicator LED starts to blink in green. Since a diagnostic test
result is automatically printed, confirm that the settings fo the IrDA interface are "IrCOMM".
NOTE: Do not press the [FEED] key after the diagnostic test printing. Doing so causes the printer to enter
another mode where printer parameters cannot be set.
2 Run the firmware downloader, "B-SP2D RFLAN F/W Download Tool", on the PC.
3 Confirm that the settings of the downloader are as follows:
Control port of the Com Settings is IrDA: IrCOMM.
Vertual port for the IrDA is selected for the Com Settings Port.
NOTE: When the OS is Windows 2000 or Windows XP, COM port setting will be ineffective.
4 Place the PC and the printer so that their IrDA interface windows face each other. Then, click on the [Start]
button on the screen to be ready for downloading. (When the [Start] button is clicked, the printer's LED will
blink in green.)
