• Make sure that the printer is within 1 m (3 ft) of the
PC/notebook, with the swivel head of the HP Infrared
Adapter pointing directly at the infrared port of the
PC/notebook.
• Make sure that there are no obstacles between the
infrared ports on the printer and the PC/notebook.
• Make sure that the infrared port of the PC/notebook
is IrDA-compliant. Look for the IrDA logo in the
documentation for the PC.
• Make sure that the settings for COM, IRQ, and I/O
address are correct.
• Make sure that there are no other infrared devices
operating in the immediate area. It is also possible
that sunlight or bright artificial light can interfere
with infrared communication.

PC’s infrared port.
