Setting Up and Using a Wireless Connection
3 Set the computer for infrared transmission.
If you are using Windows 98 or Windows 95, open the Control Panel and
double-click the Infrared Monitor, click the Options tab, then click the
“Enable infrared communication” check box (make sure a check mark is
present).
Open the printer driver directly and select the infrared port for the printer.
Click Start, select Settings, and click Printers. Right-click the Canon
BJC-85 printer icon and select Properties from the pop-up menu. Select
the Details button, click the down-arrow for the “Print to the following port”
option, then select the infrared port. For example:
COM4 (Infrared Serial (COM) Port)
Some computers may allocate COM and LPT ports for infrared ports
differently. For details refer to your computer documentation.
4 Arrange the computer with the printer so the infrared ports are facing each
other and not more than three feet (0.8 meter) apart.
The distance between the computer and the printer may be different for
some units; for details refer to your computer documentation.
