24 6 Sending and Sharing Pages
Send to a printer
Before trying to send pages to a printer, make sure that the printer supports infrared (IR)
data transfer either using built-in IR or an add-on IR adapter. Your HP CapShare appliance
can send pages to most printers with IR ports. For best results, HP PCL-compatible or
JetSend-compatible printers are recommended.
Note
If you send to a printer and your document does not print, check the printer for any errors.
The HP CapShare appliance cannot detect if the printer is out of paper, has a paper jam,
or has any other error condition.
Printer requirements
The HP CapShare appliance is compatible with most printers that have IR capability. In
order to send information to a printer, you must ensure that IR connectivity is available.
Use the infrared (IR) port
To use IR to connect the HP CapShare appliance to a printer, you simply point the
appliance toward the IR port on the printer and press on the HP CapShare
appliance.
For more information about IR, go to the IrDA website at:
http://www.irda.org
Recover from send errors
If the printer stops receiving a document for any reason, an error message appears on the
HP CapShare appliance. For more information, see the “How do I” tab in the HP CapShare
PC utility. If you have lost the connection, you must reconnect to the IR port within 20
seconds. When reconnected, the send continues where it left off. If the connection is
broken for more than 20 seconds, you must send the page again in order to print it.
Print pages
Pages print as soon as the entire page has been sent. The pages are automatically rotated
or scaled, if needed, to fit on the sheet of paper. If a document does not print, an error
condition may have occurred in the printer.
