COMMUNICATING TO THE PRINTER
The printer must establish communications with a host
terminal which sends the data to be printed. Communi-
cations occur in three basic ways:
By a cable between the printer and its host terminal
Infrared (usually by means of the industry standard
IrDA protocol)
Using the Bluetooth™ wireless protocol
Cable Communications
The Cameo PEP printer can communicate by cable; the
specific cable supplied with your printer will vary with the
host terminal. The 8- pin circular connector on your
communications cable plugs into the serial communica-
tions port on the side of the Cameo PEP printer. It is
keyed to assure correct alignment; do not try to force it if
it does not plug in. The other end of the cable must be
plugged into the host terminal. Communications between
the terminal and the printer is controlled by the applica-
tions running on the terminal and the printer.
