Printing documents
Printing is possible only from the Notes applica-
tion, using an IrDA compatible infrared port.
The communicator supports direct printing to
the HP LaserJet 5P, a PCL printer, and the HP La-
serJet 5MP, a Postscript printer. Other printers
may be used if the proper printer drivers are first
downloaded onto the communicator. These
printer drivers may be installed with the Install/
Remove software function found in the System
application.
For more information on the printers supported,
read the readme.txt file on the diskette supplied
in the communicator sales package, or see the
Club.Nokia home page at www.club.nokia.com.
For specific information on the printer you are
using, please refer to the manufacturer’s User’s
Guide.
To establish an infrared connection:
• Make sure that the communicator’s infrared
port faces the infrared port of the printer.
‚ Keep the infrared connection clear. In the
event the infrared connection is obstructed for
too long (for example, something is moved be-
tween the infrared sensors or the communica-
tor is moved), printing is interrupted.
ƒ To print a document, open the document,
press Print/Send and select Print.
After the communicator has checked that you do
not already have an active PC connection, it
starts to scan for a printer. Because you can only
have one active connection, you cannot print
while you are transferring files from the commu-
nicator to a PC. If the printer cannot be found, a
failure note is shown and the editor view re-
turns. If the correct printer is found, the printer
driver is selected automatically and the printing
view shows the name of the document and the
selected printer.
„ Press Start to start printing.
Printing problems
Though the communicator may detect a con-
nected printer, certain complications might still
occur.
If the printer found is not recognized:
Select the correct printer driver manually.
You can choose another printer after pressing
Printers.
If the printer found is not recognized, and the
communicator does not have the correct driver
for the printer, you can try to print the document
using one of the available printer drivers.
