Cable Communications

All Cameo printers can communicate by cable; the specif-

ic cable supplied with your printer will vary with the host ter-

minal. The 8-pin circular connector on your communications

cable plugs into the serial communications port on the side of

the Cameo printer. (Refer to the Speciﬁcations Section of this

manual for communications port pin assignments.)

The connector 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 be-

tween the terminal and the printer is controlled by the applica-

tions running on the terminal and the printer.

IR Communications

Printers equipped for infrared (IR) communications are

identiﬁed by a small “IR” logo on the unit’s keypad. IR allows

wireless communications between the printer and the host

terminal. IR units can also communicate with a cable as de-

tailed above, however, IR functions are disabled when the

cable is plugged in. Cameo units with the IR option can be

conﬁgured to conform to the standard IrDA communications

protocol

Linking a Printer to an IrDA Host

IrDA compliant terminals will automatically initiate commu-

nications to the printer. First insure that there is a direct line

of sight between the printer and the terminal that will be send-

ing data. The IR window on the front of the Cameo must face

the corresponding window on the terminal to properly send

and receive signals. An IrDA compliant terminal will seek out

any linkable devices and establish communications between

them, even turning the printer on if necessary.
