Bright lights are interfering
with the signal.
Make sure that no bright light
is shining directly into either IR
port. Bright light of any kind
(sunlight, incandescent light,
fluorescent light, or light from
an infrared remote control,

and VCRs) shining directly into
one of the IR ports may cause
interference. Position the
device closer to the IR port on
the printer.
The printer prints only part of a
page or document.
The connection has been
interrupted during
transmission.
IrDA-compliant devices are
designed to recover from
temporary connection
interruptions. Re-establish the
connection. (Depending on the
device you are using, it can
take anywhere from 3 to 40
seconds to re-establish the
connection.)
