Printing with the optional HP Fast InfraRed Receiver Note The optional HP Fast InfraRed (FIR) Receiver enables wireless printing from any IRDAcompliant portable device (such as a laptop computer) to the printer. The printing connection is maintained by positioning the sending infrared port within operating range. The connection is permanently broken if the sending port is moved out of operation range or if anything passing between the ports blocks transmission for more than 40 seconds. (This block could be a hand, paper, or even direct sunlight.) For more information, see the user guide that came with the optional HP Fast InfraRed Receiver. If your operating system does not have infrared software installed, contact your computer manufacturer for drivers and installation instructions. Note Note Setting up to print with Windows (all versions) Before launching the InfraRed Driver, complete the following steps: 1 Click Start, click Settings, and then click Printers. 2 Select the HP LaserJet 9500, or 9500hdn as your default printer. 3 While in the same Printers folder, choose Properties then Details, and make sure that Virtual Infrared LPT Port is selected. 4 Select the file to print. Setting up to print with Macintosh computers This feature is not supported in OS X. The first step for setting up an infrared printer is creating a Desktop Printer icon using the Desktop Printer Utility. By default, the Desktop Printer Utility is located in the Apple Extras/Apple LaserWriter folder on the hard drive. Printer IR will not be an option if the Infrared Control Panel and extension are not active. In addition, the infrared print capability is possible only with the HP LaserWriter version 8.6 driver or later. 1 Launch the Desktop Utility. 2 Select Printer IR (Infrared) and click OK. 3 Change PostScript Printer Description (PPD) File to match the printer. 4 On the File menu, select Save. 5 Enter a name and location for the desktop printer icon and click OK. Once the icon is on the desktop (or saved elsewhere), printer options need to be manually configured. This step is essentially the same as selecting Configure after setting up a printer in the Chooser. To set the options, highlight the Desktop Printer icon and select Change Setup from the Printing menu. 4 Printing 149
