HP LaserJet 5P/5MP, 6P/6MP Printer Service Supplement New Product Features System Requirements • Hardware • Both the primary and secondary devices must be equipped with an IrDA-compliant IR component. Older, non-IrDAcompliant devices may not be compatible with the HP LaserJet 5P/5MP and 6P/6MP printers. • Software • The primary device must be loaded during boot-up with software provided by the manufacturer for infrared operation. • The primary device must be properly configured with an infrared COM port, IRQ level, and base address value. • The infrared port must be installed and selected in the Printers section of the Windows Control Panel. • Software drivers • The IR driver for Windows 3.1 is available through hardcopy fulfillment. The driver shipped is proprietary to Extended Systems, Inc. (ESI) and is supported by Hewlett-Packard to the level of identifying the cause as the ESI driver. Beyond that, the call must be escalated to ESI. The ESI driver is not available through HP's Electronic Fulfillment. • The IR driver for Windows 95 is the Microsoft IRDA supported driver. It is available on the Microsoft electronic BBS. After November 1995, machines manufactured with Windows 95 will already have this driver installed. Users must enable the IR port on the PC. The Microsoft IrDA driver has a Tray Icon that provides status and run options. It is Plug and Play and polls the area for other IR devices within range. Hewlett-Packard recommends that users turn off Plug and Play and Polling when not in use or not needed to prevent draining the battery. • There is currently no IR support for Macintosh products (October 96). 21
