■
sending files through the IR port to an IR-equipped printer.
■
transferring files to a Windows CE–equipped computer and
printing from the computer.

When printing from the computer, Microsoft
application files are printed using the print defaults
established in the computer version of the application.

Printing Guidelines
Before printing, follow these guidelines:

only. Do not connect to a printer parallel port.
■
Use a 9-to-25 pin adapter, if required by the printer’s serial
port.
