 interface models, if you establish a radio connection between the 
host computer and the printer each time you start printing instead of maintaining 
the connection, it may take a while between the time you send a print job and the 
time that the printer actually starts printing. This happens because connecting the 
host computer and the printer requires some time. The time required for 
connection depends on the operating environment.
