The PB21/PB31 must establish communications with a host that will
send the data for the printer to print. The PB21/PB31 provides four
ways to communicate with a host:
• Bluetooth radio communications
• 802.11 b/g radio communications
• USB communications
• Serial communications
The PB21/PB31 can contain a Bluetooth radio that allows wireless
communications with a remote device from distances up to 100
meters (approximately 328 feet) depending on the Bluetooth range
capabilities of the remote device, environmental conditions, and
obstructions. For the Bluetooth-enabled devices to exchange data,
both devices must establish a connection. Bluetooth software is
always running in the background.
The PB21/PB31 cannot initiate a Bluetooth connection. One of the
devices must request a connection with the printer. The PB21/PB31
then accepts or rejects the connection. Use Intermec Settings on the
mobile computer to enable the Bluetooth settings on the PB21/PB31.
The PB21/PB31 can also connect to Bluetooth scanners, such as the
SF51 and the SR61. You can create the bar code labels you need to
connect the printer to a Bluetooth scanner using EasySet software.
You can download a free version of EasySet from the Intermec web
site at www.intermec.com.
