2 Connecting to the printer You can connect PDAs running the Palm OS or Pocket PC using 802.11 and Bluetooth wireless connections.

For an overview of Bluetooth and more information about using the printer’s Bluetooth capabilities, see the onscreen user’s guide for the printer.

4 Maintaining the printer To maintain the best possible print quality, you can use PDAs running the Palm OS or Pocket PC to perform printer maintenance tasks, such as cleaning and aligning print cartridges and calibrating color. Cleaning the print cartridges If printed characters are incomplete, or if dots or lines are missing from the printouts, you might need to clean the print cartridges.
Aligning the print cartridges Whenever you install a new print cartridge, you should align the print cartridges for the best possible print quality. If your printout is grainy, has stray dots, jagged edges, or the ink is bleeding into another color, you can re-align them through the Toolbox.
