Printer Preparation
1 Prepare the PB40A by holding down the red button for about
two seconds until you hear a short beep. This means the
printer is ready to go and will be discoverable.
S Any time you press and hold the button until it beeps, you
will dump any active wireless printing sessions.
2 You are ready to print wireless transactions.
Printer Self-Test
1 Press the Paper Advance (red) button for at least five seconds
to run a Self-Test.
S This means you will be holding it long enough to hear the
beep and complete a paper advance.
S The self-test indicates the current state of your printer.
S Verify the current mode by reading the Power status line
from the printout.
S When your printer is turned off, the radio is undiscoverable
and unconnectable.
When shipping your printer via air freight, turn the
wireless printing mode off and set to IrDA so that
the radio is not enabled.
Why Printer Beeps Every 5 Minutes When Unconnected
As part of the implementation of the serial port service, this ser-
vice refreshes itself every five minutes. That refresh sends a mes-
sage to the printer, which then wakes up and causes the beep
while resynchronizing with the serial port service. The printer
then goes back to sleep based on its timeout. The beep can be
turned off within the 'printer configuration utility'.
700 Mobile Computer Preparation

in the System tray on the Today screen.

sented with a couple of screens detailing the device discovery
