the printer and face the IrDA interface windows of both PC (or a device) and the printer. (Direction of the

printer.
When the the status indicator blinks slowly in red twice, the printer enters the download mode.

For RS-232C communication, use a battery-driven PC. If an AC-power-driven PC is used, a noise may occur
on the signal line, causing the printer's CPU PC board to be damaged.
2. When the printer is in the download mode, open a file for downloading. From the [Transmission(R)] drop
down menu select [Start(S)] to start the download.
