About IrSimple™

What is IrSimple™?

IrSimple™ is a high-speed infrared communication protocol that permits high-speed data transfer. It was adopted in August 2005 as an international standard by the IrDA® (Infrared Data Association®), which is the standardization body for infrared technology.

IrSimple uses the same physical interfaces (SIR/FIR) as the existing IrDA standard and has the following 2 communication modes:

zUnidirectional

In this mode, data is only sent in one direction: from the sending device (primary node). Problems that arise during communication cannot be corrected.

zBidirectional

This is a bidirectional mode in which the receiving device (secondary node) responds to data sent from the sending device (primary node) by sending the outcome of the data reception or requesting a resend, etc. This allows problems that arise during communication to be corrected.

What is IrSimpleShot™ (IrSS™)?

This is a generic name given to unidirectional IrSimple™ communication.

IrSimple™ compatibility on the MP-300

The MP-300 supports both IrSimpleShot communication mode and bidirectional communication mode.

Restrictions on IrSimple™ on the MP-300

zThe MP-300 can only operate as a receiving device (secondary node). zThe MP-300 will only receive IrSimpleShot communication from a sending

device equipped with a high-speed infrared communication function (FIR). (The MP-300 does not support IrSimpleShot communication using SIR.)

zWhen a sending device equipped with a high-speed infrared communication function (FIR) uses FIR to make an IrSimpleShot transmission to the MP-300, the MP-300 can only receive data up to 1 MB in size. (It cannot receive files larger than 1 MB.)

Note also that, depending on the transmission conditions (transmitted packet size, etc.), the MP-300 may be unable to receive data from a sending device even if it meets the above requirements.

Handling & Care

Printer care

1.Your printer is a precision instrument. Do not get it wet or drop it. Also, do not expose to sand.

2.If you are not using your printer for a long period, unload the batteries and keep them where they will be safe from heat, dust, and moisture.

3.Do not use solvent such as thinner and alcohol to remove dirt.

4.Keep the printer interior clean as dust or dirt may affect print quality.

5.In hot weather, do not leave your printer in hot places such as in a car or on the beach. Do not leave it in damp places for long periods.

6.Moth repellent gas such as naphthalene may affect your printer and prints. Be careful to keep your printer or prints in a chest or bureau.

7.Because your printer is software-controlled, there is the chance that on rare occasions malfunction. If you experience incorrect operation, reset by removing the batteries and then reloading them.

8.Note that the temperature range within which your printer can be used is +5˚C to +40˚C (+41˚F to +104˚F).

9.Do not dispose of batteries by throwing them in the ordinary garbage as this may start a fire or cause environmental damage.

10.Do not use the printer in aircraft, hospitals or other locations where the use of mobile phones is prohibited.

11.If the printer causes problems with radio or TV reception, move the printer further away from the radio or TV.

Notes on Handling Films and Finished Prints

Finishing prints

zWhile the printer can be used at temperatures between 5˚C and 40˚C (+41 ˚F and +104˚F), to get the best possible print quality it should be used at temperatures between 15˚C and 30˚C (+59˚F and +86˚F).

zIn cold conditions, quickly place the print in a warm place such as a roomy jacket pocket for around 30 seconds to warm up the image.

zDo not leave the print in extremely hot locations (such as on hot sand or concrete or close to a heating appliance).

zAvoid exposing freshly produced prints to direct sunlight before the image has stabilized. Also, do not wave prints around, do not bend, fold or scratch prints and avoid touching the middle of the print surface.

Caution

The film contains black alkaline fluide. The alkalinity weakens about 10 minutes after printing, but the following precautions should be observed when handling prints:

Do not put in the mouth. Do not cut.

Do not pull apart.

Do not pierce.

(Take particular care with young children and pets.)

If any of the fluid gets onto skin or clothing, quickly rinse the affected area with plenty of water. If any fluid gets into the eyes or mouth, immediately flush the affected area with large amounts of water and then seek medical treatment.

Restrictions

1.This device was designed and built essentially to print still images that were photographed on the device that is sending the data. (It may not be able to print still images that have been exchanged between sender devices via a media or some form of communication.)

Depending on the device security settings, restrictions may apply to the printing of downloaded content and images.

2.Data other than images (address book or schedule entries, etc.) cannot be printed.

3.Restrictions apply to infrared transmissions on some sending devices so it may not be possible to transfer large images.

4.The number of recorded pixels and the number of pixels that can be sent via infrared vary depending on the sending device.

5.Some sending devices may convert images to a smaller size for transmission.

6.Some sending devices may not be able to transmit from a memory card via infrared.

7.The appearance of the finished print (sharpness, resolution, etc.) and the printing time varies depending on the image size.

8.The infrared transmission time depends on the file size and the sending device with camera model.

9.The quality of the finished print (color, image quality, etc.) is affected by the photographic conditions and the sending device used.

10.The finished print may not appear as it does on the sending device’s LCD screen.

11.Depending on the type of device used to send the data, the orientation of the printed image may differ from that of the displayed image.

12.The printer may be unable to communicate with some devices due to differences in protocols (communication standards) or image formats used.

13.This printer does not support Progressive JPEG.
