Maintenance
Cameo printers will provide years of reliable service provided a few simple guidelines are followed. The printer should
be cleaned approximately every two weeks, or more often
depending on usage and the type of media being employed.
Components of the printer that require periodic maintenance
are the printhead, print roller (platen), and the media sensor.
When cleaning, please use only isopropyl alcohol, the same
type included in the Cleaning Kit. Always use Zebra label or
ticket stock for maximum print quality and extended printer
life.
Caution • Always turn the printer off prior to any cleaning operation.
Caution • Never use any sharp objects on the printer mechanism as it
could damage the printhead and platen. Use only the supplied cleaning
pen or a cotton swab saturated with alcohol for cleaning.

Communicating with the Printer
The printer must establish communications with a host ter-
minal which sends the data to be printed. Communications
occur in three basic ways:
• By a cable between the printer and its host terminal
• Infrared (usually by means of the industry standard IrDA
protocol) Units with the IrDA option can be identified by
the “IR” logo on the unit’s keypad.

Cameo printers with the WLAN option are identified by
O-21
Cameo 2/3 Series User Guide
the text “Wireless Network Printer” on the product identification label.
Cable Communications
All Cameo printers can communicate by cable; the specific cable supplied with your printer will vary with the host terminal. The 8-pin circular connector on your communications
cable plugs into the serial communications port on the side of
the Cameo printer. (Refer to the Specifications Section of this
manual for communications port pin assignments.)
The connector is keyed to assure correct alignment; do not
try to force it if it does not plug in. The other end of the cable
must be plugged into the host terminal. Communications between the terminal and the printer is controlled by the applications running on the terminal and the printer.
IR Communications
Printers equipped for infrared (IR) communications are
identified by a small “IR” logo on the unit’s keypad. IR allows
wireless communications between the printer and the host
terminal. IR units can also communicate with a cable as detailed above, however, IR functions are disabled when the
cable is plugged in. Cameo units with the IR option can be
configured to conform to the standard IrDA communications
protocol
Linking a Printer to an IrDA Host
IrDA compliant terminals will automatically initiate communications to the printer. First insure that there is a direct line
of sight between the printer and the terminal that will be sending data. The IR window on the front of the Cameo must face
the corresponding window on the terminal to properly send
and receive signals. An IrDA compliant terminal will seek out
any linkable devices and establish communications between
them, even turning the printer on if necessary.
O-22
Cameo 2/3 Series User Guide
Bluetooth Networking Overview
In order to exchange data, two Bluetooth enabled devices must establish a connection. Bluetooth software is always
running in the background, ready to respond to connection
requests. One device (known as the master) must request a
connection with another. The second device (the slave) then
accepts or rejects the connection. Bluetooth enabled Cameo
printers act as a slaves. The resulting small network of up to
seven Bluetooth enabled devices is sometimes referred to as
a “piconet”.
Each Bluetooth enabled Cameo printer has a unique
Bluetooth Device Address (BDA) loaded into its radio module
when manufactured. For the most part, communications using the Bluetooth protocol are initiated and processed without
any operator intervention, much like the IrDA system described previously.
WLAN Overview
Cameo printers, when equipped with the 802.11b WLAN radio option, allow wireless communication as a node within a
local area network (LAN). This option allows communication
from any point within the LAN’s perimeter. Methods of establishing communications to the printer will vary with each LAN
application.
More detailed information on establishing WLAN communications can be found in either the ”CPCL Programmers
Manual” or the “Quick Start Guide for Mobile Wireless
Printers” both available on-line at www.zebra.com.
More information and LAN configuration utilities may also
be found in Zebra’s Label Vista™ program (version 2.8 and later). Label Vista may be downloaded from the Zebra Web site.

Radio Regulatory Information
Bluetooth Radio for Cameo 2 and Cameo 3
The following section only applies when the Bluetooth ZBR3 Module is installed in the Cameo 2 or Cameo
3 printers. Cameo 2 printers with the Bluetooth radio have an FCC ID: I28MD-BTC2TY2. Cameo 3 printers
with the Bluetooth Radio could have an FCC ID: I28MD-BTC2TY5 or I28MD-BTC2TY2. Note that only one of
the radio options can be installed in the printer at one time.
“Bluetooth” is a worldwide standard for the exchange of
data between two devices via radio frequencies. Bluetooth
radios are relatively low powered to help prevent interference with other devices running at similar radio frequencies.
This limits the range of a Bluetooth device to about 10 meters
(about 32 feet).
Both the printer and the device it communicates with must
follow the Bluetooth standard.
Caution • Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation. The radiated output
power of this internal Bluetooth radio is far below the FCC radio
frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, this Bluetooth radio must
be used in such a manner that the antenna is 2.5 cm or further from
the human body. The radio and antenna are mounted internally in this
printer such that when the printer is worn with the back of the printer
against the body and the front of the printer (where paper exits) away
from the body, then the 2.5 cm distance between the antenna and
the users body will be met. Do not use the printer in an unauthorized
manner. The internal Bluetooth radio operates within guidelines found
in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations. The level of
energy emitted is far less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by
other wireless devices such as mobile phones.
