Printing from the PDA

To print from the Handspring Visor to a printer connected to the WindConnect
Bluetooth Print Adapter you will need a Palm-compatible printing program such as
Bachmann Software’s PrintBoy (www.bachmannsoftware.com), TealPoint Software’s
TealPrint (www.tealpoint.com), or Stevens Creek Software’s PalmPrint (www.steven-
screek.com).  Since most of these programs support printing from either the serial
port or the infrared port, you must first use the software's setup program to select
the serial port.

The following are the steps for setting up the PrintBoy software.  Note that you
only need to do the setup procedure one time

1. Click the 

PrintBoy

icon (if necessary, scroll down).  

2. Click the 

Setup

button.

3. Click the 

Edit

button and note the 

Technology

setting.  If it is on 

Serial

, skip

to the next step.  If it is 

IrDA

, click on the adjacent down arrow and change the

setting to 

Serial

.  Note that the 

Comm. Speed

setting does not matter.
