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.
■IrSimple™ transmission speed

The use of an AC Power Adapter other than AC-5VX may result in
damage to your printer.
■Using USB interface
1. Use the USB cable suitable for the digital camera or camera phone.
2. Ensure that the USB cable is no more than 3 meters (9.8 ft.) long.
Handling & Care
*An AC adapter cannot be used in Hong Kong

16 17
■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.
(Take particular care with
young children and pets.)
Do not cut. Do not pull apart. Do not pierce.
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.
Notes on Handling Films and Finished Prints
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.
