PDT 7500 Series
Communicating with Printers
The PDT 7500 communicates with IrDA-compliant peripherals
through the IrDA interface in the base of the terminal. To print,
point the PDT 7500’s IrDA port at the IrDA port on the IrDA-
compliant printer from a maximum distance of 39 inches (1 meter)
and run the application’s print function. Printer communication can
also be established through an RS-232 cable connected directly to
the printer.
Using the Touch Screen
Some PDT 7500 terminals are equipped with a Touch Screen, which
has software that allows the stylus to function as a mouse. An
optional stylus is available from Symbol for use with the terminal.
Further use of the stylus function is application-dependent. Refer to
application documentation for more information.
