printing on windows printer by infrared?

[YeLLo]

say, is there someone who knows a way how to print clié documents out on a windows printer? like having a memo and printing it out without sending a textfile to the PC, but just holding the PDA in front of the IR of my laptop?

 

thanks in adv., charles

Hi, Yello.

PrintBoy can do that. This small prg. is quite useful for printing documents, but overpriced ($39.95).
Have a look at:

I am using RepliGo and it allows printing of documents via IR interface as well. Works quite well and is cheaper.
See http://www.cerience.com or http://www.handango.com
They had a campaign running and sold RepliGo for $29.95. Not sure if it is still on.

Hi, YeLLo.

Sorry, but I must have misunderstood your question.
I thought you want to print documents on a printer which also has an IR interface.

But now I understand that you want to use the IR interface of your notebook to print a Clie file on the printer that is connected to your notebook(via cable). Is that right?

If so, I don't have any advice. Sorry for the confusion.

[YeLLo]

yes, that's it... well it must be possible in some way to make the notebook act as an IR enhanced printer!?

I haven't seen anything like that so far :(
