Is the InfraLink IR pod required?
No, but it’s cool and convenient to have. To print directly to a printer, without first sending the file to a computer, the IR pod is required. Our pod connects to a computer, a printer and to the computer s keyboard – simultaneously. It manages data traffic between the CalcuScribe and the desktop devices mentioned. The PC-pod can hold several documents in memory and serve them to the computer, or to the printer, one at a time. The Mac pod cannot do that unless you want to ONLY print the documents because when the Mac IR pod is communicating with the Mac it can’t communicate with other devices. Macs need full attention.
