Im not usre if this is the correct group but I am having
major problems getting a compact framework application to
connect to a irda printer. It will discover the device
without problem but will tell me the connection was
actively refused when I try to connect to it. I have tried
and used a serial connection successfully (via emulator)
and have all the code to print to the printer and read the
in built mag card reader but I need to be able to acheive
this over irda. The printer supports irLPT and IrComm 3
wire.

Please help.
 
Couple of questions....

However, the compactframework ng is probably a better
place to get help.... I just happen to hang out there a
lot

How are you discovering the IRDA Server? Deploy your
code onto a device and see if it works then........my
guess is that it will. I don't have the book in front of
me, but the Compact Framework Core Reference by
Wheelwright and Wrigley MSPRess has a discussion of
this.. you need to do something to get it to work on the
Emulator and I don't remember off the top of my head but

If the actual PDA is giving you that error.. .can you
show me a snippet of the code that's doing the
transmitting..?

Thanks,

Bill
