AFAIK all HP 4050's come with a (Fast) IrDA reveiver (according to the
HP website). Here at wotk we have a 4050TN, and after we found the
IrDA receiver (for some reason the admins don't install them), I was
able to print via IrDA. I have just selected the 5MP IrDA driver on my
Newton. The only draw is, that printing 1 page takes about 5
minutes...
