- I had the luck to get one WP-34S ready made
- I tried to measure this as exactly as possible. The maximum working distance I reached was 150 mm (for our U.S. readers: 5 29/32 inches, Happy Independence Day, BTW!)

Edit: Just tested my HP42S with respect to Infrared Printing. The maximum working distance of my 1991 model is 1100 mm, thus a good deal further.

Kind regards, Ralf.

Thanks for your input, Ralf.
Somehow I have similar experience here.

I don't have a printer but I'm using my own IR receiver for testing purposes, and it seems I need to find a more efficient IR LED circuit for my 34S when I have the time and the mood for that.

I have one "as-new-in-the-box" HP-42S got the previous week, and it can reach larger distances than my 34S. But there are several possible reasons for this different behavior to be investigated if and when time and mood allows it.
