Marcus is the expert here, but my understanding is that the 34S will only switch to graphical output if it needs to or if a graphic register set is printer.

You can configure printing with the pMODE command (replace p by the printer symbol).

pMODE 0 is the default mode, a mixture of text and graphics printing.
pMODE 1 prints everything as graphics.
pMODE 2 prints everything as graphics, using the small character set.
pMODE 3 "prints" to the serial port (9600,8,N,1). ASCII only!

@Martin: The IR range depends on the type of IR LED. Katie has made some experiments. I don't recall the exact details, but I can send you one of mine.
