.
On the printer you are connecting to, tap the Android device to the NFC icon on the printer. If using a Bluetooth connection, enable Bluetooth pairing mode on the printer by holding the feed button for 5 seconds.
Holding the FEED button for 5 seconds enables limited pairing mode, which enables discovery and pairing for 2 minutes. This allows the printer to operate safely with discoverable mode disabled until a user with physical access to the printer activates it. Upon entering Bluetooth Pairing Mode, the printer provides feedback that the printer is in this mode using one of two methods:
- On printers with a Bluetooth screen icon or Bluetooth LED, the printer flashes the Bluetooth icon or LED on and off every second while in pairing mode.
- On printers without a Bluetooth screen icon or Bluetooth LED, the printer flashes the Data icon or LED on and off every second while in pairing mode.
