USB Printer
Thank you for purchasing a Lighthouse Worldwide Solutions Apex Portable USB Printer!
Please follow these instructions to prepare the printer for operation.
Unpack the printer, AC/DC power adapter, USB cable, and paper roll. Connect the printer to the ApexP instrument with
the USB cable and install the paper. If the instrument detects the printer and you are able print a single data record, the
printer is set up and ready to go. If not, refer to the instructions below.
Perform all setting changes for the MyPrinter Bluetooth/USB thermal printer via its BIOS setup mode. This means put the
printer into its “setup” mode then proceed using these instructions. If, at any time, the printer does not appear to be
making the changes or responding correctly, turn the printer off by rapidly pressing the power button twice, wait for the
rapid flashing and the LED to turn off, and then start the process over.
The power button turns the printer on and off, changes the mode selection, and performs a linefeed. Press the power
button for about a half-second to power the printer on, perform a linefeed or to move to the next mode selection (from
Interface to Baud Rate to Data Length, etc.). Press the power button for about one-tenth of a second to change the mode
selection setting (Bluetooth to RS232 / USB or 115200 BAUD to 57600, etc.). Rapidly press the power button twice to
turn off printer.
Charging the Battery
Attach the USB cable to the AC/DC power adapter then connect the power adapter to AC power. Attach the USB cable
‘B’ end to the printer and allow it to charge for a couple of hours. Disconnect the cable from the printer. The printer’s LED
should turn off after a few seconds. If it does not turn off, rapidly press the power button twice. The LED should flash
rapidly for several seconds and then turn off.
Note
: Try to keep the battery charged. If it loses its charge, or the battery is removed, the printer resets to the default
settings and this setup procedure will need to be repeated.
Note
: If the printer fails to print multiple records, it is an indication that the battery is too low.
