3-7-3. Auto Connection Function (iOS only)
Each time the wireless connection is disconnected while communicating with upper-level iOS devices including iPad over
Bluetooth, it is necessary to move back to the Bluetooth setting screen in the upper-level iOS device and tap the desired
printer name again to build a connection. This is an iOS specification.
In order to save this labor, this printer is equipped with the Auto Connection function that automatically requests a con-
nection from an upper-level iOS device that was connected to the printer last time.
The default setting of this function may differ according to the printer model you are using.
Confirm the default settings for your printer, as well as the use examples for ON/OFF settings, and then make the settings
to match your purpose.
You can also check the current ON/OFF setting by performing self-printing.
< Confirmation procedure by self-printing >
(1) While the printer cover is closed, hold down the FEED button on the
operation panel, and then turn on the power switch.
(2) Self-printing starts and the settings for F/W version, DIP switch,
memory switch, and so on are printed.
Subsequently the interface information is printed and finally the
current ON/OFF settings are printed.
Note: If "Auto Connection function" is set to ON when using devices other than iOS, a Bluetooth communi-
cation with the printer may fail. To use devices other than iOS, such as the Android/Windows devices,
make sure you turn off the "Auto Connection" function before using the printer.
For information on how to set up this function, see "3-7-4. Setting up Auto Connection".
