2.2.2 Auto Connection Function (only for iOS
*1
)
When the Bluetooth connection with your iOS device
(*2
is disconnected, it is required to establish a
connection by tapping the printer you want to use on the Bluetooth setting screen. This Re-Connec-
tion Specification is exactly based on the iOS specifications, and this specification is different from
other OS such as Android.
The auto connection eliminates this configuration process and automatically sends a request for con-
nection to the iOS terminal (Host) that the printer previously connected.
See the table below for details of Auto Connection setting.

Auto Connection ON
(

How to re-connect
Turn the printer on and tap the
printer name on the Bluetooth
setting screen of the iOS device.
After powered on, the printer
automatically connects to the
Host that it previously connected.
How to change
the Host
Turn the printer on and tap the
printer name on the Bluetooth
setting screen of the iOS device
you want to use.
Turn the "Bluetooth" function off
on the Bluetooth setting screen
of the host that the printer is
currently connected, and then tap
the printer name on the Bluetooth
setting screen of the iOS device
you want to use.
Use case
A printer is shared with the multi-
ple host devices.
A printer is always used with one
host device only.
ON/OFF switching can be done by a panel operation.
Details are indicated in the page 11 “2.4 Memory Switch Setting”.
(*1: This function is enabled only when the Communication mode of the printer is set to iOS mode
[Bluetooth(iAP)]. When the Communication mode is not set to iOS mode, it is disabled and de-
leted from the self-test result even if it is set to ON with the memory switch setting.
