Precautions
The TROY WindConnect II printer adapter with
Bluetooth
technology is preconfigured at the factory to allow you
to print right out of the box without having to first configure the device. Optionally, you can reconfigure the
device (change the device name, enable/disable the discovery feature, select security features, and update the
device’s firmware) at any time using the provided Configuration Utility (refer to
Chapter 4 – Configuring Your
Printer Adapter
in this user’s guide for more information).
Before installing the WindConnect II, make sure your printer functions properly. The WindConnect II supports
either a parallel or USB connection to your printer, depending on the model of WindConnect II purchased.
Ensure that you have properly installed your adapter and sending device software on the device as described in
the documentation that came with the device.

The printer adapter is designed to withstand normal handling procedures, but reasonable precautions should be
exercised during installation, particularly with regard to static discharge. Ensure that you are adequately
grounded by touching an unpainted metal portion of the printer chassis while installing the printer adapter.
