  1. Label the printer to match the tablet label. This will ensure tablets stay with the same printer.
  2. Printer comes with Bluetooth turned off and Printer not set to Classic setting. You will need to turn both on.

    Printers come with a battery slip that blocks the battery from registering with the printer so they can ship it installed. Take the battery out of the bottom of the printer and remove this slip of paper before installing.
