1. Manual Information
This WLAN manual provides information on the connection of wireless network with the
mobile printer.
We at BIXOLON maintain ongoing efforts to enhance and upgrade the functions and
quality of all our products. In following, product specifications and/or user manual content
may be changed without prior notice.
2. Precautions
2-1 The printer has to be within 100m(Out door) from AP(Access point) to connect
WLAN. Although 35m is able to communicate in door, WLAN could be affected by
environment to be shorten.
The STATUS LED on the printer indicates the signal strength of the wireless LAN.
When the green LED is on, the wireless LAN signal strength is good. When the green
LED is blinking, the signal is weak. If the STATUS LED is off, it indicates that there is
no signal from the AP, and the red LED is lit if the security option or key is incorrect.
2-2 The maximum separating distance may be shortened if transmission obstacles, such
as cement walls, are present
2-3 If a device (such as a microwave oven, wireless LAN, etc.) that uses the same
frequency is present, transmission may be interrupted. Separate the printer and
Bluetooth-enabled device from such interrupting devices by a distance of at least 5m.
