    Make sure that the Bluetooth settings screen can be displayed on the LCD of the printer, and try to print again.

    If the Bluetooth settings screen is not yet displayed after you remove the Bluetooth unit from the printer and attach it again, the Bluetooth unit may be faulty. In this case, contact the service center.

  2. Check2 Is there a problem with the location of the printer or is the distance between the printer and computer too great?

    The maximum communication distance between the printer and a computer is about 33 ft./10 m, but it varies depending on the following conditions:

    • Presence of obstacles between the communication equipment and radio wave conditions

    • Location where magnetic fields, static electricity, or radio interference occurs

    • Type of software and operating system used

    • Receiver sensitivity and antenna performance of the communication equipment

      Change the printer installation place or move the printer closer to the computer.

    1. Select Print from the File menu of the application software to open the Print dialog.
