6.2.1. Bluetooth Discovery Mode
There are three discovery modes to Bluetooth connection on P25 printer series. Before you start to
do the Bluetooth connection, please make sure that you already know which mode you have on the
printers. (Refer Section 5.2 “Printer Test Receipt” to know the Bluetooth discovery mode of your
printer.)
“Always” means the printer can be discovered by other devices via Bluetooth at any time when it
powers on.
“1st connect” means the printer can be discovered by other devices via Bluetooth when it is
Powered on. But when they connect with each other successfully via Bluetooth for one time and stop
the Bluetooth connection between these two devices after finishing the transaction or printing then
the printer can not be discovered any more unless you restart the printer.
“Mode key” means the printer can not be discovered by other devices via Bluetooth at any time until
you press the MODE button one time to enable the printer to be discovered by other devices via
Bluetooth with 90 seconds. Once the time exceeds the default time limit, the printer will not be
discovered.
6.2.2. Connecting to Non-Apple Devices using Bluetooth
When using P25 printers to connect to non-Apple devices via Bluetooth, mainly steps are:
− Open the Bluetooth function on your device then search the printer.
− Enter the PIN code when pairing. (The printer’s Bluetooth PIN can be found under the printer

If you still have problem, please refer to Bluetooth section in your device’s user guide or contact your
distributor for support.
