4. Setup

4.1 Charging the Printer

Before first use, fully charge the printer. Connect the supplied USB cable to the printer's USB interface and to a power source (e.g., computer USB port or USB wall adapter). The built-in 1000mAh battery provides approximately 15 hours of use on a full charge.

4.2 Loading Thermal Paper

1. Press the Paper Replacement Button to open the printer lid.
2. Insert a roll of thermal paper into the compartment, ensuring the paper feeds out from the top and is aligned correctly.
3. Close the printer lid securely.

4.3 App Installation and Bluetooth Connection

The printer connects to your smartphone via Bluetooth using a dedicated application. Note: There has been confusion regarding the correct app. While some instructions may mention "Fun Print App," user experience indicates that the "iPrint" app is more reliable for connection and operation. It is recommended to download and install the "iPrint" app from your phone's app store (compatible with iOS and Android).

1. Download and install the "iPrint" app from your smartphone's app store.
2. Turn on the Cyeelves Mini Printer by pressing and holding the Power Button for 3 seconds until the green light illuminates.
3. Enable Bluetooth on your smartphone.
4. Open the "iPrint" app. Within the app, navigate to the connection settings to pair with your printer. Do not attempt to pair through your phone's system Bluetooth settings directly.
5. Once connected, the app will indicate a successful pairing.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the printer. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
• Paper Handling: Store thermal paper in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Ensure the paper is loaded correctly to avoid jams.
• Battery Care: To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the printer frequently. Charge the printer regularly, even if not in constant use.
• Avoid Tape: Do not apply scotch tape over printed thermal paper as it may cause smearing or fading of the print.

7. Troubleshooting

• Printer Not Connecting to Phone:
  • Ensure the printer is turned on and fully charged.
  • Verify Bluetooth is enabled on your phone.
  • Crucially, connect via the "iPrint" app, not directly through your phone's Bluetooth settings.
  • If issues persist, try restarting both the printer and your phone, then re-attempt connection through the app.
• Poor Print Quality / Faded Prints:
  • Ensure you are using thermal paper.
  • Check if the thermal paper is loaded correctly.
  • The printer produces black and white prints. Photo quality may appear grainy compared to standard photo printers.
• Paper Jams:
  • Open the printer lid and carefully remove any jammed paper.
  • Ensure the paper roll is inserted straight and not at an angle.
• App Issues:
  • If the app is buggy or unresponsive, try closing and reopening it.
