5.1 Printer Not Connecting via Bluetooth

  • Ensure the printer is powered on and fully charged.
  • Verify Bluetooth is enabled on your mobile device.
  • Restart both the printer and your mobile device.
  • Forget the device in your phone's Bluetooth settings and try pairing again through the Print Master app.

  • Clean the print head as described in the Maintenance section.
