II. Basic Functions of RPP02N

1) Power on

With the printer off, press the power button [POWER] for 2 seconds to turn on the printer and enter working mode. The power indicator light (red light) will illuminate.

2) Power off

With the printer powered on, press and hold the power button [POWER] for 2 seconds to power off the printer and turn off all indicator lights.

3) Self-inspection

After receiving the printer, users can perform a self-test at any time to check the printer's current settings and status.

The self-test method is as follows: Turn off the printer (if the printer is on), then press and hold the paper feed button [FEED], and then press the power button [POWER] to turn it on. The printer will then print a self-test page, which contains the current status of the printer, printer settings, and printing examples.

4) Paper feed (manual paper feed)

When the printer is in normal working condition, press the paper feed button [FEED] and the printer will start feeding paper.

5) Charging

After a period of use, the printer battery will eventually run out of power. When the printer battery is almost depleted, the user needs to charge it. If the printer automatically shuts down during printing, the user must charge it if they wish to continue using it.

The charging method is as follows: Plug the charger's AC plug into a 220V, 50HZ power outlet, and then plug the charging plug into the printer's charging outlet. The printer will start charging. During the charging process, the paper feed indicator light (blue light) will flash if the printer is powered on, until the battery is fully charged and the charging indicator light stays on.The printer can be used normally while charging.

III. Printer Connection and Printing

1. Serial port connection

The printer's optional accessories include a DB-9 serial cable (the other end connects to the printer via a MINIDIN connector).

2. USB connection

The printer comes with a USB cable as an optional accessory. Connect it to your computer's USB port and install the driver.

3. Bluetooth pairing and printing

Before a portable micro printer can be used, it needs to be paired with the main device that drives it. The pairing process is initiated by the main device.

The typical pairing method is as follows:

1) Turn on the printer

2) The main device searches for external Bluetooth devices.

3) If there are multiple external Bluetooth devices, select the printer with the corresponding BDA address (see the self-test page for details).

4) Enter the password "0000" or "000000"

5) Complete the pairing.

For detailed pairing instructions, please refer to the Bluetooth function description of the main device. The portable mini printer must be powered on during pairing.

Note: When pairing, please do not turn on multiple printers at the same time, otherwise it may be impossible to determine which printer was successfully paired.

After successful pairing, other host computers can still pair with the printer. Each printer can pair with up to 8 host computers. If more host computers pair with the printer, the host computer that was paired with the printer earliest will be automatically removed from the pairing list. If this host computer needs to drive the printer to print, it needs to be paired again.

Print using Bluetooth interface

For host computers with virtual Bluetooth serial ports (such as smartphones, POCKETPCs, Palm devices, laptops, etc.), after successful pairing, print data can be sent to the portable mini printer via the virtual Bluetooth serial port for printing. If the host computer does not have a virtual Bluetooth serial port, please consult the host computer supplier to drive the portable mini printer.

IV. Indicator Lights and Buzzer Signals

The printer has a buzzer and two indicator lights to indicate the printer's status to the user. The indicator lights show the current status of the printer, and the buzzer indicates changes in the printer's status. The two indicator lights are the power indicator and the paper feed indicator.
