When Printing via a Wireless Network Connection

Note

If the P-touch labeler is powered by alkaline or Ni-MH batteries, you cannot establish a wireless network connection. Use the rechargeable Li-ion battery or the AC adapter.

When you want to print via a wireless network connection, it is recommended that you configure the wireless network settings while installing the application.

You can change the wireless network settings later using the Printer Setting Tool. (For Windows® only) For more information, see Printer Setting Tool (for Windows®) on page 19.
