Bluetooth Wireless Data Communication

Mt3-II printers equipped with the optional Bluetooth Interface can communicate with a host that is compatible with the Bluetooth wireless communication standard.

The Bluetooth data link functions wirelessly like IrDA, with the important exception that no effort is required to physically align the host and printer in any particular fashion. If your printer is configured to use Bluetooth, simply send the job from the host and tear off the output – no other action is required.

Please refer to your host system’s documentation for information on how to set it up to communicate with the printer.
