You can use the P-touch labeling system’s keyboard LCD unit to create and
print data for labels. Because the P-touch labeling system is portable, it can
be used as a single unit without worrying about the strength of the wireless
signal or connecting to other devices, and can be used anytime and
anywhere.
Your P-touch labeling system can be used as a stand-alone P-touch labeling
system, or it can be connected to a mobile device and used with the Brother
applications to create labels and print directly from your mobile device.
To print labels from your mobile device, install the Brother applications to your
mobile device, and then connect your P-touch labeling system to your mobile
device.
Connecting Your P-touch labeling system to a Mobile Device
1. Turn on your P-touch labeling system, and then press and hold the
(Wi-Fi) button until the (Wi-Fi) indicator is lit in green.
2. Turn on the Wi-Fi function on your Apple iPhone/iPad/iPod touch or
Android™ device.
3. Start the application on your Apple iPhone/iPad/iPod touch or
Android™ device, and then select your P-touch labeling system as the
printer in the application.
Select “PT-E800W” or “DIRECT-*****_PT-E800W”.
“*****” is the last five digits of the product serial number.
You can find the serial number label on the bottom of the P-touch
labeling system.
When the password (network key) is required, type “00000000”.
Your P-touch labeling system can be connected to a computer and used with
the P-touch Editor or Cable Label Tool software to create more complex
labels.
