NFC Interface Connection (Standard)
The NFC interface of the printer supports a handover function that simplifies the Bluetooth/Wi-Fi
connection setup with Android devices.
The handover function only performs the connection setup, such as the pairing and authentication with
NFC, and passes the actual interface to the more advanced Bluetooth and Wi-Fi when communicating
between NFC supported devices. In general, the pairing and authentication require some procedures
to enter authentication information, but the connection can be completed simply by holding the Android
devices over the printer while using NFC.
Touch the NFC antenna (1) of the printer with the NFC mark on the Android device.
