About this Manual
Aim of the Manual
This manual describes the settings for printers, smart devices, and computers to connect via Bluetooth.
Screens and Illustrations in this Manual
Although the screens shown in this manual might differ from the actual screens on the OS or product that you
are using, the operation methods are the same. In addition, the illustrations shown in this manual are for the
TM-L100, unless specified otherwise.
Bluetooth Interface
Pair the printer with your device using the Bluetooth function of the device or using other methods.
Pairing the printer is also possible by using EPSON TM Bluetooth Connector (Windows) or Epson TM Utility.
• If the host computer and the printer are not connected via wireless on a continuous basis but
rather connected every time the printer starts printing, some time may be needed for the printer
to actually start printing after the host computer commands printing. This pause is the time
required for processing the connection between the host computer and the printer, and it
depends on the conditions of the environment where used.
• If data transfer from an application of the host computer has already been completed, data might
remain in the Bluetooth module internal buffer. As such data remaining in the buffer might be lost
when the connection is cut off, use the status or similar functions to check that transmitted data
has been completely printed before cutting off the wireless connection.
• After the status sheet is printed, only the print settings of the mainly connected interface are
retained. For the mainly connected interface, see the TM-L100 Technical Reference Guide.
• Ethernet and Wi-Fi status sheets are not printed while the printing communication protocol is
being established. They will be printed after the connection is cut off (including being cut due to a
time out).
• The Bluetooth status sheet is not printed if status sheet printing is performed under the following
conditions.
∗ Bluetooth is connected when the Bluetooth security is set to "Medium" or "High"
∗ An error occurs when the Bluetooth security is set to "Medium" or "High"
∗ Time between when a pairing request is received and Passkey printing starts when the
Bluetooth security is set to "High"
• "(none)" is printed for the "Connected Peripheral" if no peripherals are connected to the USB
downstream port connector.
• For detailed information about EPSON TM Bluetooth® Connector, see the TM Bluetooth®
Connector User’s Manual.
• The initial setting for Bluetooth security level is “Middle”. For details, see the TM-L100 Technical
Reference Guide.
• This printer will automatically reconnect with the iOS device if the Bluetooth is lost (automatic
reconnection function). For details, see the TM-L100 Technical Reference Guide.
