FTP-628WSL-110 Bluetooth®
Conguration Guide
Conguring the Bluetooth Interface with MS Windows XP
Background: The Bluetooth Interface is typically easy to congure, as is the FTP-628 Driver. The
mechanics are simple: the FTP-628 Serial Driver is assigned to a virtual Serial (COM) Port, and the
Bluetooth driver links to the same virtual Serial (COM) Port.
This example was developed using a Fujitsu Lifebook Notebook PC with built-in Toshiba Bluetooth
hardware support.
Bluetooth Interface Conguration:
1. Make sure the FTP-628 printer battery has been fully charged; if your printer has never been
used, allow 3 hours for the initial charge.
2. Turn on the printer (hold down the Power button until the Green LED starts blinking, then re-
lease); place the printer in close proximity to the Bluetooth PC; it is best to ensure there are no
other active Bluetooth devices within range (about 30 feet).
3. Start the Bluetooth Manager on the PC and select the ‘Add New Connection’ function.

warning regarding default COM port recommendation, [Image 8] and DO NOT de-select the
Auto Connect box; click Next. [Image 11]
