GETTING TO KNOW YOUR X-Micro Combo Bluetooth Printer Adapter
X-Micro Combo Bluetooth Printer Adapter supports two interfaces
which can be used to connect with your printer.
1). IEEE-1284 - It is a 36-pin male connector on the front. Connect it to
your printer. If your printer hides its female connector inside its
case, then you have to open it.
2). USB - It is a USB type A connector. You need to connect one end of
the USB cable to X-Micro Combo Bluetooth Printer Adapter, then
connect another end to the printer.
Note : If your printer supports both interfaces, we recommend you to
choose just one to connect with X-Micro Combo Bluetooth Printer
Adapter. If you connect X-Micro Combo Bluetooth Printer Adapter to
both of them, 1284 interface will be the functioning one.
3). Apply power to X-Micro Combo Bluetooth Printer Adapter by using the
7.5V DC power adapter accompanied, it is also the only way to RESET
X-Micro Combo Bluetooth Printer Adapter.
4). Mode button is used by the advanced user to configure the printer
adapter for some special purposes, it is normally left unused. You also
can refer to the Utility Manual in CD for how to use it.

WIDCOMM BLUETOOTH SOFTWARE DRIVER
NOTE : Skip this section if you already installed Widcomm driver in your
PC. This software is NOT included in our X-Micro Combo Bluetooth
Printer Adapter package. We assume you already purchased a Bluetooth
USB dongle and it already bundled this software. We also assume you
already installed this driver in your PC. If NOT, please read the following
messages to learn how to do it.
You need to install a software driver which supports Bluetooth print
service, and Widcomm Bluetooth Software Driver ver. 1.3.2.7. or after
is the one you need. Most of the time, this Widcomm Driver is accompa-
nied with the Bluetooth USB Dongle you purchased. Try to download the
latest revision because print service may not be supported in the previ-
ous releases.
There are other Bluetooth services which Widcomm driver
provides. We will only emphasize on the print service, and you may try
to know other services by you own.
The following steps tell you how
to install the Widcomm driver.
Step 1 : Find Setup.exe from the
given Widcomm Driver CD or down-
loaded driver files, and double click
on it to install Widcomm Bluetooth
Software. It opens the InstallShield
Wizard dialog box, then click Next.
Step 2 : Accept the software license
agreement. Click Next.

tion can be finished.

installation.

lar icon also appears on the lower
