Useful Functions For Smart Devices; Nfc Tag; Qr Code - Epson Mobilink TM-P80II Technical Reference Manual

Useful Functions for Smart Devices

You can easily connect the printer to the network by using the NFC tag built-in to the printer or the QR code
printed on the status sheet.

NFC Tag

Bring a smart device that supports NFC close to the NFC tag to acquire the printer information (information
for specifying the device).
By using the acquired information, the device can specify the printer to send a print job over a network or
Bluetooth.

QR Code

Capture the QR code printed on the status sheet with the camera on your smart device to acquire the printer
information (information for specifying the device).
By using the acquired information, the device can specify the printer to send a print job over a network or
Bluetooth.
• Programming using Epson ePOS SDK is required to use these functions. These functions can be
achieved by combining NFC touch and QR code scanning operations with the identification of
target printers using the Printer Easy Selection API.
See the "Epson ePOS SDK for Android/iOS User's Manual" and the Epson ePOS SDK sample pro-
gram for more details. The sample program also contains a sample implementation method for
reading an NFC tag and capturing a QR code.
• You can try a demo of these functions by using Epson TM Utility.
