When sending print data, wait at least 500 msec after the port has been opened before starting to send the data. In addition, if the port is continuously opened and closed, for example, when printing multiple pages, wait at least 500 msec after the port is closed before opening the port the next time. Once the print data for one page has been sent, do not close the Bluetooth port until printing is finished. - 31 - 5. Precautions
