Some non-Microsoft Bluetooth dongles and built-in Bluetooth devices in the host
PC’s have marginal driver support for SPP printing and may not complete the ‘Add
printer’ wizard normally. You may need to go to the ‘Bluetooth Devices’ in the
‘Control Panel’ or from the system tray on the Windows ‘Start’ bar and activate SPP
for the ‘device’, your Bluetooth printer you are installing. Install the printer to a local
printer (USB or Serial Port for your G-Series printer) and then change the ‘Port’ after
the install has completed to the SPP (virtual serial port) COM port.
