Connection and installation

1. Confirm exact model, fitted interface, actual OS/CPU/rights, rated power and thermal roll. Preserve POS settings, queues/jobs and paper width. Review actual terms; no default firmware update, factory reset or blanket security disabling.
2. Windows USB: keep disconnected until driver installation finishes. Extract Full and run setup, or use the official Setup EXE; follow Typical, Install, Finish. Power on and connect USB, then select the real automatically added queue under Printers and scanners and print a test page. Do not reinstall an already working driver unnecessarily.
3. Ethernet: join the approved PC network, read the actual Current IP Parameters on the self-test. In Printer Utility Star PRNT choose model, Ethernet and Search Network, or the actual printer IP. Use Windows Printer Queue Management, Install Driver, Add and Test Print. Shared Wi-Fi headings do not prove built-in Wi-Fi.
4. Bluetooth units only: after driver installation check self-test Bluetooth name and Auto-Connection OFF condition for Windows pairing. Coordinate changes to a shared device. Pair using the real PAIR indication and Windows device addition, find its actual COM port, then select Bluetooth and that port in Printer Utility and create/test the queue. Do not copy example COM3.
5. Compatible Mac USB: defer connection until instructed, install the CUPS Driver-folder PKG, connect USB, verify the actual device under Printers and Scanners and test. Do not extend file support from newer generic screenshots.

Troubleshooting

No output: check power, roll/cover, actual queue/port, current IP or COM before reinstalling. Preserve working queues. Faded thermal output: check media quality and debris; switch off and let the head cool before the official cleaning procedure, and wait for complete drying before power-on. Do not touch a hot head, disassemble it or use repeated factory resets as a generic remedy. Official model-linked USB, Ethernet, Bluetooth and Mac help grounds these steps.
