Hardware on iPad

Star Micronics have introduced the TSP100IIIU USB Printer which is able to be connected directly to an iPad using the Apple Lightning Cable. This allows direct communication between the iPad and the printer while simultaneously charging.

After you have connected your printer to your router with an ethernet cable the next thing to do is to obtain the IP Address for your printer. Hold down the feed button while you switch the printer on.

The first thing to do is to put the printer in Bluetooth Mode for iPad. To do this follow these steps.

The Star mPOP is an all in one POS device designed to work with mPOS software such as AirPOS. The unit contains a thermal printer and built-in cash drawer that allows a tablet or desktop POS to connect to it in order to print receipts and store cash.

To power on the Star SM-220i printer slide down the silver arrow on the left hand side of the printer from the 'O' setting to the 'I' setting.

If you have bought a printer manufactured by Star Micronics adding it to your AirPOS POS Setup on your iPad is now much simpler.

The first step is to pair the printer with your iPad. Press the home button on your iPad and then locate your Settings icon on the iPad home screen. On the iPad tap the Settings icon and then tap ‘Bluetooth’ on the top left of your screen.
