Please follow the precautions below to enjoy and maintain the full performance
of the printer.
Using the Printer
● Be careful not to drop or bump the printer on a hard surface.
● Do not install the printer in direct sunlight or such areas.
Suitable environment for the use of the printer is as follows:
◆ Operating temperature :-10°C to 50°C
◆ Relative humidity : 30% to 80%
● Do not install the printer near devices that generate strong
electromagnetic fields such as a copy machine.
● Do not open the platen cover during printing .
● Do not remove or reinstall the communication cable during printing
or transmission.
● Do not touch the connectors of the communication during printing.
● Switch the POWER OFF when not in use.
● Do not use alcohol or other solvent.
● The AC adapter, the battery charger and the battery pack may
become warm when in use. This is normal and is not a malfunction.
● When the battery pack is used at low temperature, the length of time
the printer can be used may be shortened.
Thermal Paper Handling
● Store the thermal paper in a cool, dry and dark place.
● Do not rub the paper with hard object.
● Do not leave the paper with hard object.
● Do not allow plastic film, erasers, or adhesive tape to touch the paper

In keeping on pressing the Feed and Power button simultaneously until after the
ERROR lamp blinks 5 times, the printer comes out at the circumstance to change
the printer mode. (refer Table 2)
POWER button : use for changing OPTION status. (Error Lamp)
FEED button : use for changing MODE status. (Power Lamp)
[Example] The defaults of the printer are :
RS-232C / 9600 bps / 8 data bit / No parity / 1 stop bit / Density low
/ Mark use / Sensor low / Power down 5 minute
If a user wants to modify the defaults with
Bluetooth / 57600 bps / 7 data bit / Odd parity / 2 stop bit / Density high
/ Mark no use / Sensor medium1 / Power down no use
Press MODE & POWER Button during the Error Lamp flickers 5 times.
You will see the Power Lamp and the Error Lamp flickers once.
Press the POWER Button twice and the Error Lamp flickers 3 times.
And then, interface mode has set to Bluetooth mode.
When you press POWER button once again, Power Lamp flickers twice and
the Error Lamp flickers once.
Press POWER Button 3 times, Error Lamp flickers 4 times.
And then, baudrate has set to 57,600 bps.
When you press POWER Button once again, Power Lamp flickers 3 times
and the Error Lamp flickers twice.
Press POWER Button once, Error Lamp flickers once.
And then Data Bit has set to 7 data bit.
When you press FEED Button once again, Power Lamp flickers 4 times
and the Error Lamp flickers once.
Press POWER Button once, Error Lamp flickers twice.
And then the Parity bit has set to Odd parity bit.
WSP-R240 Rev. 2.0
http://www.woosim.com 17
When you press FEED Button once again, Power Lamp flickers 5 times
and Error Lamp flickers once.
Press POWER Button once, Error Lamp flickers twice.
And then the density has set to 2 stop bit.
When you press FEED Button once again, Power Lamp flickers 6 times
and Error Lamp flickers once.
Press POWER Button twice, Error Lamp flickers 3 times.
And then the density has set to Density high.
When you press FEED Button once again, Power Lamp flickers 7 times
and Error Lamp flickers twice.
Press POWER Button once, Error Lamp flickers once
And then the mark has set to Mark no use.
When you press FEED Button once again, Power Lamp flickers 8 times
and Error Lamp flickers once.
Press POWER Button once, Error Lamp flickers twice
And then the sensor has set to Sensor medium1.
When you press FEED Button once again, Power Lamp flickers 9 times
and Error Lamp flickers five times.
Press POWER Button once, Error Lamp flickers once
And then the power down has set to Power down no use.
If all the mode have set, press the POWER Button and the FEED Button at the
same time after then release the buttons at the same time.
The printer will print out the mode status which has modified.
(Bluetooth / 57600 bps / 7 data bit / Odd parity / 2 stop bit / Density high /
Mark no use / Sensor medium1 / Power down no use)

The Self-Test checks whether the printer has any problems. If the printer does not
function properly, contact your dealer. For Self-Test, turn on the power while
holding down the FEED Button. The Self-Test checks the following :
1) Make sure paper roll has been installed properly.
2) The Self-Test prints the current printer status, which provides the control
ROM version and the communication method setting.
3) After printing the current printer status, Self-Test will print a pattern using
the built-in character set.
4) The Self-Test automatically ends.
The printer is ready to receive data as soon as it complete the Self-Test.
Panel lamp
- Power : Printer is ON and ready to receive data.
(GREEN)
- Error : Indicates a fault condition or a printer error.
(RED) (i.e : no paper, paper cover opened. etc.)
- Bluetooth : Indicates a Bluetooth connection status.
(BLUE)
- Battery Power : These lamps(Green) indicated the battery power remaining.
