Find a printer automatically

1

Turn the printer on

For a Wi-Fi printer, make sure it has joined the same Wi-Fi as your device.
2

Look for it

Under Select printer, tap Look for printers. The search takes about 15 seconds.
3

Pick it

Printers appear under Wi-Fi and network and Bluetooth. Tap yours, then tap Save.
If you see “No printers found yet”, check the printer is on and on the same Wi-Fi, then look again. If it still does not appear, add it by hand.

Add a printer by hand

Under Add a printer there are three sections.
Choose the Connection: Bluetooth or Wi-Fi / network.Wi-Fi / networkEnter the printer’s IP address or host name. Leave Port at 9100 unless it was changed on the printer. Choose the Resolution printed on the printer’s label (203, 300 or 600 dpi), then tap Use this printer.BluetoothThere are three ways to tell the app which printer to use:
  • Tap it. Tap Tap printer (NFC) and hold the top of your device on the printer’s Print Touch mark.
  • Scan it. Tap Scan printer barcode and scan the barcode on the label under the printer.
  • Type it. On iPhone and iPad, type the printer’s serial number. On Android, type its Bluetooth address or serial number. Both are on the label under the printer.
Leave Printer type on Ask the printer. The app asks the printer which language it speaks and tells you the answer. If the printer does not answer and labels do not print, choose the type yourself: Zebra mobile (ZQ220 / ZQ120), Zebra ZPL or ESC/POS receipt.You do not need to pair the printer in your device’s Bluetooth settings first.
Wi-Fi or network cable: enter the printer’s IP address. Leave the port at 9100 unless it was changed. The resolution starts at 300 dpi.Bluetooth (Android only): enter the printer’s Bluetooth address, which looks like 0C:61:CF:24:86:1B.
For an office printer or any other printer on your network. Enter its IP address, which you find in the printer’s network menu. Leave the port at 631 unless it was changed.

Zebra on Android: tap to open

On Android, holding the phone on a Zebra printer’s Print Touch mark opens LUXIMA Print and selects that printer. On iPhone, open the app first and use Tap printer (NFC).

Zebra mobile printers in receipt mode

If the app says “The printer is in ESC/POS receipt mode”, labels will print, but they line up better in the printer’s label mode. Tap Switch printer to CPCL, then turn the printer off and on again and run a test print.

Choose the layout

The label’s size comes from the label design in LUXIMA. You do not set it in the app.

Shift the print

If labels print slightly too far to one side on a Zebra printer, use Shift print. Tap the arrows to move the print left or right in steps of 0.5 mm, up to 20 mm each way. The picture shows the label as you read it. If the print sits too far left, move it right, then run a test print. Tap Reset to go back to “Not moved”.

Test print

Tap Test print at the bottom of settings to send one test page. Do this after adding a printer or changing the shift. If a job is printing, pause it first.

Save as PDF

Save as PDF (test), under Other, saves each job as a PDF on the device instead of printing. Use it to try the app before a printer is set up.
