Printing Options: You can set printer and paper options using Menu->Setup Printer/Paper selection from any of the main menus or by selecting an item to print (note: if the Menu->Quick Print Flag is checked ON, the printer/paper setup screens will be skipped and the most recent settings will be used to begin printing.

Printer Settings (below left):
Printer: Select the printer to print to. Some printer selections work for a variety of printers, such as the "HP PCL" selection which prints to most Hewlett Packard DeskJet, LaserJet and compatible printers.
Port: Select between Infrared, Bluetooth, and Serial (COM1-COM9). See below for additional Bluetooth printing information.
Color/Mono: Select Monochrome (Black & White) if your printer is not a color printer (or if you wish to print in mono). If your printer has color capabilities AND has a black ink capability, select "4-Color CMYK". If your printer cannot hold both color ink and black ink at the same time, select "3-Color CMY".
Paper Orientation: Select Portrait (standard rotation) or Landscape (sideways rotation).

Paper Settings (below middle):
Paper: Select paper size for use. You can choose "Custom" and then set special paper sizes in the Width and Height boxes. For printers that use "roll" paper, you can set a maximum paper height of 22 inches.
Margins: Set Left, Right, Top and Bottom margins of the printed page

Other Settings (below right):
Form Feed Settings: For most printers, this should be left at "Normal Form Feed" so that after a page is printed, the page is properly ejected from the printer and the next page can be printed. Some printers use "roll paper". For these you may wish to use the "Use Paper Height" setting (see Paper Settings screen) to print pages the height selected by Paper selection (see Paper Settings screen). Or you can use the "Scroll" setting which will print each page and then "scroll" or roll the paper the distance past the last printed portion of your document. This is great for printing receipts or quick notes where you need a "tear-off" strip after your printed output but you don't need to roll out blank paper to fit the full height of the paper setting.
Data Compression: (Default: Checked) Many printers can work with data that is sent to it in special compressed forms to reduce the amount of data and time needed to send the page from the Windows CE device to the printer (which is the slowest part of printing). Checking "Compressed Printing" can cut printing times significantly on some printers. However some older printers may not support compressed printing.
Density: Default: Normal) Allows you to adjust output to be darker or lighter. For example, some thermal printers print out text very light, so you could adjust Print Density to "Darker" for improved readability.
Serial Baudrate: Used only by Serial (COM1- COM9) ports to select serial port speed. You need to make sure that this setting matches the speed setting of your serial printer.
Serial Handshake: (Default: Software) Affects Serial ports (COM1-COM9) only... adjusts "handshake" communication protocol for serial printing. The "Software" setting (XON/XOFF) works for the majority of serial printers. The "Hardware" setting uses CTS/RTS.

Bluetooth Printing:  NOTE: Be sure you have Bluetooth enabled on your device: go Start menu -> Settings -> Bluetooth -> On or Discoverable -> Done.

In order to print using a Bluetooth (BT) connection, your SmartPhone will need to find (or "discover") the BT printer and select it for printing. Some SmartPhones will use SmartPhonePrint's "Bluetooth" port selection.

When you set Port=Bluetooth and try to start printing, you will see the Bluetooth Search window (below left) as SmartPhonePrint searches for your BT printer. If you have previously found BT devices, you will see the Bluetooth Browser screen (below middle). If the desired printer is not on this list, turn on the printer and select Options->Bluetooth Search to do a fresh search for the printer. To see a BT device's full device name and BT address by selecting Options->Device Info (below right).

Once you see the printer in the Bluetooth Browser list, scroll to it and click Go to start printing. Note that once you have successfully used the Bluetooth Browser to find your printer and print, you can set Port = Bluetooth: Quick Print to skip the Bluetooth Browser step in the future. If you change BT printers, you will need to go back to Port=Bluetooth to find and select the new printer.

If you have a BT phone but the "Bluetooth" port selection does not work, you will need to see if your SmartPhone's BT manager has an ability to find printers and assign them to specific serial port (COM1-COM9). Then you will set SmartPhonePrint's Port setting to the correct COMx.
