Initial Setup
Step 1: Charge Your Printer

- Charge fully before first use (approximately 2-3 hours)
- The indicator light shows when charging is complete
Step 2: Load Paper
- Open the paper compartment
- Insert a thermal paper or sticker roll, following the directional arrows
- Feed the paper straight — angled insertion causes jams
- Pull about 2 cm of paper out for the auto-feed mechanism
- Close the compartment securely
Step 3: Download FunPrint
- iPhone: Search “Fun Print” in the App Store
- Android: Search “Fun Print” in Google Play Store
- Install and open the app
Step 4: Connect via Bluetooth

Important: Allow Bluetooth or nearby-device access so Fun Print can discover the printer. Allow photos or camera access only when the feature you choose needs it; permission names vary by phone and operating-system version.
Tip: The printer connects to only one app at a time. If you want to switch apps, disconnect from FunPrint first, fully close it, then open the other compatible app (such as iBleem or Dolewa).
