Adding a Bluetooth Thermal Label Printer to Microsoft Windows 11hey, I have a cheap, bisoffice thermal bluetooth printer. most of the steps for getting the JK-402A to work also happen with this printer, including the 'Driver is unavailable' message. is there a link to the driver install executable for the JK-402A? I'm hoping if I can get that driver, my silly recipt printer can print from notepad. I just hope someone sees this message... gerry Specifically, its this one, shows up as PT-280_1E34 If anyone even sees this, can you assist? gerry I figured it out! here's what I did, I went to youtbe and found a video by Ram Kumar [How to Install Bluetooth Mobile Printer, 2 inch Mobile Printer to Windows System by Bluetooth] on windows 10, open up control panel. (not settings > printers) click add a printer, turn on your cheap printer. it might show up as mpt II or PT-280_1E33 or PT-280_1E34, click it and hit next then it'll want a passcode. back in devices and printers, find the newly added printer, whatever name it showed up as. it might lag or load for a bit now for drivers the real makers seem to be f2c technonogy .com the one pictured is once you install the driver setup, a window will popup, READ THE AGREEMENT under select printer dropdown, get the POS 58 series printer option (POS means point of sale, but peice of $#!& works too) click begin setup don't click anything else! you might be able to get away with unselecting 'set as default printer' but if you've been at this for hours.... just don't mess with anything if a printer popup with the titles POS - 58, click ok to close it , and finish on the driver setup now, you should have the properties tab for the [whatever name it was here] printer still open, if you closed it, reopen it keeping it open, open the POS-58 properties page and click 'ports' now reopen the pos-58 properties and click test page it will do NOTHING for a moment if not, you might need to remove all these printers, and start over... I sure had to a few times. you'll have a windows test page, but if you want to try something else, turn off the printer and press both the power and feed tape button (might be mode or select) press both and it'll turn on and print a diagnogstics page and viola, it might have worked TIPS in some parts I might have said 'properties' but meant 'printer properties' . sorry about that. check both. you can configure some settings by Printer properties > device settings, but the diagnogstic paper mentions other settings..... please let me know if you figure out how to change them. good luck! it took me a bit to find this. I hope this doesn't get deleted because this woulda helped me when I was frustrated looking for how to set these d#@*( things up remember me. gerry
