Changing the Bluetooth Low Energy Technology Advertising Packet
The printer can acquire a configuration script from the printer.
You can also change settings by transmitting the configuration script to the printer.
The configuration script only supports UTF-8 encoding.
The iBeacon Format is defined in the configuration script by default for the printer.
You can change this Packet Format to support Eddystone-UID or Eddystone-URL.
However, the printer only supports single Advertising Data Packets.
You can change the settings using either of the following two methods.
• Changing settings using the Epson TM-m30III Utility for Windows (see the TM-m30III Utility User's Man-
ual for details)
• Changing settings using an HTTP Request
