Recommended Receipt Printer: mC-Print3 alternative SteadyLAN setup

Note: You should only connect an Ethernet cable if using SteadyLAN. SteadyLAN should only be used if your Wi-Fi signal is inconsistent or poor. If you have a good Wi-Fi signal, try using the standard set-up. When not using SteadyLAN, the printer should not have the Ethernet cable plugged in.

Connect an Ethernet cable

Connect an Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the printer.
