Bluetooth™ Networking Overview

In order to exchange data, two Bluetooth enabled devices

must establish a connection. Bluetooth software is always
running in the background, ready to respond to connection re-
quests. One device (known as the master or the client) must
request a connection with another. The second device (the
slave or the server) then accepts or rejects the connection. A
Bluetooth enabled QL series printer will normally act as a
slave, but in theory any Bluetooth device can be either a mas-
ter or a slave. This miniature network is sometimes referred to
as a “piconet” and can consist of several Bluetooth enabled
devices.

For the most part, communications using the Bluetooth pro-

tocol are initiated and processed without any operator inter-
vention, much like the IrDA system described previously.

Each Bluetooth enabled QL series printer has a unique Blue-

tooth Device Address (BDA) loaded into its QuickLink module
when manufactured.
