Yes, the SDKs on this website are available free of charge, once you have accepted the EULA.

We provide SDKs for Windows Mobile, Windows CE (Bluetooth^®, IrDA, USB, Wi-Fi®), and for Android™ (Bluetooth^®, Wi-Fi®). These SDKs enable you to develop programs to print from Brother mobile printers.

Brother mobile printers have printer fonts and you can print by using ESC/P compatible printer commands.

If you develop a program which sends print data from a host device, then you can use these commands to print from the printer.

Please visit the Brother Solutions Center where our ESC/P Command Reference Manuals are available. ESC/P compatible commands are standard in all of our mobile printers, but there are some differences between models. Please refer to the latest Command Reference Manuals for details.

Please check the supported commands of your model, and use either of the following method.

For details, please refer to the Command Reference Manuals for your printer.

Yes, this is possible.

Our standard SDK has a printing feature that uses API tools from Windows. It is possible to draw a bitmap picture on to a device and send the data to a printer. You can print out any text that you can see on the screen of your handheld device which is running either Windows Mobile or Windows CE without mis-encoding. If it cannot be shown on the screen of your handheld device, it cannot be printed from the machine.

Please refer to the Command Reference Manuals for your target mobile printer.
If you have experience in outputting graphic images to a printer, please refer to the Raster Command Reference Manuals.
If you have experience in using ESC/P commands to control printing, please refer to the ESC/P Command Reference Manuals.
If you have experience in using ZPL® II commands to control printing, please refer to the P-touch Template 2.0 Command Reference Manual.

They are available from the Brother Solutions Center.

Small changes to your application will be required if you used the SDKs for the same platform and developed a program for a different printer. Please download the latest version of the SDK and then rebuild the program. Please refer to the manuals which are included in the SDKs.

It depends on the printer. Please refer to the limitations in the P-touch Template Command Reference Manual for your target printer.

When you are connecting the machine via Bluetooth^®, the printer may not start to receive the data immediately after the port is opened. We advise to wait for an interval of 500 msec before sending the print data to the machine.

If you normally close and re-open the Bluetooth^® port between prints, we would again advise to leave 500 msec between the port being closed and re-opened.

Also, once you have sent the print data, and the printing process has begun, do not close the port.

Please refer to the document "How to use the infrastructure mode for PJ-673".

Please refer to the Command Reference Manual for your target printer, or please use the Printer Setting Tool to define the default command.
