Steps to configure the Star TSP100III WiFi printer with Revo

Previously, the printer should have the factory settings. If the printer is new, skip step 1.

1.How to perform a Hard Reset (restore to factory settings) the Star TSP100III WiFi.

  • 1.1.With the printer off, open the lid and keep the Feed button clicked.

  • 1.6.When the current configuration is printed, check that the section of Network Configuration - Network Mode shows as Ad-Hoc.

2.Once the printer is in Ad-Hoc mode, access it by connecting to a new WiFi network created under the name of TSP100III-XXXXXX.

3.Once connected to TSP100III-XXXXXX, access the configuration of the printer through the Internet browser, Safari for example, using the IP address showing up on the configuration paper above, in the IP Address section.

In case it shows up as 0.0.0.0 it is accessed through IP 169.254.1.1.

  • 3.1.In the configuration, access as administrator by clicking Login.
  • 3.2.A small window shows up asking for a user (root) and password (public).

You shall probably see a new window with an alert sent by the printer to change the password. Simply ignore it by clicking Cancel.

  • 4.4.Click Submit to save changes.

5.Now go to the IP Parameters section and grant a static IP to the printer.

  • 6.3.#9100 Data Timeout (Sec.): Select 30 in the drop-down menu.
