How to Connect FP10 to iPad: A Complete Guide

Hey!!! So, you finally got your shiny new iPad and you’re super excited to connect it to your FP10 device. But wait…what even is an FP10? Is it a fancy robot? A spaceship? Nope! It’s just a printer or something, but sounds cooler when we say it like that. Don’t worry tho, I’m here to help you connect it. Grab your snack, sit back, and let’s dive into this wild adventure!

Step 1: Check the Connections

Okay, first things first. You gotta check if the FP10 has Wi-Fi or Bluetooth or whatever magic connects things these days. Turn it on like it’s your TV remote after a long day of binge-watching those shows. Look for buttons that make lights blink. We want lights blinking; that’s a good sign!

Step 2: Find Your iPad

Now pick up your iPad like it’s a kitten – gently but with excitement! Go to settings. You know where that is right? The gear icon that looks like a transformer!

Step 3: Enable Bluetooth or Wi-Fi

If your FP10 connects through Bluetooth, then go ahead and tap Bluetooth and turn that bad boy on! If it needs Wi-Fi then do the same with Wi-Fi. Pretend you’re a DJ switching channels and feel the beat!

Step 4: Get That FP10 in Pairing Mode

Okay sooo now we need that pesky FP10 in pairing mode (not partying mood tho). Usually there’s a button on the printer somewhere – press it and watch for some flashing lights like it’s having its own dance party.

Step 5: Hook ‘Em Up!

Then go back to your iPad screen – you should see the FP10 pop up in the list of devices! If it doesn’t show up immediately, don’t panic. Just give it few seconds – maybe it took a bathroom break because who doesn’t these days?

Step 6: Say Hello!

When you see its name on your iPad, tap on it like you’re waving hello to an old friend at a reunion BBQ (without burnt hotdogs!). It might ask for a password which can be something fun and unguessable like “printersrock123” or “ilovepaper”. Good luck remembering that later…

Step 7: Test Your Connection

Finally, let’s print something super silly as our test – like a picture of cat dressed as taco or something lol! Just open any file on your iPad and hit print! Fingers crossed…

Wooohooo!!! You did it! Or at least I hope you didn’t throw your iPad out the window in frustration while trying to figure this all out…
