Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Once communication is established between the IBright imager and the thermal printer, a print button will become available on the main screen near the image display. Pressing this button will initiate printing of the image currently shown on the instrument screen. This is a separate workflow from the print settings available through the system menu, which are used for printing image reports on a standard network printer.

To establish communication between the Thermal Printer and the iBright imager, first the communication channel on the printer needs to be updated. This can be done by accessing the printer menu, navigating from Digital to Driver and then using the up down toggle to set the printer to channel 897. Once that is complete, the thermal printer can then be connected directly to one of the iBright imager rear USB ports via A to B type USB cable. After installation, the thermal printer can be controlled directly with the iBright onboard software via the on-screen print functionality.
