Introduction to Virtual Blue

In the bluetooth device list, you can see a paired and always-existing bluetooth device "BluetoothPrinter", which is a printer device virtualized by the operating system and does not actually exist. Some of these special commands are iMin self-defined commands, such as:

Use of Virtual Blue

  1. Establish a connection with the Bluetooth device.

  2. Splice the instructions and text into Bytes.

  3. Send to BluetoothPrinter.

  4. The underlying printing service drives the printing device to complete printing.
