Setting up the Epson WF-100 Printer for the Home-Care Physical Therapist


Having decided upon the Epson WF-100 to evaluate it's usability for the home-care therapist, we discovered that is was reasonably easy to setup with both Android and iOS devices. The steps we took were:
  • Plug the printer into the wall to charge up the battery. Note that you can also charge up the battery with a USB cable which is a nice alternative when travelling between patients. It’s inexpensive to purchase a USB car charger that plugs into the cigarette lighter port of your car to charge the printer.
  • Turn on the printer and select the language on the LCD Screen. Default is English.
  • Follow the Quick Start guide to install the ink cartridges. Note that you need to install both the black ink and color ink cartridges. Press OK. Wait about 4 minutes for the printer to complete ink priming.
  • Setup Wi-Fi Direct on the printer. Wi-Fi Direct allows your smartphone to connect to the printer without cables or using your patient’s Wi-Fi network or using your phone as a Wi-Fi Hotspot.
    • On the printer, press the down arrowon the control panel once until Wi-Fi Setup is highlighted in the LCD screen. Press OK on the printer’s control panel.

    • Press the right arrowfive times until “Wi-Fi Direct Setup 6/6” is displayed in the Wi-Fi Setup Wizard. Press OK.

    • Press OK three times until the network SSID and Password are displayed.

    • Connect to this Wi-Fi network using the provided password on your smartphone’s Setting Menu. Note that your smartphone may indicate that you are not connected to the Internet but that’s OK.

Cigarette smoking is the number one risk factor for lung cancer,cigarette smoking is linked to about 80% to 90% of lung cancer deaths. Lung cancer is the most common form of the disease in the world and 90 percent of all cases are caused by cigarette smoking. About 10 to 15 percent of smokers develop lung cancer — although they often die of other smoking-related causes like heart disease, stroke or emphysema. lung cancer often goes unnoticed in its early stages. As the disease develops, a persistent cough  develop and chronic cough worsen. including chest pain, shortness of breath, hoarseness, bloody fluid coughed up from the respiratory tract, and frequent bouts of bronchitis or pneumonia. Sometimes all your bones begin pains or hurts you so bad, headaches, dizziness,I was so pissed off and tired of my life,after I developed lung cancer from cigarette smoking and I was at the point of death,through my boredom I was surfing the internet then  I came across re Dr James herbal mix. who said he can cure lung cancer with his herbal mix and got herbal cleansers from smoking too.I really thought it was a joke until I have gotta try. when I contacted him,he said yes he can. so little time I thought  about it and bought the herbal medicine which I took couple of week to get to me.within one week of taken it I started seeing  a lots of changers till  I was totally cured. his treatment is so unique,I never thought i will be able to be free from Lung Cancer and smoking treat too.He saved my life and I'm strong and healthy right now.You can speak with Him direct on his mobile/whatsapp/E-mail+2348152855846
