Enabling Windows MS Firewall Permission for Utility.exe File

Overview

  • If you are ordering a BTP R180II Printer from a company other than eHopper and are resetting the printer's Static IP, it is possible that after downloading Printer Utility, the Utility.exe file may not appear as a result of being hidden by Windows MS firewall. If this is the case, please follow the instructions below.
