SI-Droid Event (not the Lite version) have support for printing split time receipts on Bluetooth printers. The basic feature should work with almost all Bluetooth printers as long as you are only using the standard English alphabet (A-Z, a-z, 0-9) in the names of the runners. Other characters may come out as garbage.

If you want to use other characters (and get them correctly printed) in the names of the runners, the only printer that I know is working correct is the model that I used during development: NT-5802 Bluetooth Printer

For the above printer, I have added character set mappings for most languages, so it should also be able to print most non-english characters correct.

If you have tested my app with any other Bluetooth printer, I'm very interested in the result. If you can supply me with a list of all the supported character sets for the printer, I might also be able to add support for it.
