+**Device Information Structure:**
+
+Each device object returned contains:
+- `name` (string): Device name
+- `address` (string): Device MAC address (Android) or UUID (iOS)
+- `deviceClass` (number): Bluetooth device class
+- `majorDeviceClass` (number): Major device class category
+- `rssi` (number, iOS only): Signal strength indicator
+
+**Filtering for Printers:**
+
+To identify printer devices, check the `majorDeviceClass`:
+```javascript
+const MAJOR_CLASS_IMAGING = 1536; // 0x0600 - Printers, scanners, cameras
+const DEVICE_CLASS_PRINTER = 1664; // 0x0680 - Specifically printers
+
+// Filter found devices to show only printers
+const printers = ss.found.filter(device => 
+    device.majorDeviceClass === MAJOR_CLASS_IMAGING || 
+    device.deviceClass === DEVICE_CLASS_PRINTER
+);
+```
+
+**Platform differences:**
+- **Android:** Device classes are provided by the OS based on the device's Bluetooth profile
+- **iOS:** Device classes are inferred from:
+  1. Advertised service UUIDs (SPP, ESC/POS services)
+  2. Device name patterns (contains "print", "pos", "thermal", "receipt", etc.)
+  3. If no printer indicators are found, device is marked as "unknown" (class 7936)
