Set up the device for Bluetooth communication
The HP Bluetooth Wireless Printer Adapter allows you to print documents from
Bluetooth devices without a cable connection. Simply insert the HP Bluetooth adapter
into the front USB port and print from a Bluetooth device such as a PDA or camera
phone. You can also use Bluetooth technology to print from a computer to the device.
NOTE: The only software functionality available with a Bluetooth connection is
printing. Scanning and software-based faxing cannot be done over a Bluetooth
connection. However, some stand-alone functions are still available.
