Understanding Bluetooth Printers-Installing Device Drivers for Bluetooth Devices
Bluetooth
technology is nothing new, but in many respects it still seems to be more of a
buzz word rather than a well understood, commonly accepted technology. You see
advertisements for Bluetooth Printer,
cell phones, PDAs, and laptops, and many more. Many different devices are
taking advantage of this wireless standard.
Installing
the Appropriate Drivers: A special network adapter
allows your computer to accept the Bluetooth reception. In order for your
computer to recognize the hardware, you will need to install the appropriate
device drivers. Thus aside from the PDA, for example, you would also need the
installation disc for your Bluetooth
Printer. Whether you are using a network card or dongle, both devices
should come included with an installation CD that contains the device drivers
you need. Keep in mind that you will have to install the device drivers for
each piece of Bluetooth hardware you want to use on your computer.
Use
of Bluetooth Technology: The Bluetooth technology
has been employed to be used in our day to day business activities is by the
ability to print documents, receipts and photos from our cell phones, PDA's and
computers. Whether you are in a small office or have a Bluetooth enabled
portable printer with you in the field, it is easy to print whatever you
need.Older printers are also still usable with the Bluetooth. Buying an adaptor
is easy and keeps you from having to buy a whole new printer that happens to
have the Bluetooth technology built in.
Practical
Applications: There are a variety of
products that take advantage of Bluetooth's capabilities, from laptops and
PDAs, to headphones and input devices, and even Bluetooth Mobile Printer adapters. Many Laptops include an on board
Bluetooth adapter to allow the system to connect to any Bluetooth device right
out of the box. For laptop or desktop systems that do not have an adapter built
in, there are many USB Bluetooth adapters available. Bluetooth enabled PDAs
allow for convenient wireless synchronization and data transfer. Bluetooth printer
adapters make sharing a printer extremely convenient by eliminating the need
for any wires or special configurations on a typical network. Printing to any
compatible HP printer from a PC, PDA or mobile phone can now be done easily
from anywhere in the office.
