Welcome to the
HP bt400
The HP bt400 wireless printer adapter uses Bluetooth
wireless technology to allow you to print without using a
cable. In general, Bluetooth wireless technology is a short-
range wireless technology that allows connection between
devices without requiring a cable. By using your HP bt400,
you can print from your camera phone, PDA, digital
camera, or computer to selected HP printers and all in ones.
Note Check the documentation for your printer to verify
the devices you can use to print to it.
Tip Check www.hp.com/go/bluetooth for a current list
of supported printers and other valuable information
concerning your Bluetooth adapter.

Bluetooth basics

The following concepts will help you use your HP bt400
with your particular printer.
Generally, the sending device (camera, PDA, computer,
etc.) sends a signal and discovers the nearby Bluetooth
printing devices and displays their Bluetooth device
names. Then, you simply print or send to that printer name.
Tip For most devices, the default settings will allow you to
print without making any changes. However, a Bluetooth
device may be set to be visible or invisible and may have
security settings established. If you have difficulty printing
to your printer, consult Bluetooth access modes on page 5.
