4.15 How do I connect a printer using Bluetooth?
Ensure the printer is turned on, has Bluetooth enabled and is
discoverable, if necessary referring to your printer's
documentation, then see
Adding a Bluetooth device
to
connect to it.
There are two main types of Bluetooth printer:
HCRP Printers
Hard Copy Cable Replacement Profile printers are added as a
Bluetooth device and then installed as a normal Windows printer.
HCRP printers will appear in Windows as though were
physically connected and you would use these in the same way
as a physically connected printer.
BPP Printers
Basic Printing Profile printers are added as a Bluetooth device.
To print to these types of device, you right-click the file you want
to print and choose Send to > Bluetooth device and select the
Bluetooth printer. This functions in a way which is similar to
sending a file to a Bluetooth device, see
How can I send audio,
image and other files to another Bluetooth device?
Refer to the documentation which came with your Bluetooth
enabled printer for more information.
Configuring CSR Harmony as an HCRP print server
CSR Harmony can be configured as an HCRP print server to

a USB or LPT connected printer.
