Use a Bluetooth
® connection to print from your computer
A Bluetooth connection provides a quick and easy way to print images from a Bluetooth-
enabled computer without using a cable. With a Bluetooth connection you can access
many of the same printing features as with a USB connection. For example, you can
check the printer status, as well as the estimated amount of ink remaining in your ink
cartridges.
You must have Windows XP or Windows Vista and either the Microsoft Bluetooth
®
Protocol Stack or the Widcomm Bluetooth® Protocol Stack installed in order to connect
the HP All-in-One. It is possible to have both the Microsoft Stack and the Widcomm Stack
on your computer, but you use only one of them to connect the HP All-in-One.
• Microsoft stack  If you have Windows XP with Service Pack 2 or Windows Vista
installed on your computer, then your computer has the Microsoft Bluetooth
® Protocol
Stack. The Microsoft stack allows you to install an external Bluetooth® adapter
automatically. If your Bluetooth® adapter supports the Microsoft stack but it does not
install automatically, then you do not hav e the Microsoft stack on your computer.
Check the documentation that came with the Bluetooth
® adapter to see if it supports
the Microsoft stack.
• Widcomm stack : If you have an HP computer with Bluetooth
® built in, or if you have
installed an HP bt450, then your computer has the Widcomm stack. If you have an
HP computer and plug in an HP bt450, it will install automatically using the Widcomm
stack.
