I have a Canon MP610 printer that I know can't use Airprint via WiFi so I bought a bluetooth adaptor to the front of the printer but the Iphone cannot discover it even though my Imac does. Is there something I am missing?
iPhone 3GS, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
Airprint does not use bluetooth at all, so putting a bluetooth adapter on the front of the printer serves no purpose. If the printer is not enabled for Airprint (and it's mostly, if not exclusively, new HP printers that have this), you'll have to purchase an app in the app store like Printopia to install on your computer.
I searched Printopia on my Imac and returned nothing. Will any of the other printer apps work on the Iphone to print via bluetooth to the printer?
No. iPhones don't employ the type of Bluetooth profile needed for printing, so no app could do that.
Printopia uses wi-fi as well.
I don't think that you can print via bluetooth at all.
AirPrint = Wi-Fi only.
No it WILL NOT WORK with Blue tooth. Use pribtopia! I love it.
