How do i print via bluetooth?

I am trying to print to a mobile thermal receipt printer, but i am unable to pair the printer with my ipad.  Is there a special app that i need for this, or is this somethat that needs to be programmed in an app to talk to the printer?

Ahh, defiantly good to know, WiFi is the only way then, darn.
We would have to make a mobile printer that has its own WiFi network on it then?

  • IPad based Printing via Bluetooth

    Hello All,
           We are working on ipad buletooth enabled printer.
    We need to do program on the following for iPad.
    The Requirement is:
    We have an ipad that detects the nearby bluetooth enabled printer, then from the ipad we will give a print of document / pdf /any thing to the printer (the ipad that detects the printer via bluetooth).
    Note: we dont want to use any third-party plugin's or apps from iStore.
    Please let us know how we proceed further.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi PogoPossum,
        Thanks for your reply...! and thanks for your suggestions.
    We are new to this apple enivronment
    After searching no of forums We have an idea that ipad supports head-set & Keyboard (both are bluetooth enabled). Suppose let me explain our idea on this.
    There is an ipad which is bluetooth enabled which detects an external keyboard(via bluetooth).
    Suppose if i am not wrong from the external keyboard if i type some text (APPLE) then in the ipad (APPLE) will be displayed on a notepad or any app.
    In same way vice-versa can be applied or not from the 2nd point? if possible i want to know the flow of communication b/w ipad to keyboard.
    If possible then i want to emulate a printer on keyboard, is this is correct that we are thinking...!
    Simply from the ipad i will enter some text (APPLE) the same ascii code is given to a printer.
    I think i may be wrong also please correct..!
    Thanks

  • Print via bluetooth direct to printer

    I have the 8330 BB Curve (my 3rd blackberry) and I am trying to print directly from my bb to a printer via Bluetooth. Now I was in a store and made it work with a multifunction HP printer. I then took home a Canon IP100 portable and got a bluetooth adaptor. Canon, however does not support direct printing, only HP. So I returned it and got a portable HP H470, but the wi-fi version (couldn't get the bluetooth one easily) and tried putting the bluetooth adaptor in it, but cannot get it to print. Any suggestions?

    hello,
    it is a HP H470 issue. Contact HP support and ask them if there is a way of using that device with a bluetooth adapter.

  • My iPhone 5S no longer sees my wireless printer via bluetooth

    my iPhone 5S no longer sees my wireless printer via bluetooth.  All it does in Settings is continually search for devices.  I've rebooted the phone, as well as the printer.  I even sat next to the printer with no luck.  It did find the printer when I initially set it up.

    Did this work for you in the past?
    ios does not support bluetooth printers without extra software.

    Print directly to the widest range of network or WiFi printers available in any app. Alternatively print via your computer to ALL printers including USB & Bluetooth printers. View read and display large PDF, Office & iWork files. Easily transfer & store files from the Cloud or your computer.

    You need to buy the right printer.
    The iPad uses a print technology called AirPrint. Airprint is a particular communication protocol that flows over WiFi.  So, having a WiiFi printer isn't sufficient. The printer needs to be of an Airprint variety of WiFi.

  • Why won't dropbox documents print via bluetooth to a pima ip100

    Why won't dropbox documents print via bluetooth to a pixma ip100 from a Mac Pro.  The ip100 prints gibberish continuously until it is unplugged.  There is no other way to stop the printing.

    Pages can save documents to PDF format, but does not open them natively. Use iBooks or one of the many free apps available for that purpose on the App Store.

  • Connecting to Printer via Bluetooth, documents print gibberish

    Howdy,
    I have a Canon Pixma iP100 and have recently installed the bluetooth accessory so that I could print wirelessly from my computer and iPhone via bluetooth. However, it won't work! I have sent documents to the printer from my computer and the documents come out in gibberish. Varying about 10 - 20 lines per page, it's become a real waste of paper and is getting to be really frustrating. Once it starts to print a document, it continuously spits out these pages of gibberish until the paper runs out as if there is no 'last page.' It does however print photos.
    I also am unable to connect my iPhone to the printer. It will not recognize that the printer is available to connect so therefore won't print anything (documents or photos). Any ideas?
    I've followed the Bluetooth Guide that came with the Canon Setup Utility and have set up the bluetooth preferences within it.
    I have a Macbook Pro (OS X 10.5.8) and an iPhone 3Gs (4.2.1)
    Thank you for your help!

    Hi again:
    Since the printer works when cable connected, it appears that he BT connection is the problem (not exactly a startling revelation! ).
    You probably have already done so, but my next step would be to contact Canon (tech support) to see if there is a software update and/or a workaround. I am jumping to conclusions, but I suspect the Canon software is not playing well with your Mac.
    Barry
    P.S. There is no OS X setting that I am aware of that would cause what you describe. However, you could trash a preference file (com.apple.bluetooth.plist) and restart. It would also not hurt to reset the SMC.

  • How do I connect via bluetooth my ipad with my Blackberry Torch

    How do I connect my ipad to my blackberry torch via bluetooth.

    am kinda regretting why I bought an iPad if it cannot interact with other devices, like the blackberry phone I have. I want to share pictures between the two devices but I cannot! Why is this so??????
    iOS does not support file transfer via Bluetooth. If you want to transfer photos, you'll need to sync through your computer or use a cloud-based service.
    Please help me otherwise this will be the last iPad I'll ever own.
    If you think some other device will suit you better, by all means sell your iPad and buy that other device.
    BTW, posting in a thread that's over two and half years old is not usually the best way to get help from us, who are all just your fellow users, just FYI.

  • How to send docs via bluetooth from / to iPad?

    How to send quickly docs via bluetooth from / to iPad instead via itunes etc?

    I would very much like for there to be a way to quickly transfer a small block of text from iPad to iMac without copying and pasting it into an email/creating a small separate doc and using iTunes/using the cloud or dropbox or using Notes. Bluetooth worked fine for me between my laptop and iMac, quick and easy. WiFi would be better.
    I keep a large journal on my iPad using Pages (I'm a writer) and sometimes I just want to use/send a small selection of text from it to the iMac. It would be really nice if I could select the text and see in the popup options something like 'send to iMac' or other device.
    If you are running OSX 10.8.2 on your iMac, you can use iCloud and the Notes applications on your iPad and iMac to transfer the block of text in a note between the two devices.  I do this with simple notes and lists.  In your settings on each device, make sure Notes is turned ON under the iCloud tab.

    That model doesn't appear to be one that supports AirPrint - those that do are listed on this page. I think that the Epson iPrint app might support that model so you could try that.

  • Sharing printer via Bluetooth

    Hi,
    Is't possible to share my network printers (or printers connected direct to my mac) to my mobile phone using bluetooth and Mac?
    Why? I want to print my text messages directly from the phone and it can only print to bluetooth printers.

    She should be able to print once she chooses your printer. (Of course, your computer needs to be turned on, since it's the one connected to the printer.)
