HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Installing the USB Printer
Please do not connect any devices other than a USB printer directly to the USB port of
the Adapter.
1. With the printer powered off, connect one end of a standard USB cable to the USB
B-type connector of your USB printer and connect the other end to the USB type A
printer connector on the Adapter.
Note: You must have the printer driver installed in each computer you wish to print from
prior to use. Go to the Control Panel in Windows and open the “Printers” folder. Select
“Add a Printer” and choose a “Local Printer” (not network printer or USB printer). Then
select the “Bluetooth Port” as its’ port.
2. Connect the included power adapter into an available power outlet. Attach the barrel
plug into the power jack of the Adapter. You should see the Bluetooth and USB LED
blink rapidly for three seconds and then the USB (Amber) LED will remain blinking.
3. Power on the connected USB printer.
Your Bluetooth USB Printer Adapter is now installed and ready for use.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Connecting Via Serial Port Profile
The method of connecting to the printer described below is for use of the Serial Port
Profile. For example, using the Bluetooth PC Card (part number F8T002), or the
Bluetooth USB Adapter (part number F8T001 or F8T003) from Belkin on Windows or
devices that use WIDCOMM BTW software.
1. Double-click on the Bluetooth icon on
your desktop.
2. Choose Bluetooth from the menu bar.
Click “Search for devices”. The “Belkin
USB Printer” icon should appear.
3. Double-click on the icon. You should
see “Discovering Services”. Icons will
appear symbolizing the services your
device offers.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION
4. Double-click on the “Virtual Printer” icon.
5. A connection via Serial Port Profile over
the virtual COM port will be created. This
is usually “COM3” or “COM4” but can be
configured to another port. Make note of
the COM port for your specific application.
6. Go to Control Panel in Windows and open
the “Printers” folder.
10
HARDWARE INSTALLATION
7. Right-click on the printer you pre-installed and choose “Properties”.
8. Select the “Ports” tab.
9. Under the “Ports” section, select the printer
for the virtual COM port created in step 5.
You are now ready to print via Bluetooth
technology to your USB printer.
Note: Each time you would like to print via the
printer connected to the Adapter, you will have
to double-click on the “Virtual [USB Printer]”
icon first to make a connection, unless you set
the printer you created above to be your
default printer. In that case, the PC stack will
automatically send the print job via virtual
COM port.
11
HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Connecting Via Hardcopy Replacement Profile
The method of connecting to the printer described below is for use of the Hardcopy
Replacement Profile. For example, using the Bluetooth PC Card (part number F8T002),
or the Bluetooth USB Adapter (part number F8T001 or F8T003) from Belkin on
Windows or devices that use WIDCOMM
BTW software.
1. Double-click on the Bluetooth icon on
your desktop.
2. Choose “Bluetooth” from the menu bar.
Click “Search for devices”. The “Belkin
USB Printer” icon should appear.
3. Double-click on the icon. You should
see “Discovering Services”. Icons will
appear symbolizing the services your
device offers.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION
4. Double-click on the “Hardcopy Cable

the printer connected to your Adapter.
7. Follow the wizard to complete the printer installation.

FAQs
Which Bluetooth Profiles does the USB Printer Adapter support?
The Adapter supports the Serial Port Profile and the Hardcopy Replacement Profile.
Can I connect multiple Bluetooth devices to the Adapter?
Yes, you may. Every time a print job is sent, your computing device will create a
connection with the Adapter. Once the print job is complete, your computing device
will disconnect and make the Adapter available for other devices to use.
My Printer Status Monitor Utility indicates that there is no connection with the
printer. Is my Adapter functioning properly?
Because the Adapter disconnects after every print job to make itself available to
other devices, there is no constant communication between your Adapter and your
computing device. This may conflict with some printer monitor utilities. We recommend
that you disable any printer monitor utilities for your printer or disable bidirectional
support for the connected printer.
15
FAQs
Does the Adapter support multifunctional printers?
We recommend that you do not use multifunctional printers that support other
non-printing functions. The Adapter only supports printing via Bluetooth. Other
functions like scanning will not work through the Adapter.
Can I print from my Pocket PC or Palm™ handheld enabled with
Bluetooth technology?
Yes, you can. You will need to install a print utility on your PDA first. For example,
“PrintPocketCE” for Pocket PCs from Field Software or “PrintBoy” for Palm OS® by
Pearson Software.
