HP Mobile Print currently supports Infrared (IR), Bluetooth, Network-based, and Service-based connections. While the printer may have multiple ways to connect, only one connection method can be set up at a time. For example, the HP DeskJet 995c supports both IR and Bluetooth connections, thus both IR and Bluetooth are valid selections for connecting to this printer. The user can set up a connection to print via Bluetooth right now and later set up an IR connection to the same printer.Selecting a connection method depends on what connections your printer supports. To determine if a printer has IR or Bluetooth capabilities, look for the IR port and Bluetooth radio located on the outside of the printer.  If neither of these are visible, then you might try connecting to the printer via a network or through a print service.
 User’s Guide 5–36Using Your HP Photosmart Camera■Bluetooth Connections - Faster than IR, but setting up a Bluetooth connection can differ from device to device.
