April Fools
Congratulations! You ain't no fool! Bluetooth Printing
Yesterday, I connected an IOGEAR GBP201 USB/Bluetooth Print Adapter to our printer. Installation was brain-dead. No software, just wires. Configuration was easy too, except for the lack of instructions for Macs.
We can now print from any of our machines, over Bluetooth. Sweet.
Printing from my 6630 did not work. Apparently Nokia implemented BPP (Basic Printing Profile) while the adapter supports HCRP (Hardcopy Cable Replacement Profile) and SPP (Serial Port Profile). Typical.
Nevertheless, if you're looking to share your USB printer and have Bluetooth handy; this is definitely the way to go.
Weekend Trip
Today, we'll be heading to Eastern Washington for the weekend. We're going to visit Vik's niece who just recently gave birth.
Since we'll be traveling, there probably won't be many linkblog updates today. Sorry about that. I'll try to catch up over the weekend. We should have good connectivity at the hotels we're staying at.
