HP Photosmart D7460 Printer - Manual (Page 27)

To install and print using the Widcomm stack
1. Make sure that you have installed the HP Photosmart software on the computer.
NOTE: The purpose of installing the software is to make sure the printer driver
is available for the Bluetooth ® connection. Therefore, if you have already installed
the software, you do not need to reinstall it. If you want both a USB and a
Bluetooth
® connection to the HP Photosmart, install the USB connection first. For
more information, see the Setup Guide. However, if you do not want a USB
connection, select Directly to the computer on the Connection Type screen.
Also, on the Connect Your Device Now screen, select the check box next to If
you are unable to connect your device now... at the bottom of the screen.
2. Attach an HP bt450 to the front USB port of the HP Photosmart.
3. Click the My Bluetooth Places icon on the desktop or in the taskbar.
4. Click View devices in range.
5. Once the available printers are discovered, double-click the name of HP Photosmart
to finish the installation.
6. Print as you would to any printer.
Use printer sharing
If your computer is on a network, and another computer on the network has an
HP Photosmart connected to it by a USB cable, you can print to that printer using printer
sharing.
The computer directly connected to the HP Photosmart acts as the host for the printer
and has full software functionality. The other computer, which is referred to as a client,
has access only to the print features. You must perform other functions from the host
computer or from the control panel on the HP Photosmart.
To enable printer sharing on a Windows computer
▲ Refer to the user guide that came with your computer or see the Windows onscreen
Help.
