Introduction

The TROY WindConnect

TM

Bluetooth

TM

Print Adapter is a device that enables

wireless communications capabilities on most models of printers. By using the
WindConnect, you can conveniently print from laptop computers and other
devices without using a cable, as shown in the diagram below.

This manual covers installation of the WindConnect for use with laptop computers
that have a TROY, IBM

®

or Toshiba Bluetooth PCMCIA card. The WindConnect

Bluetooth Print Adapter can also be used with other Bluetooth enabled devices, pro-

vided that they support the Bluetooth Serial Port Profile, the LAN Access Profile, or
the Object Push Profile. Installation of these other types of devices is described in
Chapter 3 of this manual

Note: The WindConnect

Bluetooth Print Adapter is designed for printing text

and low-resolution graphics. Because of the speed limitations of the

Bluetooth

wireless communications link, you should not use the WindConnect to print high
resolution graphics or photographs. To get better printing performance with
Bluetooth, you might want to consult your printer’s user guide.
