Bluetooth printer, laptop and phone advice??

[Big Lee]

Hi folks,

I`ve just bought a bluetooth dongle http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=777_9&products_id=106724 and I can transfer stuff to my pc via my phone but not the other way round. I was also considering getting a dongle for my printer, Canon ip5300 http://www.canon.co.uk/for_home/product_finder/printers/inkjet/PIXMA_iP5300/index.asp but I`m not sure if it`ll all work together or even how to try.

Any advice much appreciated!

Cheers

Lee

Seems strange that you can't transfer info to the phone also, what phone is it? I am sure that you cannot connect a bluetooth dongle into the printer and print via bluetooth, never heard of it before, I know there are WiFi printers available and there may be bluetooth printers but I have never heard of anyone achieving what you are proposing.

If it works let me know

The phone is a samsung tocco lite. I was wondering about the printer as theres drivers to be downloaded for the pc but no way of getting anything like that on the printer.
