alienjenn Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 so I figured this would be a good place to figure this out... I have an HP photosmart 2570... I also have win 8... now... according to this page that my printer gave me... I have a blue tooth connection?? but in win 8 the only options for connecting it are through a ethernet connection to a router (which I probably have one in a drawer somewhere and I *could* hook it up if that were the only way to wirelessly print) but if I can connect through the bluetooth that would be awesome! I can't figure out how to discover the printer with my laptop... I can't figure out how to tell in win 8 if I have bluetooth capability... my last computer just had a bluetooth button... sigh... I downloaded the newest drivers from HP because it wouldn't even auto install... so I have new drivers... I am just trying to figure out how to connect it with the bluetooth the more advanced computers get the stupider I feel :/ any help is appreciated !! and earns virtual bacon Level 10.4 Wood-Elf, Ranger - specializing in demon fighting "doing the impossible since 2012 :D" - Librarian of Doom facebook battle log level 50 WOOT Backstory CNF2014 current (not challenge - doing a battle log this time) Spoiler * This is the day the Lord has made, rejoice in it and be glad.

Laney Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Your printer may have Blutetooth but chances are your PC doesn't, most don't unless they are high end or a business model computer. All you have to do is go to the tiles and start typing "Bluetooth". If something comes up, then you have it.You can buy a Bluetooth adapter but wireless works just fine.

Frost of the Gloaming Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 You are going to need an adapter for it, which imho is just another way to get some more money from you, and belkin and logistics work just as well as HP products and for the most part are cheaper Between a rock and a hard place, use our finger nails to climb, it's all we know..........
