How to Change a Canon Printer From USB to Bluetooth

Some Canon printers possess the ability to connect to your computer via both USB and Bluetooth. When connecting through a Bluetooth connection, you do not need any wires or cables running between the computer and Canon printer. If you have been using the USB connection, you can change to Bluetooth at any time, as long as your Canon printer is Bluetooth enabled. If not, you can't adjust your printer to function as a Bluetooth device.

Instructions

1 Remove the USB cable connection. You don't need to add any new drivers because the current printers are already installed from your USB connection.

2 Click the "Start" button on the desktop and select the "Run" option. A small window appears on your screen.

3 Type "bthprops.cpl" (without the quotation marks) and click "OK." This opens the Bluetooth settings window.

4 Click "Add" in the window then chose "My device is set up and ready to be found." Click "Next" and the computer scans for any nearby Bluetooth devices.

5 Choose your Canon Bluetooth printer from the list that pops up and click "Next." The printer now connects to your computer and you can begin using it with the wireless connection.

Canon Pixma MX870 Office All-In-One Printer Wireless Printing Problems

Reason

The Canon Pixma MX870 Office All-In-One Printer wirelessly brings professional-quality printing, copying, scanning, and faxing to your small business or home office. This Pixma is ready for networking from within range of your wireless router or you can network via its wired Ethernet interface. You can enjoy computer-free printing capabilities via compatible memory cards, PictBridge, and optional Bluetooth, while images are easily viewed on a 2.5" LCD. This printer boasts 9600 x 2400dpi resolution which combines with a 5-ink cartridge system that includes a pigment black ink and 4 dye-based color inks to deliver documents with crisp, clear text, and professional-looking photos with rich colors and contrast.

Solution

The MX870 is operated via an Easy Scroll Wheel which makes it easy to view and correct your photos for printing and to access the various features available for faster operation. Its 35-page Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) keeps your workflow going and can save you money with automatic two-sided printing.

This Pixma features Canon's Auto Photo Fix II technology which automatically categorizes your images into one of five types - Portrait, Scenery, Night Scenery, Snapshot with Scenery, and Snapshot with Night Scenery - then applies optimal image and multi-zone exposure correction. With Dual Color Gamut Technology, your copies and scans will be superb as the MX870 automatically optimizes your originals so copies stay true, even when copying from a copy. The MX870's versatility goes beyond previous models, allowing you to print your photos wirelessly from compatible iPhone 3G, 3GS and iPod touch models with the new Easy-PhotoPrint for iPhone App, available for free on the app store.


Note! The MX870 does NOT provide direct fax capability under Mac OS X. To send a fax using a Mac is a two-step process: one must print the document and then send the FAX. Direct print from a PC is supported.

Extraordinary Resolution

Realize the power of 9600 x 2400 maximum color dpi firing with ink droplets as little as 1 picoliter. The MX870 delivers incredible quality and detail in both your business documents and photos.

High Performance Individual Ink System

This 5-color ink system consists of four dye-based inks plus a pigment-based black ink, producing exceptional photos and crisp, laser-quality text. Only replace the color ink tank that runs out. So, you save money on ink.

Fully-Integrated Duplex Auto Document Feeder

The built-in 35 sheet Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) makes it easy to copy, scan or fax multiple documents without having to load them one at a time. Its full integration makes it easier to fit into tight spots and once it's loaded you can do whatever else you want.

Auto Duplex Printing

Built-in Auto Duplex Printing prints 2-sided documents without having to manually flip the pages and can reduce your paper consumption by 50%. This means you can automatically copy two sided documents without having to flip any paper manually at all.

Easy Scroll Wheel

With the Easy Scroll Wheel you can quickly access and select the various features available for faster operation.

Auto Scan Mode

In the Auto Scan Mode, the MX870 automatically recognizes the type of original, then scans and saves the suitable settings.

For network users, Auto Scan Mode is only available when scanning at a computer using MP Navigator.

Dual Color Gamut Technology

Copy with confidence as this built-in technology automatically optimizes your originals so copies stay true to it, time after time, copy after copy.

Quick Start

Powering up your printer is now faster than ever. After pressing the power button you can begin inputting commands in approximately two seconds. So, full operation is possible in a much shorter time.

Auto Photo Fix II

This built-in technology automatically categorizes your images into one of five types - Portrait, Scenery, Night Scenery, Snapshot with Scenery, and Snapshot with Night Scenery - then applies optimal image and multi-zone exposure correction. So, unexposed areas of the photo will be optimized, area by area, and faces that are backlit and under-exposed will automatically be brightened with correct color cast to help ensure more accurate skin tones for gorgeous images.

Built-In Wireless Connectivity

Print or scan wirelessly from any Wi-Fi enabled computer around the house.

Wireless printing requires a network with wireless 802.11b/g capability. Wireless performance may vary based on terrain and distance between the printer and wireless network clients.

Built-In Ethernet

The wired LAN interface lets you connect to a home or office network, with connected computers sharing the power of this versatile machine, each being able to display the printer's status at any moment.
