You’ve initiated a search for nearby Bluetooth printers on an iPAQ 5450/55, but the resulting
list is empty.
There may be a faulty connection between the Bluetooth printer and Bluetooth Manager that is
preventing HP Mobile Printing from connecting to, or searching for, that printer.
To correct the problem, do one of the following two options:
1. Verify that your Bluetooth radio is turned on and that you are within 10 meters of the
printer.
2. Try several searches.
3. Turn off any nearby Bluetooth devices that could be interfering.
4. Remove the connection between the printer and the COM port. This connection, as shown
in the Active Connections list, was established in the iPAQ 5450/55 Bluetooth Manager.
a. Tap Start, tap iPAQ Wireless, and then tap Bluetooth Manager.
b. Tap and hold on the printer icon. A pop-up menu appears.
