Hello all.

About 20 years ago, I had a HP Photo printer. These were amazing small devices where you could print 4x7 and possibly 5x8 photos (I forget) wirelessly from your mobile phone (if you had the aforementioned adapter) or from a memory card.

I'm sad they stopped making these types of product such a long time ago, its niche but I would still love to have a standalone photo printer.

 

Anyhoo, I still have the Bluetooth adapter, so my question is can the adapter be used as just a Bluetooth access point? I remember trying about ten years ago and it couldn't be done. I have a Raspberry Pi B+ which I am going to try it in, if the Pi does end up self configuring it I will update this post accordingly, but any information, advice or drivers to aid this would be appreciated.
