H470 bluetooth setup help

[SchnicktarMan]

I downloaded the OJ_SF_H470_Full_Win_WW_140_404-4.exe full driver for the H470 and Windows 8.1.

I cannot find where to install/setup for a bluetooth connection.  I have only found WiFi and USB connection options.

Any help in seting up for blueooth would be appreciated.

Hi,

Have you put the "dongle" onto its slot ? What is the color of its light ? And what is its status ?

The LED on the Bluetooth accessory provides information about its current state.
• On steady - This is the default state and means the accessory is installed and has power.
• Rapid blinking - A sending device is discovering the Bluetooth accessory.
• Blinking - The Bluetooth accessory is receiving data.

Please use the following setup from your computer:

Configure Bluetooth wireless settings

To configure Bluetooth wireless settings (Windows)
1. Connect the device to your computer with a USB cable.
2. Insert the Bluetooth wireless USB accessory into the slot in the device.
3. Open the Toolbox. For more information, see Toolbox (Windows).
4. Click Configure Bluetooth Settings.
5. Set the Bluetooth wireless options you want.
6. After you have set the options you want, click Apply.
7. A warning dialog box appears.
8. Click OK to proceed.
9. Close the Toolbox.
The printer ignores any other device that tries to establish a connection. The device must wait until the original connection is closed before it can establish a new connection.

The LED on the BT dongle is solid blue.

I have configured the BT settings using the Toolbox.  But how is this supposed to create a printer with a BT connection?

I currently have a H470 printer with WiFi configured as well as an H470 printer with USB configured.  I pulled out the WiFi dongle and put in the BT dongle, but when I run the setup program there is no option to install a BT printer, only USB and WiFi.

I do not have my original setup CD so can't try doing the steps on p60/61 of the manual.  I assumed that the current FULL driver for Windows 8.1 would have BT capability.

Thanks.
