savak Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 HiI have two computers and two printers (injet & laser) I want to print from either computer to either printer. Consequently I bought bluetooth receivers and a dongle off Ebay. The software installed ok and finds the bluetooth printer, but I'm asked for a PINnumber for the reciever of one of the printers and when I enter my own Pin, as one was not provided with the reciever, I get an error telling me the pairing has failed. It does this each time even with reinstalled software.The hardware reciever is InstantPan model BPA01. It is class one as is the dongle and also 2.4ghz. It supports HCRP and SPP. If anyone has any idea of how get this working please let me know.ThanksGraeme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madboy33 Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 pin is usually 0000 (zero zero zero zero) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savak Posted January 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 Thanks. Got it sorted. It seems you only have a certain length of time before the pairing is cancelled and you have to start the process again.Will post again if I have any other problems.Graeme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
