Bluetooth Printer Adaptor?

Hi I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to computers so I'd like some advice - is it possible to buy a bluetooth adapter for a regular printer, something I can plug into the USB port where the cable goes so I can send things upstairs for printing - I already have a USB adaptor that I use to send things to a mobile phone.

Is it a question of just buying another one of these adaptors? Will a normal one receive files so the printer can print them or do I need something more specialist?

If so where would be the best place to buy one of these?

Thanks in advance! :D

  • Just buying a bluetooth dongle won't make your regular printer bluetooth capable, you won't be able to install the drivers.

    The printer would have to be bluetooth capable out of the box.
