070904 -  ..
070905 - Today, tried to set up on c17 for bluetooth wireless mouse.  Plugged

070907 - recognizing a new device and no setup wizard.
070909 -  ..
070910 - Manual received with Bluetooth covers about 30 languages.  English is
070911 - somewhere in the middle.  There is no evident table of contents.
070912 - This makes English difficult to find, and the manual is not
070913 - effective.

070945 - Manual explains generally....
070946 -
070947 -        The HP Bluetooth Adapter wireless printer adapter uses
070948 -        Bluetooth wireless technology to allow you to print without
070949 -        using a cable.  In general, Bluetooth wireless technology is a
070950 -        short-range wireless technology that allows connection between
070951 -        devices without requiring a cable.  By using your HP Bluetooth
070952 -        Adapter, you can print from your camera phone, PDA, digital
070953 -        camera, or computer to selected HP printers and all in ones.
070955 -  ..
070956 - Since c17 is already printing wirelessly, not clear how bluetooth
070957 - coordinates with existing capability.
070959 -  ..
070960 - This language sounds like the title on the CD that came with the unit
070961 - saying it is a "printer" adapter.
070963 -  ..
070964 - Delivery packaging on the back expressly says it supports wireless
070965 - mouse.
070967 -  ..
070968 - Maybe just have to boot the computer.
070970 -  ..
070971 - This did not solve the problem.

070974 - Tried this again later, and seemed to make more progress.
