    Easy installation with a compact discreet lightweight size. Works perfectly for the wireless or portable savy user. If your computer does not have Bluetooth you can easily attach a Bluetooth USB Adapter ie Iogear Bluetooth Adapter. Softwares and installation for both are a breeze though require some reading, the time is well worth it. As for the price- I feel that it is within reasonable means. I has little ones running around my small work area when I am indoor so having to de-clutter and go wireless is more practical than having cords and wires across the room just waiting for someone to trip, damage a device, get hurt, and having to go to the hospitals ER and paying an expensive medical bill is quiet a chaos I am avoiding especially in this though economic times. Great wireless within 10 meters (30-33feet). Good Luck to all the wireless savvys!

    Confused

    There should be instructions included. I got this for my wireless printer, and have used the printer help pages, which haven't helped me at all. I still don't have it working.

        The product works well with the Canon PIXMA iP100. Fits inside the printer in the space provided and it's easy to install, connect and use.

                Comments about Canon BU-30 Bluetooth Adapter:

                bought this little baby for my Canon ip 100 portable printer. Works pretty slick - now there's no need for me to mess around with an USB cable - one less thing to keep track of - especially when traveling. It fits right inside the printer so it doesn't show anything sticking out - I like that! Makes for a nice clean installation. I'd also like to make a comment about B&H... been buying stuff from them for a couple of years now and they always come through. NO HASSLES... stuff just shows up at my doorstep. I'm always amazed at their speedy delivery. Keep up the good service B&H! ...and, their prices are fair and better than a lot of other places, but the BEST thing... you can count on their reliability and that is worth more than maybe saving a few bucks at the cost of frustration. Thanks

                              Works great...but you have to do a Google search to find out how to get it installed. Why Canon doesn't include more help - who knows! But once installed it's nice.

                                          The bluetooth wireless adapter is a great option, if you don't have a wireless network to hook your printer up to. I can print using my Bluetooth on my laptop up to 30' from the printer. I have had no issues printing this way as of yet. The only draw back would be scanning. I cannot scan using Bluetooth, I still have to hook up with the USB cable. Not the end of the world for me though.

                                                Just plug it in to your Selphy cp800 and start printing from your cell phone or other blue tooth device, no problems what so ever.

                                                    Easy installation with a compact discreet lightweight size. Works perfectly for the wireless or portable savy user. If your computer does not have Bluetooth you can easily attach a Bluetooth USB Adapter ie Iogear Bluetooth Adapter. Softwares and installation for both are a breeze though require some reading, the time is well worth it. As for the price- I feel that it is within reasonable means. I has little ones running around my small work area when I am indoor so having to de-clutter and go wireless is more practical than having cords and wires across the room just waiting for someone to trip, damage a device, get hurt, and having to go to the hospitals ER and paying an expensive medical bill is quiet a chaos I am avoiding especially in this though economic times. Great wireless within 10 meters (30-33feet). Good Luck to all the wireless savvys!

                                                    Easy to install and configure. Like it a lot better than my wi-fi setup as long as you are 33ft or less from your computer.

                                                    This product works right out of the box. I was tired of not being able to print over my pc/mac network, but using this product solved my problem. Just connect it to the printer, pair it up with your bluetooth enabled computer, make the printer default and that's it!

                                                    It works great if you are wanting to print wireless and you don't have wifi. It's easy to setup and use. The cost is pretty expensive when you consider all it really does.
