Software description Bluetooth Bluetooth®* wireless technology is a low-power, short-range radio technology that can be used to wirelessly connect computers, printers, personal digital assistants (PDAs), cell phones, and other devices. * Bluetooth is a trademark owned by its proprietor and used by Hewlett-Packard Company under license. Because Bluetooth wireless technology uses radio signals, devices do not have to be in the same room, office, or cubicle and do not require an unobstructed line of sight in order to communicate. This wireless technology increases portability and efficiency within business networks. The HP LaserJet 2410, 2420, and 2430 printer can use a Bluetooth adapter (hp bt1300) to incorporate Bluetooth wireless technology. The adapter is available for either USB or parallel connections. The adapter has a 10-meter line-of-site operation range in the 2.5 GHz ISM band and can achieve data transfer rates up to 723 Kbps. The device supports the following Bluetooth profiles: ■ Hardcopy Cable Replacement Profile (HCRP) ■ Serial Port Profile (SPP) ■ Object Push Profile (OPP) ■ Basic Imaging Profile (BIP) ■ Basic Printing Profile (BPP) with XHTML-Print Remote firmware update The HP LaserJet 2410, 2420, and 2430 printers feature remote firmware update (RFU) capability. The method for downloading remote firmware updates from the Web site is similar to that used to download the latest printing-system software and print drivers. The process for remotely upgrading firmware involves three steps: 1 Determine the current level of firmware that is installed on the printer. 2 Go to the HP Web site and download the latest firmware to your computer. 3 Download the new firmware to the product.
