    Canon Bluetooth BU-30 Adaptor for Canon Pixma ip100 (portable)
  

*by P***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2013*

I bought the Canon Bluetooth BU-30 Adaptor from Amazon, so I could print wirelessly using my small portable printer (Pixma ip100 which as an aside, is a fantastic printer in my view - expensive but faultless and good quality in a smallish, lightish package AND relatively frugal on inks, especially when buying non-OEM inks from Amazon).When the BU-30 Adaptor arrived in the official Canon box I breathed a sigh of relief (given the current unprecedented circulation of fakes of everything worthwhile electronically) but then was disappointed to notice that no instructions of any kind were included.  Oh well, must be an easy install I thought - DUH! NOT!I downloaded (twice to be sure) the latest printer driver from Canon for my printer and for my Mac's OSX 10.6.8 and ran through all the obvious bluetooth and printer set up commands and functions I could find and even though my computer bluetooth was able to find and apparently pair with the adaptor, when push came to shove, i.e. actually printing something, it would not work and kept offering the advice that the Printer was offline and/or disconnected.  After at least 5-6 hours of unsuccessful full-time effort trying everything I could think of to get my printer to print wirelessly using the BU-30 Adaptor with my "bluetooth-ready" MacBook Pro, I reluctantly called Canon's technical service thinking that they would either have me in limbo forever (i.e. on hold in various computer driven phone loops) or want to charge me for advice/support or something else I wouldn't like.  But no, I was wrong and experienced that rarest of items these days - great, fast, responsive and very successful telephone Technical Service.  Really I did - thank you Jennifer!Here's what I learned and I have just repeated the process (before writing this review/comment) to make sure that the process works faultlessly and it does:When first pairing with the adaptor plugged into the USB port on the right side of the printer, have the printer really close to the bluetooth enabled computer until it prints successfully one time - after that you can move the computer many feet away (up to 10 at least in my case) and it still prints fine.  Also if you have had problems with pairing already,  do first delete all earlier attempts and lists in the printers available box and start again with the computer right next to the printer.AND for the finale - le piece de resistance - I was told how to install the bluetooth adaptor 'permanently' inside the printer - it is easy and so worthwhile as I now how a wireless printer with no plug-in item sticking out, waiting to be broken or removed/stolen or lost - way cool - here's what to do.  Unplug the power cord from the back left side of the printer and use a gentle prying action (with small blunt knife/screwdriver or whatever) to carefully lever off the entire shiny, black, plastic-insert, left-side of the printer (you will see the small indent for this purpose on the back edge of the black plastic side right next to where the power connector plugs in).  With the black plastic removed you will notice the perfect shaped indentated space in the upper right corner of the internal case and if you look at it from the right edge you will see there is a femail USB port which you can slide/push your BU-30 adaptor onto (it is a little bit tricky - make sure the Canon logo on the adaptor is facing out) but you can push it on there like any good tight usb fitting.  Then gently clip the entire black plastic side back on the printer - eh VOILA! - you have internalized wireless printing capability for your Pixma ip100!Way to go - good job Canon!

    Works great but comes with no instructions
  

*by H***K on Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2011*

I purchased the BU-30 for use with my Canon PIXMA iP100 portable printer to print from my MacBook Pro laptop. The instructions in the box say to refer to the instructions with the printer. The instructions with the printer then say to refer to instructions installed somewhere on the computer, which I could not find, so I assumed the latest iP100 drivers that I downloaded and installed didn't place the manual on my hard drive. So working without instructions I figured out how to get the BU-30 working as follows:[EDIT April 20, 2012 - Works with OS X Lion][EDIT Dec. 6, 2012 - Also works with OS X Mountain Lion][EDIT Jan. 30, 2013 - Several individuals have asked if the BU-30 works with an iPhone or iPad. The answer is it will work with Apple mobile devices only if the printer supports Apple's AirPrint protocol. Check with your printer manufacturer or the specifications in the printer's documentation to verify if it supports AirPrint. If the printer doesn't support AirPrint, the BU-30 will be of no use to you.][Edit Oct. 20, 2014 - works fine with OS X Mavericks - still going strong. I haven't upgraded to Yosemite as I usually wait for initial releases to go through several updates to sort out the defects. When I upgrade to Yosemite, I'll post another update.][Edit Mar. 22, 2015 - works fine with OS X Yosemite.]1. Download the latest drivers for your printer from the Canon USA web site and install the package first.2. Make sure the BU-30 is inserted into the the printer's USB port and the printer is turned on.3. Open up System Preferences and select Bluetooth. Make sure bluetooth is enabled on your Mac.4. On the bottom of the left panel, click on the "+" button to "Setup new device".5. Wait for the Setup Bluetooth Assistant to find your printer. If it doesn't find the printer check that the printer is within 15-20 feet of your Mac and try again.6. Pair with the printer. You'll see a message to enter "0000" that will disappear quickly. You won't need to enter anything.7. You'll now be redirected to the Print and Fax panel. You won't see the printer listed (you have to manually add it).8. At the bottom of the left panel in the Print and Fax dialog box, click on the "+" button to add a new printer. The Add Printer dialog box will be displayed.9. At the top of the Add Printer dialog box, click on the "Default" printer icon.10. You will see your printer in the printer list. In my case my printer is listed as "Canon iP100 series(D5:14:29)"11. Select your printer then click on the "Add" button.12. You're done. You should now be able to print to your printer via bluetooth.The BU-30 works quite well but I gave it only 4 stars because there are no instructions on how to install the adapter in the box. At the least, they could have offered a web address to find the instructions instead of sending you on a wild goose chase.I hope the above helps other Mac owners.

    So far it doesn't work!
  

*by O***S on Reviewed in Canada on December 12, 2012*

We've tried everything we can think of and so far we can't make this work!  We've gone on-line to forums and followed other peoples' suggestions (it is a very common problem!) and still nothing.  I guess we'll have to break down and take it to a computer geek to see if it can even be done.  So ... it is not the 'plug and go' thing you think it might be!
