Using the Bluetooth Function
You can establish wireless communications between your computer and other Bluetooth
®
devices such as another computer
or a mobile phone. You can transfer data between these devices without cables at a range of up to 10 meters in an open area.
Notes on using the Bluetooth function
The data transfer rate varies, depending on the following conditions:
Obstacles, such as walls, located between devices
Distance between devices
Material used in walls
Proximity to microwaves and cordless telephones
Radio frequency interference and other environmental conditions
Device configuration
Type of software application
Type of operating system
Use of both wireless LAN and Bluetooth functions at the same time on your computer
Size of file being exchanged
Large files may occasionally be corrupted during continuous transfer due to limitations of the Bluetooth standard and
electromagnetic interference in the environment.
All Bluetooth devices must be certified to make sure that the applicable standard requirements are maintained. Even if
standards are met, individual device performance, specifications, and operation procedures can vary. Data exchange may
not be possible in all situations.
