Printing E-Mails Etc.

[Svejk]

When the chap set up my lap-top and printer, he 'linked' them together so I could print documents etc. off the lap-top,as it were.
Without me ploughing through all the manuals, I was wondering could I 'link' my mobile phone to the printer in a similar way.
Mobile=Blackberry Curve
Printer=HP officejet
Cheers

I'd 'plough through the manuals' if you say its possible.
Don't necessarily need instructions. (Though, I'll have them if they're simple) ;)

Assuming there's no cable connecting them, I'd be surprised if your laptop and printer are directly linked. It's far more likely that they're both using the wifi network created by your router. (i.e. your printer is 'linked' to your router and so is your laptop).

However I suppose that it's just possible that both your laptop and printer are bluetooth-enabled but there aren't that many printers with bluetooth (and probably even fewer laptops).

Assuming that you actually need to connect your Blackberry to your router, you need to invest £8.15 in this app:

(That's because the Blackberry Curve doesn't have printing support built into it).

Then see the simple "Print Via Wi-Fi" instructions here:

Cheers Chris, all sounds a bit complicated for me.
I thought my phone and lap-top were connected cos
the same e-mails appeared on both.
I think I'll have to have him come back. ;)

So you've got a new laptop, sweety? We might see you on here a bit more then.

Afternoon till.xx
I've had the lap-top for ages. I only use it for I-tune music. I think its a bit of a rip-off/too expensive to run. I'm on here every day. ;)

Ar'tnoon, sweety. I didn't realise that.

It's just that sometimes you seem to get in a kerfuffle with your phone. I thought you had no alternative.

Its not me getting in a 'kerfuffle', tilly. Its this blasted Welsh satellite can be a bit capricious. (Just took ages to answer you)
I only answer a crossword clue if there are no answers. By the time my answer appears 8 other people have answered it and I look a fool, and a copy-cat.

Well we can't all be the first to answer, can we? It doesn't matter if you're not first. It is nice when it happens though
