Where do I find this pin#? Trying get my printer to work/windows 10 laptop using Belkin Bluetooth Wireless USB Printer Adapter (f8t031).keeps asking for PIN #. I havevtried 0000 and 1234 and 9999
Belkin Bluetooth Wireless USB Printer Adapter (f8t031) 14 year old Belkin. there is no software that old for it now. it is BT to USB to printer adapter. and the w10 laptop must have driver for this very very old Belkin. and I bet none exists.
i find the manual on line is 5 seconds flat, 16 pages, work pin not in the manual or P.I.N. page 6 states; Q: LEDs Bluetooth LED (Blue) On/Blinking: Bluetooth device is connected to the Adapter Off: No Bluetooth devices are connected to the Adapter USB LED (Amber) Fast Blinking: No printer detected Slow Blinking: Printer detected
what to those do? page 7 tells you the unsted printer must have the driver for the printer installed in the PC is it? here is the manual it is very tricky I did this years ago and it ended at w8 with no drivers w10 work for BELKEN.

Bluetooth is available with some HP printers as a wireless printing option. Read the blog to Connect HP Bluetooth Printer to Laptop
and set up the connection to start printing.
You cannot install this adapter in a Win 7 computer because the drivers are not compatible with Win 7.
So far Belkin haven't updated the drivers for win 7 OS. The latest drivers for this adapter is compatible only with
" Windows 98SE, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP 32-bit, Windows Vista 32-bit "
Click hereto see the belkin compatible drivers in the website.
You were probably using it on an XP or Vista PC. You will need to go to www.belkin.com and download the Windows 7 wireless adapter driver. Go to belkin, support and drivers, put the F8T003 model number in, put Win7 as your operating system, download the driver and double-click on it to install it. Then insert your Bluetooth Wireless adapter in and it should work just fine.

1) you need it to print from a laptop if you do not want to have to set up another computer, and mobile phone have bluetooth buit in 2) YES 3) set up the printer on another computer, and set it for sharing. Then make sure that you laptop is recognized in the network connections wizard, then on the laptop select add new printer and select the bullett that say a network printer. the rest is pretty easy, select browse for a printer or something, it is the first option, select it, say yes to all dialogue boxes, and let the computer do the rest.
the only thing that connects the printer to the internet fault is the fact that the printer and your belkin are both usb connected.
If you are using a laptop then it could be a usb power problem and the motherboard is disconnecting the belkin adapter for some reason, the only one i can think of is a power problem.
The same can apply to a desktop pc if there is a usb problem
Firsly i assume you are using the belkin software to connect the usb adapter to the router, so on your taskbar on the right there is normally the little aerial type icon for the belkin adapter and a little pc screen showing the connection also, if you right click on one of theses icons you should get a line reading 'enable windows WZC', if you do get the option enable it and try using the windows connection software instead of the belkin as it may stop the disconnecting.
Also ensure that when you installed the software to your printer your firewall and antivirus was dissabled as certain elements to the driver may not have been installed.
Lasly, try using different usb ports if you have spare ones, with both the printer and the adapter as sometimes the chip on the board may be instructing the usb ports incorrectly as to which is required first, as windows asks for certain things eg input/output ports to be used first,in other words the IRQ (interupt request) may be causing the problem.
