Hi,

Has anybody succeeded in developing a bluetooth application on the iPhone that prints to a Bluetooth printer?

I have been investigating the feasibility of developing an iPhone application that could print to a Bluetooth-enabled printer. I've gone through the most of the postings in this thread and was confused by the mail exchanges.

As per my analysis:

Gamekit - can be used for bluetooth connectivity between iPhones and IPods ONLY

Bonjour - can be used for wi-fi connectivity between iPhones/IPods and bonjour-enabled printer

We can use an external accessory to connect to a third party Bluetooth-enabled printer provided the 3rd-party printer complies with the necessary regulations from Apple (registering for either “Made for iPod”/ “Works with iPhone”, and also customizing their printer with specific hardware/software, etc.)

Could someone please share their experiences?
