Wireless printing

Wireless networks offer a safe, secure, and cost-effective alternative to traditional wired network connections. The HP LaserJet 1320nw printer has built-in wireless connectivity. For the other printer models, see 10/100 networking and wireless print servers for a list of available wireless print servers.

IEEE 802.11b/g standard

With wireless IEEE 802.11b/g compliant connectivity, the printers can be placed in the office or home and connected to a wireless network running Microsoft, Apple, NetWare, UNIX®, or Linux® network operating systems. This wireless technology provides a high-quality printing solution without the physical constraints of wiring. Peripherals can be conveniently placed in an office or home and can be easily moved without changing network cables.

Optional external HP Jetdirect 802.11b/g print servers are available for USB connections. See the documentation that came with the HP LaserJet 1320nw printer for more information.

Bluetooth

Bluetooth wireless technology is a low-power, short-range radio technology that can be used to wirelessly connect computers, printers, personal digital assistants, cell phones, and other devices.

Unlike infra-red technology, Bluetooth's reliance on radio signals means that devices do not have to be in the same room, office, or cubicle with an unobstructed line of sight in order to communicate. This wireless technology increases portability and efficiency within business network applications.

Bluetooth adapters are available for USB and parallel connections.
