It works fine.......2007-09-11

This device works as expected. I think Canon should have included bluetooth with the iP90v printer that I bought, but hey, they've got to make money too.

Just like other reviewers have stated, there is no documentation on how to insert it into the printer. I had to do research on Canon's site to find out how. But basically it goes inside a slot inside the front, left side of the printer (if the printer is facing you). You might need to open the top cover of the printer to ensure it's properly inserted.

Good luck!

I am very satisfied with this adapter. Works great. A little slow at a distance, but that is understandable.

Installing BU-10 Bluetooth adapter with Canon Pixma iP90v on Vista.......2007-06-15

The Canon i80, Pixma iP90, and now (despite its cost) the new Pixma iP90v series of mobile high-quality fast inkjet (color photo) printers are an excellent investment for travelers (we paid US$230 in all in June 07, including S&H, on eBay for a practically new iP90v with 28 months left on an extended warranty from Best Buy). Though offering plug-and-play use with a USB connection, the optional and rather expensive Canon BU-10 Bluetooth adapter is a better solution, especially if the printer is going to be shared among several computers (we paid $67.30 in all for a brand new but open-box item online). The following blog describes how I resolved problems with installing the BU-10 on (our 2) Vista (laptops).

The instructions below apply primarily to the new Vista-compatible Pixma iP90v, but should be mostly applicable also to the earlier Pixma iP90, for which you can download the Vista drivers from the Canon site. The iP90v is essentially the same internally as the iP90 and will show up in your Printers panel and in other Vista (driver, etc.) notifications simply as the iP90. What follows may apply at least in part for other Canon printers, like the i80, which are now certified Vista-compatible, and on Windows XP SP 2.

Physically installing the BU-10 adapter into the printer:

* Illustrated steps online at Canon for installing BU-10 along with its 'cover' on the i80 Bubble Jet

* Procedure is similar for the Pixma iP90v but attaching the small 'cover' is superfluous for this model

How to install the Pixma iP90v on your computer for Bluetooth (wireless) printing (see also):

1) Install the printer first using the wired USB connection and ensure that it's printing correctly.

2) Disconnect the USB cord and ensure that your Bluetooth radio (built-in or added USB transceiver) is on.

3) Click on Printers in the Control Panel, then click "Add a printer" on the menu at the top

4) Click on "Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer" in the "Add Printer" dialog box.

5) If the Canon printer does not show up, click on "Stop" then on "The printer that I want is not listed"

6) Choose "Add a Bluetooth printer" (the option button at the bottom) and click on Next

7) Select the Canon printer when it shows up in the Search window (might have to retry a couple of times)

8) When you complete the steps, the printer is installed (2 items are added by the installation routine)

What you should not do and why:

Do not use the Bluetooth Devices panel in the Control Panel to add the printer (as you would have done for other devices such as phones, PDAs, headsets, GPS, etc.). If you do so , Vista will create a (superfluous) COM port for the printer, add a number of other items in its installation routine, and--worst of all--search in vain everywhere (including through Windows Update) for a (missing driver for a) Bluetooth Peripheral Device. This is a specifically Vista (as opposed to Windows XP) issue that has been reported in the forums by others using a variety of other (than printer) Bluetooth-enabled devices.

This error will not stop you from printing wirelessly to the printer. But you'll then be bothered, each time you restart the computer or log back in, by a Vista notification to search again for this device, ask you again later, or not to show this message again for this device ("your device will not function until you install driver software"). Moreover, if you are using a (Microsoft Wireless) transceiver (for Bluetooth) to provide such functionality on your computer, Vista will create a new instance of the Bluetooth printer in your Printers panel and increment its assigned COM port number by 1. The existing Bluetooth entry will be retained but labeled as being offline (obliging you to delete the latter). This behavior has been reproduced and confirmed by Canon support with whom I've been cooperating via email from 11-15 June to troubleshoot and resolve the iP90v Bluetooth installation routine on Vista.

Using the Add Printer routine, on the other hand, does not a create a COM port entry for the printer. Moreover, the installation routine only adds 2 items: 1) ??? and 2) iP90 printer driver. So you'll not be repeatedly bothered by the Bluetooth Peripheral Device notification described above. Nor by the creation of additional COM ports and printer instances each time you reinsert the USB transceiver.

I've advised Canon support to provide clear instructions, including the pertinent details from above, for installing the BU-10 Bluetooth adapter both physically on the printer (not all obvious...) and also by way of configuring the Vista computer to recognize it correctly. There is nothing in the computer manual nor in the boxed BU-10 package (which included a superfluous USB cable but not even a quick-start sheet of paper). Neither do they seem available online on the relevant product pages at the Canon site. However, Canon's email support has stuck with me patiently all the way through the troubleshooting procedures.

The Pixma iP90/90v seems to pack a lot of punch into a highly compact portable format. If you're frequently on the road, it's an investment you probably won't regret.

PS. I have a more complete version, with useful hyperlinks, at my computer blog. The best way to find it is to search for "Sunthar Visuvalingam - Pixma iP90/90v Bluetooth printer on Vista" on Google (as Amazon doesn't allow hyperlinks in reviews).

Canon BU-10.......2007-05-20

Purchased product from a company on the East Coast. Packaged arrived within five days and was as advertised. Installed into Canon iP-90v portable printer in a 15 seconds. Was up and running wireless printing within five minutes. Great product, easy install and quick bluetooth connect. I highly recommend.

Very Good.......2005-09-21

I found the AUDIOVOX CD BOOM BOX with radio to be a very good value. I just needed a small, portable cd player. This one does a good job and has good sound. I had, however, hoped to get one of this quality for a little less money, but I am pleased with it.

never knew Boomboxes could blow up with smoke, odor/dead!.......2004-12-06

don't buy this awful device! (you get what you pay for!) literally, within 30 minutes of regular cd, then radio play, it blew up with dimming the lights in the room, a distinctive "pop" sound...a tiny plume of smoke... and an offensive odor!...then dead silence, no lights for c/d tracks...no radio sound! ...I am SOOO glad i gave it as an EARLY Christmas present.... one day after opening, i was Thank GOD, able to return it to amazon/target at no charge.... we'll see how long the refund takes to be credited!

Product Description

The DM603 S2 is the entry floor standing speaker in the 600 Series 2. The speaker comes into its own as a front speaker in larger Home Cinema installations and, as with any model in the range, it is a superb monitor for 2-channel audio. The 2?-way system uses a second bass-only driver to supplement the output of the upper bass/midrange driver in the lowest octaves. This arrangement improves system power handling and reduces demands on the bass/midrange driver, which in turn improves midrange clarity. Having only the upper cone driver operating in the midrange preserves good dispersion in the vertical plane. Each of the two drivers operates in its own isolated chamber, the upper one being ported to the rear of the cabinet.

Customer Reviews:

Floorstanding speaker, not bookshelf.......1999-12-16

The DM 603 S2 is the first floor-standing speaker in the 600 series. It's a good speaker, though, with a reasonably decent low-end (although I'd add a sub to this speaker if it's being used in a home theater), and a fantastic tweeter and midrange that's worth auditioning if you can get a chance.

Very loud, not very effective.......2003-05-31

This fan is very, very loud, and didn't move nearly as much air as the fan it replaced. Definatly don't buy this for a bedroom PC.

The loudest fan.......2002-09-25

I installed this fan on my new computer. It's 10 times louder than the one on my old computer (Dell). I use my computer more than 10 hours a day and this fan really drives me nuts.

Quiet easy to install.......2007-05-06

I use ANTEC computer cases, and these just snap in and you plug into a 4 pin power cord and you are done. Most of my noisy computers needed fans replaced. In the old days I had noisy HDs, and that meant I could lose my data.

I have replaced fans that were screwed in and needed to be soldered. This is a snap!!

CompUSA delivered my Antec 2X B Bearing 80MM Clear PC Fan here less than 2 days after ordering it...even during the Christmas Rush!!! I surely didn't expect it that fast!

My apologies on the tardiness of this review of your great service especially for a product that was difficult to find as I'm very particular...& your price was great as well!!!

Thanks CompUSA!
