More info?)
Try going into the Bluetooth Control Panel, selecting the GIGABYTE device
from the "Devices" Tab. Hit Properties and then go to the "Services" Tab.
You should be able to select> Printing (HCRP) checkbox and hit apply. If you
don't see a Printing (HCRP) service then the gigabyte adapter probably
doesn't work with this device.
I'm still working on getting your device to reproduce the situation. It may
take a week or two since they are mainly items sold in the UK.
