btfilter is used to send documents to Bluetooth enabled printers or print adapters for printing.

btfilter reads the document from standard input and sends the file to the supplied bluetooth device address. The file must be prepared beforehand - btfilter passes the file transparently to the device.

btfilter can be used indirectly in /etc/printcap - for an example, see my document Bluetooth Printing to HP DeskJet 3845.
