Open a file in the app you want to print from. Pick settings, then look for a Print option. You may have to tap "More" if it isn't one of the first choices. The first time you use it it will prompt you to pick a printer. If you don't own a Samsung WiFi capable printer you're out of luck though. I've got a nice Canon printer on my network, but no printing to it with this tablet.
I use PrinterShare Premium, which isn't free ($12.95), but if you use Google Cloud printing then that will work with the free version of PrinterShare.
What if I have a
Printer with an ip address? Anyway to make that work?

Moving to Q&A
PrinterShare Premium is the way to go so far. It's about $13, but it works just fine for wifi printers.
I got printershare pro when it was free at amazon and it doesn't print to my canon pixma 620 (not the newest printer, but wifi). It prints, but not correctly.
Apologies for the late entry (I may need to start a new thread), but I have a kind of weird issue.
Just got a Samsung MV 1865 wireless printer. Works great on my Windows WiFi group. I can also print just fine from my older Galaxy 7" (no extra app installed on that one, just select Print and then let it find that Samsung printer on the same network). But, my 10.1 can't see that same printer. Any ideas?
Thanks.
EDIT: Disregard. I installed the Samsung printing app and somehow that forced the native print settings to see the Samsung printer on my network. At least I guess that's what happened.
I just installed "Samsung Mobile Print " from Android Market. I just printed to a wired Dell printer on my network. Should work fine with a wireless printer I would think.

Depending on which Dell Printer you have, it may very well have been manufactured by Samsung. For a period of time at least Sammy manufactured Dell Laser printers, so if you've got it to work with a Dell, there's a good chance it's really a sammy.
Printer Share app, the paid version, will not print documents created with mobile office apps-- see my conversation below--
Hello,
This happens when you use mobile office apps for creating your documents.
It should not happen with the documents created or saved with desktop
MS Office software.
There is a known workaround to this problem (besides modifying/saving
the mobile-created document with desktop MS Office). You can send this
document to Google Docs which converts documents upon upload.
Here is a detailed explanation of the workaround (under the heading
'When opening certain word documents I get various Docs Render
errors'): http://printershare.com/help-mobile-faq.sdf
Our apologies for the caused inconvenience.
We are planning to fix this issue in future updates.
Have a nice day

The built in printing capabilities was a pleasant surprise for me today. I've had my BB Flyer since July and never even thought about being able to print until today. I noticed that from the built in browser there was a "Print" menu option. I was even more surprised when it found my wireless Canon MX410 printer and actually printed the web page!
Is there any way of getting this print app from the flyer and copying it over to my Asus Transformers (which don't seem to have any built in printing functions)? I know, it's doubtful sense it only seems to be an option on the HTC built in apps like the web browser, polaris office, gallery, etc.. and not available from the standard google apps like Gmail.
don't know, but there is a app for that.
PrinterShare Mobile Print
was a free app of the day on Amazon but is not free now
I use Epson printers not Canon and Epson offers a print Android app that works with their wifi printers. Perhaps Canon offers something similar?

I'm looking for a solution to print from my Prime while at work. I have two different printers in my office (no network) and would like to be able to print from at least one of them. Is there a way to print directly from the Prime that I'm not aware of? The only solution I can think of is using PrinterShare and getting a bluetooth adapter like the BT-0260-v2 from premiertek.
Can someone else shine some light on the situation?
Thanks.
There is a way to cloud print using google Chrome. You need to be signed in on the computer connected to the printer thought.

There is an app called PrintBot that I use. Free version supports one printer. Works great for me.

And all main printer companies have developed Android app to print on their machine.. all in market.
The printers aren't hooked up to a network. I'm looking for a way to print directly from the Prime. Any other solutions or am I stuck for now? One is a fax machine that can scan and print as well (a Lexmark X5650) the other is a Dell laser printer that is hooked up to the office computer but I can disconnect that if needed.

If they're hooked up to computers with Google cloud print signed in I think that would work but if they're totally disconnected from a network or an online computer, perhaps bluetooth (if the printers had those features) may work. Never tried printing via bluetooth though but my really old Lexmark all-in-one could do it from my old Nokia n82.
Physically connecting the Prime to the printer won't work since the Prime isn't a true computer with drivers and other stuff to accommodate the printer.
If your printers have a print from SD card or flash drive feature then I suppose you can transfer the file straight from the Prime to one of those media first.
the best solution is cloud printing. You install chrome on your computer and make a gmail account. Once your signed in go to the Tool top right, and go to Options then Under the Hood then scroll down until you see Google Cloud Printing and click on Manage Print Settings. You should of been redirected to Google's Cloud Printing Manage area. You'll add a classic printer and thats it. As far as ive noticed this system will send the request to your gmail account, and your browser will send it to the printer when ever it can.
Works great! Only works on iphones if they buy a app. But for us its free its called Cloud Print. It's amazing, you can print anything and it works.

The only solution in that case, is to install a chroot Linux distro on the Prime and once running chrooted Linux you can install printers, at the condition that usb dock port accepts connection to a printer.
Search BT5 linux thread to have guidelines and howto for installing linux.
Is there a way to print directly from Prime+Dock, directly to a printer WITHOUT A COMPUTER.
Situation: Epson 960, webtv, and the Prime
When visiting my 95 year old mother, I sometimes want to print items. The only technology is her webtv. The printer will connect to webtv or the prime dock by USB cable.
I haven't found a "stand alone" printing app for the prime...All available seem to want a Wifi Printer, or wifi connection to the home network.
The only solution that I can think of would be to put whatever I wanted to print as an attachment to an email, then open it in WebTv, then print that way...
Anyone have any better suggestions?????
PLEASE!!!!!
Thanks,
Bob
There is an app for that. It's name is printershare.

From what I read, that printer needs either Wifi or Bluetooth capabilities.
Direct USB cable connection does not seem to be an option?
Printing from Prime
I've been using CloudPrint... requires a pc somewhere to have been setup with Cloudprint, but it works with my Galaxy Note and TF201... for work and home printers.

This app looks promising, however the free demo only prints a greyscale test page, which doesn't look great on my printer. The real app is quite expensive and I'd like to know how good it really is before I pay. Let me explain what I mean.
I found a Brother app which works with my printer. However, print quality is rubbish. It looks like it rasterizes web pages into medium-resolution graphics and sends this to the printer. The effect is quite horrible: fonts are fuzzy and text difficult to read. The test page from Printershare looked exactly the same.
So, how does Printershare deal with web pages and PDF documents? Does it do the same rasterizing trick, or does it send proper fonts to the printer and let it render prints properly.
Another problem for me is that Printershare does not have my Brother HL5250 driver, so I have to use a nearest hit...

I tried searching for this with no luck, but does anyone know where or how I can add drivers to the Flyer (rooted, with HC)? I have an HP wireless printer (4700 series) but am unable to print from the Notes app because the printer is not supported. Any assistance is appreciated.

I use PrinterShare for printing from all my mobile devices. Gives ability to print to remote printers or direct print to hardwired or wireless printers from about any app. Works well for me and the best thing I know of unless your printer has an Android app available.
Might check out Printbot as well. Not sure if it will work with your printer though.
Doesn't answer your original question, but if you are just trying to print info from Notes, why not just open Evernote on your home computer and print from there?

I have PrinterShare installed as well but didn't know I could print from the native Notes app with. Will have to give that a shot.

That was the issue: I wasn't near a computer at the time but was connected to a wireless printer.
Wish there was a way to support more printers in these apps.
