I found this perfect portable photo printer on the web.
But it only have IrDA interface.
Do any one know Magician is compatiable to this printer?
How can I make my mini to be able to print through infra-red?
Thanks everyone
I've tested 2 soft for this purpose: HP Mobile Printing and KSE True Imprimer
One of this (I don't remember which one) can print only text (word, txt) and the other also images. I did it with an Irda Canon LaserJet and I worked perfect.
Now I don't have the printer anymore to make more testing.
Some photo printers are only compatible with photo cameras of the same company and I don't know if the Fujitsu is able to print other things than pictures.
Good Luck!
I've scan through results on the web, and sales opinions; it's for sure that can be used on a long listed of modern handsets(i.e. some are Symbian-based and some are properity laucher), most of them are SE and Nokia handsets.
I've also found some commerical software for WM2003se to enable photo IrDA printing, coz I'm not sure it will talk to the MP-100.
Hope someone have more experience on IrDA printing standard.
Thanks everyone ^^
I've scan through the Fijifilm website, it require infra-red device support IrOBEX profile
Does Magician support this standard in its infra-red port?
How to activate it?
Please help ^^
Thanks a lot

Just tried to beam a document to my HP laserjet 2100 printer using infa red but to no avail
any clues ?
I dont think you can just beam a file to a printer, you need a program that will send it to the printer in a printable format.
ok cruisin thanks
worth a go

Infrared printing with i-mate
I have no problems printing via infrared with a bulky hp laserjet 2200dtn (I go to my picure list or document list tap and hold and beam....) PROBLEM IS i CAN NOT SAY THE SAME FOR THE PORTABLE CANON bjc80. Can anyone offer a solution like say canon printer driver for pocket PC
a barcode scanner and a webcam... wouldn't that be hilarious?
For the first thing our PDA should pretend to be a USB keyboard and translate the photographed bar code into its numbers.
For the second thing our PDA should pretend to be a USB webcam and instantly stream each picture to the USB port.
You think it's impossible? I don't think so. Softick managed to have the PDA pretend a USB stick. Other pretended devices shouldn't be a problem then!
Chatty - I don't know anything about interfacing with the camera, but obviously from my SuperBright Magician screen adventures, I know that you can kind of control the camera programatically. From there, you could use a timer to snap pictures every X seconds, and use code to FTP them (using wifi), or RAPI them over to the desktop if that was what was required (using USB). On WM5 I believe that this will be significantly easier.
That's not going to give you video I guess. You might be able to look into container video formats to see if we can stream the video, deleting as we're going, so we just stream straight from the PPC to a non local source without taking up much local space. But I've got no idea if that's possible.
Converting the pic from a barcode: you'd have to write custom "ocr" type software I guess. I've never done that before.
Good luck though

do a search in the forum for camara api or stk
and find that htc is not much for sharing the interface to the camera
Rudegar - tell me about it! At least <WM5 I think the camera is very proprietary, but it can be arm twisted into taking snaps programmatically.

direct show / camera
may I suggest to have a look at CameraCapture sample in msvc-8.0
Any code to get access to a pixel pointer is welcome
I want to use xda as webcam under Linux...
Barcode reader is great, too

I know this software works to 'stream' the video from the camera to the desktop. I haven't tested it as a webcam, maybe it does work (?)

any one tried that app yet?

If you mean XDA-II or XDA-III, then the ADCM
camera module is not a problem, there is
a linux driver for it. The problem is the
undocumented ATI 3200 video capture port,
where the camera is connected.
It will be much easier on Magician or Universal,
where the builtin PXA27x camera
interface is used.
Stockholm, August 21 2006.
Dear Forum:
We have a C# application running on older Smartphone models
(MS Windows 2003SE for Smartphone) where both WM5.0 and PDAs
are "overkill".
The Smartphone gets input data from a barcode scanner via
bluetooth (SPP serial profile), forwards the data via GPRS to
a webserver which validates & replies with a beep + ascii-text.
Now, at the end of a transaction, we need to send ascii-text
not to the Smartphone display but rather to a portable printer
at the remote location - preferably also pushed out from the
Smartphone via bluetooth to the mobile printer.
The REAL snag is that 99% of the market only use PDAs so the
hardware manufacturers themselves have no drivers which can
be used on Win 2003SE Smartphone OS (only PPC/WinCE or WM5.0)
and consequently we need to find a workaround to solve this.
[A] Using FieldSoftware's SmartphonePrint which does allow
for bluetooth printing to some models, but it only can print
PIM elements unfortunately.
In that case, we thought of using the Smartphone PIM task
+ Notes attached to a Task, as the text to print, but this
mean we must create a Task+Notes on-the-fly programmatically
deleting any previous ones in the process, AND launch the
3rd-party SmartphonePrint sequence without user interaction!!
Does anyone now how this could be done simply?
Else, has anyone seen any other Smartphone 2003 print
utility from "way back when" ??
[C] Better yet, would anyone knows of any usable drivers?!?
so we indeed could integrate the printing to our C# application
(deployed from MS Visual Studio 2005 Professional), and bypass
the need for a 3rd-party software, which is harder to control
AND which would lead to resorting to end-user action...
Grateful for any suggestions, albeit in priority C > B > A !
Brgds,
/Per Hagman
==============================================================
PS-1:
There are two-three well-known 3rd-party suppliers of standard
software for printing from an older Smartphone such as Qtek8080
or imate SP3 - aka SPV/Xphone/SDA/SMT5600 etc, namely:
FieldSoftware -- www.fieldsoftware.com/smartphoneprintfull.htm
JetCet -- www.westtek.com/smartphone/jetcet (only IrDA!)
PrintBoy -- www.bachmannsoftware.com/pbce.htm (only MS Mobile 5.0?)
Although articles, forums etc. indicate that PrintBoy works on
both PDA and Smartphones, its CAB-file doesn't install on our
MS Win 2003SE Smartphone...
Repligo 2.0 for Smartphones looks like another method, but we
will have to doublecheck if the HP printing is possible for
the portable printers that are available... ???
www.cerience.com/products/smp/index.htm
www.cerience.com/docs/smp/docs/index.htm#Printing
There are a number of small portable mobile printers available
on the market, many conveniently eqipped with a bluetooth
interface -- these printers are ok for field-service printing
For a visual near-complete listing, see again:
www.fieldsoftware.com/PrintersSupported.htm
PS-2:
There is also ActivePrint for PDA printing while docked, and
it might work for Smartphones. However, it doen't really apply
for printing at remote locations (or in a delivery truck) using
small mobile printers,,,
www.activeprint.pocketwatchsoftware.com/news/2006.04.04.htm
Finally at www.print4mobile.com/Engine.htm we found a system
for printing more sophisticated database-driven report prints
which is a clear overkill for us at this stage, and still we
cannot see how they would handle the lacking mobile printer drivers...
Note:
HP has discontinued its Win Smartphone 2003SE package in late 2005:

HI,
With my device, see below, I wish to print to a printer. A4
I wish to do this via blue tooth connection.
Please advise..
- Do I need software to do this on the device for Wm5 ? If so who provides this ?
- Can you recommend a nice compact ( small ) printer brand or model that will do this for me. One I can take with me on travel and plug into a wall.
Also it would be good if the printer has USB from device to printer as well as a back up.
Please advise thanks
Well after much frustration this is my story. I wish to print from device directly to printer formated MS Office documents rec'd by email attachments.
Firstly...
Printers choice >> ip90 Canon or the HP Deskjet 460wbt
I found this link say HP 460 performs better and longer.
http://www.hp.com/sbso/expert/competitive_460_vs_canon_ip90.pdf
Canon has a high demand on ink, and a lower dpi for text printing. What is more important you need software for device that supports the print and works.
Both www.amazon.com and www.cnet.com say ip90 is a better printer, but this is for notebooks and not PPC.
I purchased the HP Deskjet 460 with BT device. Set up on Com8 port for bluetooth, they dont tell you this.
Secondly, software selections
PrintBoy >> www.bachmannsoftware.com
ClearVue Suite ( Full version ) >> www.westtek.com
Testing printing on rec'd email word doc attachments with plenty of neat formats and graphics.
Thirdly my testing
PrintBoy
Did not print the word doc at all < I found out the reason why, as PrintBoy does not support print tables on a word doc, so PrintBoy is not 100% capable of printing word docs > , but it did print stuff that was very plain like text files. It has documentation to say the HP printer has been tested and confirmed to work. ip90 print not so confident. see here printer matrix for printboy here >> http://www.bachmannsoftware.com/PrinterMatrixWEB.pdf
ClearVue Suite prints native MS office files ( xls, doc, ppt) not WM5 pocket word or doc files. And it prints them very well. Prints them from email and device ok. But this software will not print plain text files. So you need both if you want full print functionality.
I did not consider ActivePrint as I wanted to print directly from device to printer without the need for a desktop pc. I am still looking at PIEprint and others ( ie http://www.fieldsoftware.com/default.htm ).
Hope this helps !
I have a WM5 device (Mitac Mio a701). I just pair it w/ bt printer (an hp 450 deskjet w/ the compact flash BT card) and i can just print, no need for extra software. It's been a while, but you either select print, or send the file.
Regards,
Jason
Has anyone tried printing directly from the Galaxy Note to a Samsung WI-FI printer using the Samsung Mobile Print application for I need to print aircraft boarding passes and emails? If so, which Samsung model printer did you use?
Many Thanks

Thanks for your reply. But I thought you needed to have an Internet connection to use Printer Share. Can you print directly to the HP LaserJet 1200 printer from the Galaxy Note without involving networking?

I have the same printer. Is yours networked?
No need for internet connection, works via wifi, with usb connected and shared on Windows 7 (computer and Note connected in the same router). Should work with all network shared printers.

Thanks for more information. However, I want to print directly from the Note to a printer with no other hardware involved. That is why I am looking at the Samsung solution, but I would like to hear from anyone who has managed it before I buy a Samsung wireless printer.
I have a Wifi printer: EPSON Stylus Office BX30FW.
This weekend a friend tested to print on it under ANDROID (It was not a Note) and It works!
There is a free app from EPSON . It works with Ios and Android. Sorry, I can't remember the name but you can browse it if interested.
Epson Brother and HP all have apps. Check to make sure your printer is supported. HP seems to do the most.

Thanks for your useful reply. I've checked the Android Market and there is an Epson Application which supports a wide range of Epson printers and gets good review scores.
There is an app for Samsung as well: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sec.print.mobileprint&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zZWMucHJpbnQubW9iaWxlcHJpbnQiXQ..
"Samsung MobilePrint is a free application which enables to print photos, documents and web pages directly from your smartphone and tablet. The application also enables scanning document to your mobile device directly."
It seems to support a lot of Samsung printers.
Printing with Galaxy Note
I think what the OP is referring to is being able to print directly from the s memo or s note app... without having to export.
You can select print from the menu within s note/memo however it seems to only see Samsung printers.
Surely someone is working on a hack for this so we can print from any WiFi printer?
Thanks in Advance,
Dan.
Depending on your printer manufacturer they may have a standalone app. However I use Cloud Print now through Google which allows me to print anything from my phone to home printer without a pc connected

Epson or HP
Hello, I have a Mac, a PC, iPad and Galaxy Note. I am considering to buy a AIO multi-function printer from Epson or HP. Which brand is better supported in terms of compatibility with the Galaxy Note? Ideally, I want to be able to scan directly from the AIO device to the Note and print directly from the Note to the printer. The ability to print duplex and fax is a plus.

Good question, I have a A910g HP also known as 8500A plus, but never tried what you are asking for.
I will test the applications on play store during this weekend, and I will let you know if I am able to preform what you have asked for.
As for Epson printers you will have to ask someone else

I have a Brother AIO that has a great app that can do what you want. Or look for a Google Print enabled printer (HP makes some) and use the app I linked above Cloud Print.
Brother solution requires being on the same network. Cloud Print does not require being on the same network. Basically Google Print enabled printers have a built in print server
I am in the print industry and sell the Kyocera brand. Kyocera also has a fantastic app for both Android and iOS
I do print quite a few docs from my note.
I use printer share app which was free longtime ago in amazon app store. One of the must have and best app in its category.
Even at times when my pc/mac fails to see my printer, this works well.
Ps: I have brother hl- 2270dw.
@Galaxy Note™…
Resurrecting this thread to share my experience with the Samsung app which I used to print to a CLP- 320 (a Samsung laser printer) which is shared on a Linux machine. I never managed to get it to see the samba share but I was rather surprised to see that it supported IPP which was readily recognised.
Unfortunately the printed document mangled every non ASCII character (and I'm not too sure about the fonts but those are always complicated to handle in office documents). The charset problem however came as a bit of a surprise. I thought those things were behind us nowadays and that a 16 bit charset was the norm...
Anyway I'm now looking for a new printing mechanism. I'll look into Google's cloud print thingy.
-- Sent from my phone using technological wizardry with the help of some kind of app
Epson told me that their app supports the Galaxy Note. According to them, we can scan and print.
Has anyone tried the app PrintBot?
I have a Samsung printer and use it to print directly from my Note. Both from the special printer app and the Stock browser. Both works really well!
