Google Cloud Print

Don't know if anyone knows about this but it's fantastic, I can print from my Xoom straight to my printer via desktop pc
This is very flexible, the app is called cloud print and you need google chrome, I can now print my reports written on ThinkFree from Chrome,
fantastic!!

It works natively with any HP network printer (I have one) and you can also print straight from Google docs (drive). Really nice to have, but I haven't had a need for it yet.

Since my MacBook went to sh*t I have been limited to my Xoom for doing everything and let me say that Cloud Print has saved my life.
I got a great new job, went through the whole process from cover letter and resume to interview and everything just using the Xoom, Google Docs and Cloud Print.
It works VERY well!

Is it this one? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pauloslf.cloudprint
(Just that it's not "owned" by Google, so I don't want to give that much permission to an app from a random).
Cheers.

It is built into Google Docs. Choose the web view of your document to get to the print option. Make sure you have set your printer up.
You don't need an app. This is not Apple.

Can this get any better? I think not.

I think I am in heaven... This phone, pardon the pun, is truly Epic..
Today solves my last issue I have had, printing from my phone, and Google now allows me to do this with ease.
I think I could actually go without my laptop now. Life is good. Thank you CM9 team, thank you Google.:good:

What sort of printer do you have? I want to see Cloud Print hacked onto DD-WRT, which would enable a lot of people to easily print from any Android device, with almost any printer. My AP is my print server.

How do you print from it? I had no idea that was even possible.

I am using Printer share from the market, It was free a couple months ago from the Amazon app store. But what makes it complete is the Google printing part.
I'm using several printers at work that are on the network. At home I am using my Epson Wi-Fi printer. Still it is amazing.

On another note, I don't think my phone has ever looked better either.

that big gaudy sense clock ruins it! jk.

To add to the completeness.. there was also just released a Scan to Phone app, that is supposed to allow you to scan directly from your scanner to your phone
A trial version is available, that allows 10 scans to verify if your scanner works
Accusoft USB Scanner - Trial

i have a program called Camscanner that works quite well for that. Pretty much an office in my hand. :laugh:

Got Print Share and Camscanner...to really be complete you need Officesuite Pro! I've tried Quickoffice and Documents to Go and OfficeSuite really is the best IMO.

Yeah, I should of added I have that too. When I am setting in a meeting and can go back through emails while I am sitting there, and print it out, it is pretty awesome.

USB connect to printer?

As above really, my mum is looking at getting a nexus 7 and using it to type simple letters and print emails instead of using her pc.
Will the nexus 7 be able to connect to a non network, standard USB printer using some form of adapter?

The Nexus 7 doesn't have a USB port but if it does support USB host then you can get external hardware for that

its iffy,if the printer supports print bridge it might work

I have a printer that connects to the router, and the whole network can use it wirelessly.
My phone can use it by "emailing" it to the printer, so the N7 should be able to as well. I hope anyway.
Was only like 50 bucks at walmart I think.

There is printing app from a Googler in the Play Store. Just make sure the printer is connected to a google account & you can print to that.

Maybe Google cloud printing would work here. I never tried it with an Android device, but it seems like it might be a good option for her. Set up the Chrome browser, printer and Cloud printing up on the PC and she should be able to print from the tablet with compatible apps. I just don't know what Android apps are compatible with Google cloud printing.

Thanks for the help so far. I will put the options to her.

Get a wireless Epson printer and connect it to your wifi network. Download the Epson iprint app, and voila! That's how I print from my phone. But

Brother also has an app for printing over the network. You can also scan to your phone if your printer has this function.

How the heck do I print?

Ok so I just got a new printer and I connected it to my wi-fi and all is working fine. I was able to detect it and print with it on all of my computers and I all my iOS devices detected straight away and I was able to print but I can't for the life of me figure it out on my N4. What am I missing?

That depends on your printer and the right app to do so. Did you read the manual if Android phones can be use to connect wirelessly to print documents?
There are apps on the Play Store that allows you to connect to your printer if it's compatible with each other.
Like this for instance:

I can't just print from any app as long I'm on the same wifi as a part of the share options like in iOS?
I did register the printer with Google Cloud Print but still don't see print options in any of my apps, not even the stock ones...

Unfortunately, it can't be done on Android because it doesn't have that feature like iOS.

Well that stinks. Thanks for the info mate.

No it doesn't. You just need an app to pass the document to the printer. Lots of things aren't built in native because it would bog down the firmware. You think people complain about app being bloat??? Imagine what would happen if they added junk code 80% of people never use....

No the problem is Apple They've taken simple stuff and made it their own so when you buy a printer with AirPrint it only works with Apple devices.
My HP LaserJet at work can print from any wireless device because it uses WIFI Direct (what AirPrint was originally but then Apple changed it and then patented it and called it their own).
When you buy stuff designed to work with Apple products they can generally only work with Apple stuff (well mobile iOS stuff I mean, obviously not desktops and laptops which can work with anything with the right drivers )

Try this.

Works like a champ over here, and Google drive can print as well of you set it up right.

Any other physicians use this?

Just got this phone 1.5 days ago...still getting used to the size...(see other thread).
But I was wondering- Any other physicians using this phone? Any killer apps/uses you've discovered using s-pen or otherwise? (besides the standard Epocrates, Uptodate, etc.)

Amion/doximity are pretty good. Citrix also has a decent app that is good for remote access assuming that your hospital has it set up.

Thanks! I forgot about Citrix. I had it set up on my Nexus 7 but finger input was a bit difficult. Perhaps stylus input will be better....

Takes up my entire left front white coat pocket but I'm loving it, really only use epocrates for it thus far

Hopsital has EPIC EMR via Citrix receiver. Can place/sign orders, write/sign notes, view labs PACS pretty much all EPIC features. Use Pocket Cloud to access office EMR and PACS via remote desktop. Use in OR to access office notes and XRays.

Good to hear. My hospital will be transitioning to epic in a few months. Seems like the note 3 let's you access most everything in epic?

Everything, as long as hospital sets up access properly. Citrix receiver logs onto hospital server, and starts a windows virtual machine running EPIC. You are now remotely driving EPIC with your Note 3. Pince/zoom and the S-Pen are useful to navigate in EPIC. If hospital gets Haiku app (mobile EPIC viewer), it is useful as viewer only. I do not use Haiku, because it does not allow you to write/sign oders or notes.
Also the Note 3 camera is outstanding for take intra-op and clinical photos, that can be placed in EPIC. IT at our hospital was did not think images could be inserted into EPIC progress notes. MD in Peds ICU figured it out.
