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 anybody managed to get the Jetcet Print program to work with an epson SX515w printer? if so which driver did you use as this model isnt listed, i can get a test page to print but when i try and print a file the paper doesnt eject from the printer.
I have this printer too so had a little fiddle around with JetCet. The best I could do was to get it to spit out reams upon reams of paper. So sorry not much help there.
SX515W
If you choose the Epson Stylus DX8400 driver it works beautifully, though at a much slower speed than the printer is capable of...

I thought Sprint had removed it on the 6.5 upgrade, but they just had moved it into the Tools option on the start menu. It is in there and hiding.
A word of advice. Even though a small number of printers are listed, most printers have "emulations" that you can use. For example, I have a Brother laser and it has a HP LaserJet emulation. You can't use all the features but it prints simple things like word docs and emails.
Ok thanks a lot
I'm going to try it.
bye
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 that useful information. It is good to know that other printer manufacturers are supporting Android.

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.

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!

Hello communnity,
Id like you to ask about a widget or application for printing via KF.
Im using a lot PDFs and in need to print them.
My Multi-functional device is a HP 8500 connected to my router.
I can use it from my notebook via Wlan.
So my question is whether you know any way to use it on my KF too.
Im very curious about your answers.
Thanks
a simple search on the market (with pc) gave some interesting apps (PrinterShare™ Mobile Print)
also one for hp printers (HP ePrint Home & Biz)
Printer Share app

I have used the Printer Share (paid) app on my Android devices. It works pretty well but a few documents will not be formatted properly.
I have not used it on my Fire yet but I am pretty certain that if the Market allows you to install it (does not complain that it is not supported by your device), then it will work on the Fire.
I do HIGHLY recommend the paid version because of the restrictions on the free version.

I use an app called Cloud print, which uses googles cloud printing service. Once you have it running, you can simply share the document with the app.
Also, if you run HP's eprint, you can simply send the pdf as an email to your hpeprint address.
