Wifi printing

Just noticed this on the tab. Pretty cool stuff

Can't find wifi printer on network

Apparently it only works with certain Samsung printers, but there's very little information about this.

Yes. From page 49 of the user's manual:
Print. Your device is compatible only with Samsung printers.

I have used Google Cloud Print. Once I got it set up, it has worked fine.

There is an app for HP printers too. If someone needs it, I can post it. Stupid HP updated the app to support their web printers and deprecated the wifi ones.

Printer Share from the Market works great for me. The first 20 pages are free, so there's nothing to lose.

Cloud print can be used with any printer that's airprint/eprint ready and can be set up with practically any printer as long as the printers connected to a computer with chrome installed

PrintBot from the market also seems to work OK for me (HP Wireless F4500)
Sends direct to the printer via WiFi, no need for computer to be on. (Need to be on the same WiFi network of course)
Limited number of prints/month on free version.
Havn't fully tried it yet but it found printer and sent a test page OK

Galaxy Note Printer

Has anyone found a printer that works with the Note?

I've tried my printer over wifi (brother MFC J825DW) and I can print pdf documents, photos, and even SCAN documents from my S2 using brother app in market...

The Note will work directly with some of the Samsung printers. Other printers seem to need paid for apps.

Samsung 2160N (Wireless) does not work as it does not recognize command from Note.

Print to a networked printer (wired)

Anyone know how to print to a brother mFC 420n?

CLOUD PRINT IN Chrome
There is two ways.. I have a j85something printer.. brother
The first way is to use the Brother printer app for android. It will find the printer . But only if the printer is connected to a router with wireless.
best way from android.
install google chrome..web browser on your pc that has the printer set up on.
from google chrome be sure you are logged into your same google account that is on your android device.
In Chrome go to settings (the wrench icon on the left)
then in the menu scroll down to settings.. GO ALL the way to bottom and click show advanced settings.Scroll down to google cloud print. Follow the instructions on how to set it up. Then i use CLOUDPRINT app from the android market ..
Good Luck... if you have any trouble just post back or pm me...

I use an app called printer share. It sees any printers on your network. Simple to use, set up, and I can print anything I want from my tablet. Its not free though....

I use this method, and it works good for me. Its uses your default printer settings to print.

Print Bot works for me but I do have a print server to connect to my three printers.

Tweaked does cloud printing require the computer to be on that the printer is connected to or can i connect to a WiFI printer directly?

thanks for the replies

Maybe because it's been doable for a long time? It's built in in the sense that any app set to receive the appropriate intents could communicate with a printer. Google Cloud Print does exactly this with Google's services, and other printing apps have been around for quite a while.
There isn't really a huge benefit towards making it a "system" function, especially on mobile. More services to run with little overall benefit.

Google print?

In stock android there is an option to print to a printer wireless if it connected to a pc. In samsung kitkat I can only find printing for hp and Samsung printers no Google cloud print. Did samsung remove it?
