Mobile Printing Applications for Android and iOS Devices

People nowadays relies heavily on mobile printing, which isn't surprising since most of us got a handy tablet or smartphone to use for on the go printing. Speaking of which, the advantage of printing from virtually anywhere was such a great option for almost everyone who uses a printer. Mobile printing applications and software are now on the hype, hence we shouldn't be outdated to what's trending in the print industry.

Let's try to name a few mobile print apps for those who are not familiar with them. So if by any chance you want to try it out, you know what app to use.

HP ePrint, Samsung Mobile Print, Epson Connect, and many more, these are just some of the common apps we can make use of for mobile printing purposes. Some of those typically work with Android-powered devices, while others are conditional to work for iOS devices. Well if you want an app specifically for iOS powered phones, tablets and the likes, you can try Collobos FingerPrint. It supports Apple AirPrint technology for cloud printing services through DropBox and Evernote. In addition, both DropBox and Evernote provides cloud storage services over the internet.

For those who want a universal app which can be used for iOS, Android, and even Blackberry devices, there's this one recommended app. PrinterOn, a business-oriented mobile print app that makes a printer accessible to any mobile device.

There's also the PrintShare app, print digital content directly from your WiFi enabled device to a nearby printer. Additionally, this app supports Google Cloud Print, as well as printing not only via WiFi, but also through Bluetooth and USB storage devices even without a PC.

Here's also a round up specifically for Apple iOS devices:
Print MagicHD, particularly suitable for Apple tablets or what we called iPads.
Printing Pro, a software focused on printing from iOS-powered tablets and smartphones directly to the printer via WiFi.
ToPrint, comes in free and full versions, the latter as usual allows better printing options, aside from the basics like printing messages,contacts, files and information from iOS phones and iPad.

Whilst there are more apps over the net that were not mentioned from this post, I'll try to gather more info about those and make a follow up post. Along with the aforementioned free and paid apps, tech giants in the print industry provide their own specific application and software available particularly for each brand. But always make it a habit to check your printer's consumables such as laser toner cartridges or ink cartridges, cause you might not enjoy mobile printing if your printer runs out of it.
