Iam having trouble connecting my thunderbolt to my printer. Is it an app(free) which will allow me to connect to my wireless printer? Or can i do it by wifi/bluebooth?

You have to do it through the actual app itself. First, go into the app settings and scan for your printer. If you wanna print from the web, you have to use the link on the app that says web print page, find what you wanna print, press your menu button and it should give you several options foe printing. If its a document, save it to you phone then use the saved document link. Same for photos, use the photo link. I had the same issue(I have a thunderbolt, as well) and just had to play around with of until o figured it out. Hopefully that helps you.

When you say "do it through the actual app itself," do you mean the wifi settings or a specific wifi printing app?

Thanks,

I'm doing this through the mobile hot spot function. Have that scan for your wireless printer and then your computer can find it. However I have not sent anything from the phone to the printer.
