I have a HP WiFi printer. I downloaded the HP printer app and it allows me to print pics n docs but not emails and a variety of other thangs. I also tried to print in S Note and it says it can only print to samsung printer....WTH?! Does anyone know a simple way around this or good app that you can print anything you want just like on a cpu? Thanks in advance
 
I just printed a page straight from S-Note to my Epson printer, via the Epson iPrint app. If I did Share via PDF, it did not allow me to choose the Epson app. But when I did Share via JPG, it all worked fine.
 
I use Cloud Print on my Samsung GS3 phone and it's free. Had it on my Droid X also. I'm hoping it works when I get my Note. I have a laser printer and it's wired, not WiFi and it works. I think it has an option for email, but you have to use K9 Mail, which I don't. Check it out it might work for you.
 
I went through some issues when I bought a wifi printer and spelled everything out in a past thread on the galaxy note forum. Here's the whole message, I thought that would be easier than linking to the thread and I couldn't trust my memory as to how I finally got it to work.


TA DAA, I can print! But along the way I made a few "assumptions" that were wrong so I'll spell them out and hope it'll ease someone else's quest to print. Usually I research things to the nth degree but this time I was in too big a hurry. I looked at various wireless printers and found a Canon PIXMA MG3122. Canon had an app showing on their site. The box said print from android or iphone to this wireless printer. The manual that comes with the printer doesn't say beans about using a cell phone with it. Nothing was on the CD either. So I go to the site and using my phone, download the android app. Nice, glitzy app, for printing photos and pdf files ONLY. To print a document, must scan it in. It would print my memos as a photo. Couldn't print directly from polaris or quick office. I was very frustrated. Unpacking this printer meant removing a great multitude of pieces of plastic wrap, tape, cardboard, and Styrofoam. Taking it back seemed more of a challenge then the process to get it to print. Thanks to you folks, I knew it couldn't be impossible so I went looking and I found an app highly recommended on Cnet, PrinterShare. I installed it, and it's a lengthy process of detecting the printer, finding drivers (I was able to pick the one for my printer), etc. then you get to print a test page. To really print, you need to pay 12.95. They warn you not to figure paying for it will mean it'll work if the test page doesn't. My phone would tell me it printed, but my wonderful new printer sat there silently and the gremlins were laughing. I went to their website and found a list of supported printers. On that list, there's a thousand canon printers but NOT MINE. I tried their suggestion to clear the cache of their application when a test doesn't work. The gremlins still laughed. So, thinking that maybe the canon software did something to interfere, I uninstalled both Canon's printing app and the PrintShare and started over with PrintShare again. This time when it detected the printer and went looking for drivers, I picked the driver for the 2100 series since it was also on the website list of approved printers. VOILA, the gremlins ran away and my test page printed just fine. I happily paid the 12.95 to get the key for full use. I can print my word equivalent documents, gmail emails, my memos, pictures and pdf files. I hope this thread helps someone have the same great result without the frustration. I REALLY love my Note!!! Thanks everyone for the advice and encouragement!
 
Thanks so much yall! I will give each a try and see which works best for me. So far i absolutely the Note 10.1 =)
 
I'm Having a issue with size. I print out packing slips from Amazon and it uses PDF. When i print out using the note, the text is so tiny. Is there a way to have it print normal size?
