### 2/5 — No colour

*2015-03-17, version 3.7*

Using an HP1515n, the printer is recognised but only prints in grey scale.

### 1/5 — Will not open

*2012-12-25, version 3.6*

Now that I paid for the app it will not open or function at all.

### 1/5 — Like all the rest .....

*2012-12-23, version 3.6*

...of these printing apps for the iPad, it needs network access & a computer which is completely silly. 

Will not work with a LAN set-up. Just shoots out blank pages on my HP Photosmart. Printer then states size is wrong (no way to adjust or compensate for this)....

Useless.

### 1/5 — Would love a refund for a complete waste of time, money, paper & ink!!!

*2012-12-05*

I will admit I was fooled by the ease of use of the trial app. So I plunked down my $5 after a little more research, including dismissing many reviews that didn't include much substance.  So here it goes.

The actual app forced my printer to default to 4x6 printing.  This caused all documents to print in landscape.  I had to save the settings on the printer after printing with each device!   I caught this after attempting to contact the support site and receiving the auto reply.  This morning I received a reply from "support", with the recommendation of... Wait for it... "You could try rotating the iPad into portrait mode prior to printing..."  REALLY!?!?!?!?  Your answer is spin the iPad???

Next, and more concerning for anyone who is going to be working on or printing a document.  This does not, let me repeat, this does NOT print documents, it prints a PICTURE of your document from within their program.  This means everything printed will have the grey border the app does.  So, if you try to type out a résumé you will not get that professional look you're going for.

All in all, shame on me.  I thought $5 would be money well spent and got burned by an app developer who thinks the answer is "spin  the iPad."

Don't be lured by the lower price, spend the extra cash on one of the better apps!

### 1/5 — GHR

*2012-12-02, version 3.4*

Don't waste your money. This app should be removed from Apple's site.

### 1/5 — Waste of Money

*2012-11-18, version 3.4*

Apple should not let people to waste their money on this application. Difficult to use, does not do what is promised, etc.

### 1/5 — Bait and Switch

*2012-11-17, version 3.4*

The test print app was easy and worked fine.  Bought the product and you have to work for NASA to figure out.  WASTE OF MONEY!

### 1/5 — Could not print

*2012-11-17, version 3.4*

It detected my brother printer on network but could not print any of the document. Test failed, fix it.

### 1/5 — Printing for iPad

*2012-11-05, version 3.4*

Disappointed as there were lots of good things promised for this app but did not deliver any for my Kodak printer even though it did actually find the model in a list. Good point ..... It was free to try?

### 1/5 — Detected printer but no printing

*2012-11-01, version 3.4*

The app identified the HP2600N on my network, but none of the print tests had any success. The app doesn't give any indication of what actions it is carrying out so it's hard to tell if it actually sent anything.

### 1/5 — Hard to believe they made it worse

*2012-10-30*

I figured I'd give this one last try.  Somehow, they seemed to have made this program worse than it already is.  It's very buggy, and stops operating very frequently.  I haven't been able to get this to work yet.

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2012-10-14, version 3.3*

So awkward to use. Horrible app.

### 3/5 — Ok

*2012-10-08*

Love the idea. Found my network printer immediately. But the test page kept printing continuous blank pages and some with symbols at bottom without stopping. If it had just printed the sample page, I might have bought and used it.

### 1/5 — Misleads

*2012-09-28, version 3.3*

Westing time and money and all papers

### 1/5 — Misleading!

*2012-09-22, version 3.3*

Downloading this you think you are downloading a printing app, not so, its only a printing test.
After the test you have to download the app for $4,99

Bad practices!

### 1/5 — Wouldn't print anything

*2012-08-27, version 3.3*

Wouldn't print anything. Would be nice if it let you know something isn't configured correctly.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2012-08-12, version 3.3*

Printed all paper in tray and then some, thanks for wasting my time. Gave it one star because it wouldn't post with none

### 1/5 — Trev Davey

*2012-08-11, version 3.3*

DCP - J315W Brother Printer
Found it in the test app printer appeared to be receiving data briefly but no printing took place.??

### 1/5 — Get lots of paper

*2012-08-08, version 3.3*

Printed endless pages of garbage that I could not stop

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Absolute rubbish

*2015-01-08, version 3.7*

Trying to get a refund. Complicated.
Can't print web pages.

### 1/5 — Printing for iPad,printer verificatio

*2014-12-16*

Didn't list my HP Photosmart C-309A.  Would not auto connect with the printer's Bluetooth.

### 1/5 — Be careful

*2014-03-26, version 3.7*

If you try this app, make sure you only have one sheet of paper in your printer feeder, it printed garbage on a whole stack of paper for me......

### 1/5 — App

*2014-03-21*

App is garbage, it did find my printers but I had to turn my printer off because it used up almost a whole pack of printer paper on jumbled up garbage that you can't read.

### 1/5 — Fuprint tu

*2014-02-17*

Waste of money!

### 1/5 — As it says, it is only a DEMO

*2013-12-21, version 3.7*

Don't bother to try if you do not intend to buy the paid version. It is a demo print of some test pages and that is it!

### 1/5 — Didn't Work for Me

*2013-08-12, version 3.6*

My Lexmark x6650 Wireless device isn't listed as a supported device for this app. Sigh...bummer!!

### 1/5 — PLAESE 😡😤

*2013-05-30, version 3.6*

PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS APP IT IS THE WORST APP EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😡😤😵😠😟😦😧😑👿

### 1/5 — Don't buy

*2013-02-22*

This app has extreme difficulty in locating a network printer. To print you actually need to print the doc created here using your network computer.
And for designer help, doesn't exist. Basically will direct you to the help screen, which is so little almost non-existent, or will blame outside sources.
Do not waste your time or money!

### 1/5 — Very disappointed...

*2013-02-11*

If by "import from other apps" they had truthfully stated Email files to yourself then open in this app, I wouldn't have purchased this.

If by "print" they had truthfully said, for very low quality pixelated prints, I wouldn't have made this purchase.

I could go on, but hopefully, by now you get the picture.  Save your money.

### 5/5 — Great

*2013-10-29*

Amazing app
Get it

### 5/5 — Great tool

*2012-06-26*

Did exactly what it said it would do.  Pulled up the list & my printer wasn't on it, so I saved $ by not buying app first!  Thanks!

### 5/5 — It does what it says

*2012-06-16*

I give this app 5 stars because it does exactly what it says it will do. 
I was able to discover my Brothers printer will NOT work with the app. It cost me NOTHING to find this out, but a few minuets of my time. My hat is off to these people for being straight up and giving us a means to check comparability before paying! Bravo.

### 5/5 — Does what it says

*2012-06-15*

This is an app made to save you money. If it works then that means that their paid apps will work with your printer.

### 5/5 — Works great

*2012-06-14, version 3.3*

Worked straight off with my network HP printer, no setup was needed!

### 5/5 — Verification only

*2011-06-20, version 1.1*

Please be aware, this software is just to test if your printer works with the paid version. This is FREE, those who have slated it and called it a scam. It's free......

### 5/5 — Happy it works

*2011-05-06, version 1.1*

This app worked fine, remember it's a 'free' app to see if your printer is comparable with the 'paid' app.
As I said above, I tested all three test pages and it worked fine, I'm going to buy the actual app now and will review that as well.
Just follow instructions, the list on the top right for printers was huge found mine typed the correct ip address and hey presto it connected. Happy.

### 5/5 — Works fine.....

*2011-03-21, version 1.1*

over the wifi network at work. Detected our 2 network printers. sent a test photo to one and a test web page print to the other. Both printed fine. Bear in mind this free app is just to verify it works.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2011-01-16, version 1.1*

I installed this app and printed a doc to my networked printer (HP C6200) in seconds with 2 finger taps on my iPad. That is a great app!!!

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2010-12-05*

Ok you have to get this app it worked on mine maybe u don't know how to use it idk but I luv it
