## What is Printing for iPhone?

Printing for iPhone enables easy printing of photos, web pages, and various document types.

"I have been trying to find an app to print from my iphone4s & out of the many I tried from iTunes this one is different, it actually works!! great to be able to have a free app to check you can print and only pay when you for the full app once you know it defiantely does as it says it will, highly recommend." - Labs42, May 13, 2012

"AWESOME APP. This app is great for using printers that can't be found with air print. It allows you to search for printers to add using wifi, or even manually enter a printer. 10 stars." - D, Dec 9, 2011

"FANTASTIC. This app did have an initial learning phase but everything is explained quite nicely in the help section. And once I understood the ropes, I can print almost everything I want ( haven't found anything yet which I haven't been able to print actually ). Highly recommended." - Ipad atheist turned devotee, Nov 23, 2011

"I can't stop using this app. Regards." - G, Sep 25, 2011

"WOW SWEET FOR NETWORK FILE PRINTING. Networked HP Photosmart 7960 on Jetdirect. I am able to print my MS documents, PDFs, etc from my file shares via Netportal ! Downloader works well for web page printing. Email attachment printing is sweet!" - T, Jul 22, 2011

DOES THIS APP SUPPORT MY PRINTER?
See the list of printer models this app supports at http://www.ndilitechnologies.com/help.html.


HOW DO I USE THIS APP TO PRINT FROM MY OTHER APPS?
Import the files from your other iPhone/iPad apps into this app, and then use this app to print them.
iPad/iPhone's iOS is designed such that each app you install is given its own storage space. There is no centralized (shared) storage space on your device. This means that this app's proprietary printing engine only works within this app. To say it another way: the iOS does not support/allow third party system-wide drivers. The iOS cannot use this app to print files within another app's storage space—for example, files stored in Pages, Numbers, Safari, Notes, Mail, etc. Therefore, files created in other apps must be imported into this app.


HOW DO I IMPORT FILES INTO THIS APP?
    • Use a web browser to transfer files between your computer and this app.
    • Use iTunes to upload files into this app.
    • Use a WebDAV server to transfer files.
    • Email a file to yourself. Then, open the Mail app, press and hold down the attachment until the "Open In..." menu appears. Select this app from the list of apps displayed.

### 1/5 — Printer not listed

*2025-08-10, version 5.1*

printer not available HP OfficeJet  Pro 9015

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht

*2021-11-03*

Bezahlt aber nichts funktioniert. Drucker Brother HL 2130 wird nicht unterstützt,hab einige andere ausprobiert aber nichts geht! Hatte ich das Geld sparen können, wenns eine Liste der unterstützten Geräte gibt !

### 5/5 — Does the job!

*2020-09-23, version 4.2*

Been using this for a couple of years. Obviously the ios sandboxing makes operating anything like this more complex, once you remember the routes, it works well. Cannot use the fancy printer stuff like double sided etc, but to print photos, PDFs and general stuff it does the job.

### 1/5 — Too Complex

*2019-07-24, version 4.2*

I am a simple grandmother and, I’m sorry, but this is just complex for me.  How do I get a refund?

### 1/5 — Dang

*2017-02-08, version 4.2*

I bought this program but it didn't work. Not helpful thing

### 1/5 — Printing for i phone app

*2016-07-10, version 4.1*

Didn't work with my Epson printer. Would not communicate with wireless printer.

### 2/5 — Ed frank

*2016-03-23, version 4.1*

Fravkk

### 4/5 — It WORKS

*2015-10-02, version 4.0*

As previous person stated, printout is a tiny bit fuzzy.  But its BETTER than another similar app I tested.

But I CAN print an attachment directly out of an email.  Im just happy it WORKED!  It didnt auto recognize my printer, but so what.  I logged into my router, got ip address, plugged it in and success.

Please work on getting the printout a bit clearer.  =)

### 1/5 — Do not buy this

*2015-09-08, version 4.0*

Big waist does not do what is says

### 1/5 — Garbage App

*2015-08-25, version 4.0*

Yes the app works.

Now for the gotchas

All printing is done from the app file system.  This means you will need to surf the web to find what you want to print.  You can not print email from iPhone.  You can copy an email content and paste to a document in the app file system.  All you get is the body of the mail as copy only captures the body.

The print comes out dull.  A little fuzzy.

Bottom line if you like play hacker to print sub par on a laser printer then this app is for you.

For me it is a rip off.
