Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Printer at Free against PrintCentral Pro's $4.99. Printer also leads on ratings volume (2.8K vs 187). PrintCentral Pro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). On rating, review sentiment, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
