In this blog, we will go over the best ways to print from your smartphone. Whether you have an iPhone or an Android device, we will have you printing from your phone in no time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>AirPrint for Apple<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of Apple&#8217;s remarkable features is AirPrint, which lets you print documents directly from your device. Mobile printing can be done with ease; just follow the steps below.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Open the app of the printer that you wish to print from (Ex: HP, Epson, Brother).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap the &#8220;Share&#8221; or &#8220;Actions&#8221; buttons within the app to find and tap the &#8220;Print&#8221; option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap &#8220;No Printer Selected&#8221; -&gt; choose an AirPrint-enabled printer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose the number of copies or other options, such as which specific page(s) you want to print.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap &#8220;Print.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chrome for Android<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Android devices, printing your documents is simple and easy and can be done through the Chrome app. To print from your phone, add a printer that can get data with WiFi or a mobile network.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>On your Android device, open the Chrome app.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open the picture, file, or document you want to print.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At the top right, tap &#8220;More&#8221; -&gt; &#8220;Share&#8221; -&gt; &#8220;Print.&#8221;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At the top, select a printer and tap the &#8220;Down&#8221; arrow to change any print settings.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap &#8220;Print.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Manufacturer\u2019s App For Android and Apple<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using a Manufacturers App is another method of printing documents off your phone. This may be a Canon, HP, Epson, Brother, Lexmark printer, or a different brand. Depending on who made the printer you are using, they have an app allowing you to print on your device. Because there are so many different brands to print from, we recommend going to the app for specific instructions when it comes to printing from their app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We at Consumer Cellular know the importance of keeping up with all the necessities of life, and how important it is to keep essential documents, photos and other printed items with you.
