If you’re an Android newcomer, printing probably seems like a no brainer: click a menu, tap a command. But if you’re a longtime Android user, you probably remember how printing from your mobile got its start. The good news is it’s easier than ever to print from your Android device.

HP printers come with proprietary software designed to connect any mobile device to your printer effortlessly. The setup process is straight forward as well, as is outlined in this convenient setup HP Printer Support Number tutorial:

Printing on Android used to mean installing the janky Google Cloud Print app, then “sharing” whatever it is you’re trying to print with that app. It was a really roundabout and not-at-all-intuitive way to go about printing things from mobile. It just didn’t make sense.

Like I said earlier, Cloud Print is now part of the OS. In the past, this app is where you’d go to find and manage printers, but since it’s no longer a standalone product, all that stuff is now tucked away neatly in the Settings menu.

To check your printer situation, first pull down the notification shade and hit the cog icon. On some devices, like anything running stock Android, you may need to pull it twice. This will get you into the Settings menu.

4. Setup:-

1. Depending on what you select, Printer Share will prompt you to navigate to the specific item to print. If the document has multiple pages, you can choose the pages to print. When you've made your selection, click the big Print button.
2. Launch the PrinterShare app on the Android phone. Make sure that the computer is turned on, Wi-Fi is enabled, and the printer is turned on.Download PrinterShare for Android using your computer (Mac or PC). Connect your Android phone to the computer and run the Printer Share installer. Through the computer side of the program, select which printer to make available to the Android phone.
3. In the Printer Share app, select the icon for the type of file that you want to print. You can print pictures, Web pages, calendar entries, contacts, messages, your call log, Google Docs files, or PDF files.

Android Mobile Setup:-

Google Cloud Print comes preinstalled on most Android devices, but you can download it manually.

1. Once you have Google Cloud Print, open the app you're printing from and tap the three dots that indicate more options (usually in the upper right corner) to find and select the Print option.
2. Identify or add a printer compatible with your device that's on the same shared Wi-Fi network.
3. Once the printer is added, printing from your Android device should be self-explanatory.

IOS Mobile Setup:-

Apple's built-in AirPrint feature makes it easy to print directly from any iPhone or iPad without downloading additional drivers.

1. You can only use AirPrint with printers compatible with Apple's technology. Check this list to make sure your printer is AirPrint-enabled.
2. Make sure your phone and your printer are on the same Wi-Fi network.
3. Next, open the app you want to print from and find the print option, which may be under Share, Print or Other Options. Tap Print or the printer icon and select Choose an AirPrint-enabled printer.
4. You should be able to easily identify and select the printer of your choice (or add a new printer), specify your printing needs (number of copies, etc.) and send your job to the chosen printer.

If you're still having trouble using AirPrint, make sure you're running the latest version of iOS and that the app you're printing from doesn't have any updates available.

How to “Print” to PDF

Sometimes you may not need an actual paper copy of something, but you want a universally accepted document that will just work wherever you need it. For that kind of thing, PDFs are great. And printing to PDF is stupid-easy on Android.

Select the print option outlined in the above section, then tap the drop-down menu with all of your available printer options. There should be at least a couple of options for saving the file as a PDF: “Save as PDF,” which saves the file locally to the Android device, and “Save to Google Drive” which will save the PDF to your Google Drive.

Okay, so now that you know how to add and manage printers, let’s talk about actually printing something from your phone. Like I said earlier, only some apps support printing. Pretty much any office-based applications, like Word, Docs, Excel, Spreadsheets, Gmail, etc. will work for you, but Google’s Photos app also supports printing.

The thing is, it’s kind of hidden in certain apps. For example, it’s pretty front-and-center in Photos—just tap the three-button overflow menu, then “Print.” So simple.
