Printing
If you’ve got a document ready for printing, why not
print it directly from your phone? PrinterShare lets
you do exactly that. However, as of publishing time,
it did not yet support printing Word or Excel files, so
this app is most useful for printing photos, not Office
documents. You also need to install desktop
software in order to print to non-Wi-Fi printers. The
free trial lets you print a test page to verify that it will
work.
As Android gains popularity, you can expect to see
more printing solutions; however, at the time of
publication, it’s a lonely field. Table A–2 shows
PrinterShare, the only app in this category.
