How to print?

Does anybody know if there is a way to print from your BlackBerry to a printer?

If you have an e-printer you can send it to the email address of the printer.

Is there an app for that or can it be done straight from the OS?

As the previous poster said, email an e-printer from your device with your document attached to the email.

Alright thanks! I will try to figure that out..

No there is no app that will print directly from PB to a network printer. There are a couple of apps involving software installed on a pc as a workaround but, that's as close as you will get.

oh ok.. my gf has an iphone and she can print straight from her phone to the printer. Software is built right into the OS. You can just select a picture or document and it will find the nearest printer and print!

I will try the e-mail method.

What are the apps you are referring to?

In app world, print, printtools, print my files, to your own printer, and Ricoh hotspot printing, to public Ricoh printers.

There are also some that can be sideloaded.

If you're trying to do it from your 9930 there is an HP app that works with HP wireless printers. It is a buggy app though. I removed it from my 9900.

I have been unable to find any side loaded print apps that actually run. Any you can recommend?

Kodak app in goodereader, I don't have a Kodak printer to test Blackberry Playbook Photography and Image Apps | Good e-Reader Android APP Store - Playbook App Market

I thought someone converted one for canon too but I can't find that one

Good find, thank you!! I was totally unaware of this one. I don't have a Kodak printer to test this either but, will as soon as I can find one. Anyone else here have any experience with this app?
