PrintHand Mobile Print vs Samsung Print Service Plugin Usage & Stats

Print directly from your phone or tablet via WiFi, Bluetooth or USB cable without a computer. Direct mobile scanning is available for selected multifunction printers. IMPORTANT: PrintHand app is NOT FREE. In order to print real pages, you’ll need to upgrade to Premium Mode by making in-app purchase. We do recommend printing a free test page prior to upgrading. NOTE: Unfortunately, we had to remove the SMS and Call log printing features from our app due to the update to the Permissions policy on Google Play. Dear customers, we are as much upset by this issue as you are. And we are doing our best to resolve the issue. For this reason please stay tuned to the app updates. Once we obtain the necessary Messages and Call log permissions from Google, we are planning to bring the features back to the app. Using PrintHand you can print the following content: - Office documents, including MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF; - Text files and other popular file types; - Photos and images; - Web pages, emails and attachments; - Google Drive content; - Events from Calendar app; - Contacts; - Facebook albums; - Files from Dropbox; - Files from Box; - Files from OneDrive; - Files from Creative Cloud; - Files from SugarSync; - Notes from Evernote; - Content shared from other apps. Print to Mac or Windows shared printers, Workgroup, Domain and Active Directory. Print directly via USB cable from Android 4.0 and above. Share the printer with our free software for Mac and PC from printhand.com, and print to any printer as long as you can print from the computer. You can print via: - Wi-Fi (using a Wi-Fi Direct printer or using a Wi-Fi router as a middle man); - Bluetooth; - USB if USB OTG is fully supported by your device and it has Android 4.0+ installed. Please note that some of the mobile devices are unable to communicate with a printer properly even if USB Host mode is supported. This happens due to specific electrical design of the USB port. Sadly in such case the app is not likely to work properly. - PC or Mac (if your printer is shared using PrintHand desktop client or standard tools of your computer's OS); Here is the list of printers supported by PrintHand app: http://printhand.com/list_of_supported_printers.php?platform=android Aslo here is the list of supported portable printers: http://printhand.com/list_of_supported_portable_printers.php?platform=android Please make sure that your printer is supported.
