Description
Do you have a printer, maybe an older one, that you would like to print to from your phone or tablet? An inkjet or a black-and-white or color laser? Something even its manufacturer doesn't support anymore? Or they want to force you to subscribe to some cloud printing service to use it?
You found an app that allows you to print to a network printer directly from your device. Yes, on your home or office network, behind your own router and firewall. There is no cloud, nothing uploaded, nothing sent out, no registration, no external service to depend upon: everything happens on your own internal network – between your device and your printer.
Just check that your printer understands one of the many supported printer languages directly:
The app adds all your configured printers to Android and they will be available for any app that's capable to print: be it an e-mail app, calendar, document editor, game or whatever else.
The paid version, in addition to removing the ads, rewards your support with several extra features:
- use the server mode (see below); - you can print more than one page on a paper (N-up printing); - when you print several images to a page, they are printed in a collage layout instead of a simple, boring grid, with adaptive sizes to show each image in full, without cropping; - you can select from several display (dithering) options to make printing both black-and-white and colored image material much more interesting; - you can enlarge a smaller page to fit the page size of the printer; - you can change the brightness of the printout; - you can use non-uniform printer resolutions; - you can select your system font for the app.
SERVER MODE: The app is also capable of the reverse operation: instead of printing to a printer on your network, it can provide the print server that you can print to from your other network devices. Practically, you can connect your printer with an USB OTG adapter to your phone (maybe to an older phone no longer used) and it will become a full-fledged print server supporting the protocols above, accepting incoming print jobs from all your other mobile devices or computers, too.
ADS AND PRIVACY: Ads in the free version of the app are served by Google only. We don't sell or share your data, we don't even handle them. Privacy options are available wherever possible (EU/US) and you can revisit them anytime in Settings.
Recent changes: - Added support for more GDI printers - Fixed IPv6 IPP printer uri

Brilliantly done app effectively keep many legacy network printers viable while also supporting new models. Works perfectly with my HP Laser Jet 8000 (salvage) my family makes fun of!
★★★★★K Nelson· Mar 22, 2023
Works perfectly! Brother HL-2240D hooked up to network print server. Painless set up and worked with PCL5 settings.
★★★★★Hoshikawa Erina· Aug 18, 2024
It worked well enough. It has been a decade or so when Android lack a printer app that just do vanilla network printing (e.g. LPD & 9100) correctly. It's not perfect, my old HP color laser can take PS over 9100 when I use it on windows & Linux, but it only works with PCL 5c using this app. (PS work for printing test page, but only PCL 5c work when triggered from another app)

It detected my printer, but I was not successful in printing. Printer make/model is Canon Pixma G2010. Tried RAW/GDI, it sent something to printer to wake it up but no print. FIX IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
★★☆☆☆Mr DD· Jun 7, 2024
Loved the features but after test page all docs printing with previous print overlap! Tried all the formats. HP printer fprnats doesn't work with HP and brother Printer doesn't print any but the test page. Both on IPP network settings. All work as ports are correct and test page works. Overlap on HP makes no sense!
