Now you can have the convenience of printing documents right from the palm of your hand no matter where you are as long as you have access to your smartphone and Gmail.
Google recently released Cloud Print, a web feature that allows you to print documents on your home printer from anywhere. Google Cloud was only available for Chrome OS but now iPhone and Android users can print anything from mobile Gmail on-the-go.
To do so:
You will first need to connect your printer to Google cloud print. This requires a Windows PC but Linux and Mac support are coming soon.
To set this up go to Chrome’s preferences, click on options and then the Under the Hood tab which will then direct you to sign into Google Cloud Print. It should then automatically add all printers hooked up to that computer to your Google Cloud print manager (you will need the latest beta version of Google Chrome to set it up).
Once set up go to gmail.com from your iPhone or Android browser and choose Print from the dropdown menu in the top right corner you can print emails and attachments such as .pdf and .doc files.
