[android] Tablet Printing

[T_Lister]

We have a member of staff that wishes to use tablets and be able to print. At this time we are not wanting to purchase any print management for tablets as it is only 6. I know using an HP printer App on my phone I can do this via the network by programing a printer IP in. However the budget for the tablets is minimum, the one I am currently looking at is a GoClever Orion. Does anyone know whether these, or another tablet that would cost less than £100 would work printing through a network like this? We use mainly HP Network printers, so this app was ideal. I know already that Samsung don't like this system though.

 

Thanks in advance!

Could you not use something like Google Cloud Print?

ah ha, didn't realise that would work, apologies for my dopiness...

Is this the app you are talking about?

 

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hp.android.print&hl=en

 

I use this quite extensively at a primary school and havent had any issues with it.

I had been looking at this:

 

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hp.android.printservice&hl=en

 

But Google Cloud service seems to work a treat.

I'd avoid the HP app, you got cloud print setup already?
