| Gonna give this a try and see how it works! I wish Android had some sorta native printer support built in... |

What I'd like to find (and haven't yet) is a printing utility that has the 'nearby printer' feature of Printer Share, but without having to spend a good bit of money to get the functionality.
Printer Share supports WiFi and Bluetooth enabled printers (of which I just happen to own two) but for a price that I find a bit high no more than I'd likely use it, but I don't think the Cloud Print app offers this functionality, does it?
I don't really cotton to the remote printing via the Cloud approach and it seems a bit of overkill when the printer is close.
But really I agree with Bender_2k that it would be very nice if printer support was built in (or is it in the most recent versions of Android?).

My droid 3 does but I've never been able to get it to work. It's called MotoPrint.

I use it for remote printing. For example, if I am at the office and I want to print something at home I can do that with this app.

Reston, VA | Yes, I understand that, but I'm not quite sure why I'd want/need to do that. Why not just send the document via e-mail (or whatever) and print it when I get home (or have an alternate recipient print it otherwise)?

Gone South | That is certainly an option, but for me it is quicker just to print it from the office. |
