In this article we are going to look at a group of mobile printing technologies (for Android and Apple smartphones/tablets) that HP calls by the term HP ePrint.
Most of these HP ePrint technologies use cloud based resources to provide mobile printing capabilities for specific HP ePrint-enabled printers and Multi Function Printers (MFP).
AirPrint is a similar technology to Google’s Cloud Print and HP’s ePrint. It is Apple’s version of Wi-Fi printing and was premiered in 2010. This driverless and wireless printing requires a printer that is AirPrint enabled. Printing can also be done from any of Apple’s mobile devices including all models of the iPad, iPhones that are 3GS or later, and iPod Touch that are third generation or later. Printers that are not AirPrint-enabled can use AirPrint by downloading special software.
