HP is well know for its printers but they have also been aggressively pursuing the mobile space with their Windows tablets and their recent acquisition of Palm and its WebOS. With this push into mobile computing, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that printing support would be one of the first things HP would cover.
HP recently announced a range of printers supporting ePrint, a technology which allows you to e-mail attachments to your printer and have the documents automatically printed. To get this magic to work, you have to register the printer with HP’s cloud service when it will then be assigned an e-mail address to send documents for printing.
With the printer’s built in WiFi support and the fact that ePrint does not require a print driver, these printers are a great solution for iPad and iPhone owners. You can now wirelessly print without having to purchase or install additional apps on your iOS device. According to HP, the ePrint service can print images, Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents, PDFs, and photos.
