In the world today more and more users and individuals are moving from the use of laptops to the use of mobiles especially tablets like the apple tablets,ipads,iphones e.t.c.and also organizations are also moving to tablets to help their staffs and administrators work from wherever they are through the use of various office automation products present in the society today especially I.C.T. related companies both home and abroad.With these new wave of technology sweeping around the globe like a wild fire arises more complexities especially in the area of printing and hard-copy production,we at pwlabs have outlined to u the various process for printing various kinds of documents from your ios 8 I-pad and I-phone with out any much stress or hassle below are the different steps and processes;
Email
To print from the Mail
app, open any message, tap the Reply button (the little curved arrow), and then
tap Print.
Email attachments
Depending on the
attachment, it might open inline within the body of the email, in which case
you can print it using the same method described above.
If it's something like a
Word file, though, tap the attachment to open it, then tap the screen to access
options. In the corner you should see a Share icon (represented by a square
with an arrow pointing up out of it). Tap that, then choose Print.
Magazine pages
I read a lot of apps on
my iPad, and often I come across a page or story I'd like to preserve in hard
copy. Alas, few magazine apps offer a direct print option, so you'll have to
try a couple workarounds.
If a magazine app won't let you
print, see if it will let you add the article to your Reading List.
First, if it's a single
page, take a screenshot (by simultaneously pressing the Home and Power
buttons). Then you can hit up the Photos app (see below) and print that
"photo."
Second, see if the
magazine has sharing options. In the app for Men's Health, for example, you can
tap just about any story, then the Share button, and then choose Add to Reading
List. Now bop over to Safari open Reading List, and
print from there.
Maps
Want a hard copy of your
driving directions? (Always a good idea.) In the Maps app, before tapping the Start button to begin route
guidance, tap Share, then Print. You'll get a nicely detailed list of the
turns, complete with thumbnails showing corresponding map snippets.
Notes
Nothing complicated
here: Open a note, tap the Share button, then Print.
PDFs
The process of printing
a PDF may be a bit different depending on where it's located. If it's an email
attachment, for example, you can print it using the directions described above.
If you've opened a PDF in your browser, you should have no trouble printing it
using the directions described below ("Web pages").
But what about a PDF
stored in, say, your Dropbox account? Assuming you have the Dropbox app, it's
just as easy: Open the PDF, tap the Share button, then tap Print.
Photos
It's easy enough to
print from the Photos app -- just tap the Share button and then Print -- but
you get very few options. That's no big deal for documents and the like, but
with photos it would be nice to control things like size, orientation, color,
and so on.For that, look to apps from your printer manufacturer: Brother, HP,
Epson, or whatever. Most of them give you greater control over photo printing.
Epson iPrint, for example, lets you choose the paper size and type, the photo
size, and even whether you want a border.
Web pages
Printing in Safari works just like printing in
Mail and Notes: Tap the Share icon, then tap Print. If you're a Chrome user,
just tap the Menu button (to the right of the address bar), then Print, then
Air Print.
Word documents
Microsoft's newly
updated Word app bears a close
resemblance to its desktop counterpart, so keep that in mind as you're looking
for the Print option. It's not in the Share menu like in so many other iOS
apps, but rather in the File menu, same as desktop Word.
That menu is accessed by
tapping an unfamiliar-looking icon in the upper-left corner, just to the right
of the Back arrow. You'll see Print in the drop-down menu that appears. It's
the same process for printing in Microsoft's Excel and PowerPoint apps.
