Printer Pro

Apple has made Printer Pro — a printing app — as the Free App of the Week on the iOS App Store. Developed by Readdle, the app allows iPhone and iPad owners to “print just about anything” from their device to any printer. 

For printers that lack Wi-Fi, Readdle has an accompanying desktop app that will allow iOS users to print any documents, PDF, web pages or more from their device. The app is usually priced at $6.99, but can be downloaded for free from the App Store throughout this week.

Once installed, Printer Pro appears in the “Open In…” list on your device. This lets you print documents from Mail, PDF Expert and many other applications on your iPad that supports this function.

Using “Open In…” approach you can print files from many popular online storages: Dropbox and Google Drive. It just a matter of several taps to download your file via free Dropbox or Google Drive application and send it to printer.

To print a web page, just change “http” to “phttp” in the address bar in Safari and tap Go. The page will immediately be opened in the Printer Pro with print button right above your finger. You can print web based documents as well using this approach.
