BlackBerry® PlayBook™

[pastorjonward]

When will this device that supposedly lets me "leave my laptop behind" perform the basic function of allowing me to print the documents on my playbook to a network printer wirelessly?  This is truly one of the greatest frustrations I have with this hardware (right up there with no netflix).

printing is a thing of the past.

if you want netflix...post on that board.

Printing may well be a thing of your past, but it is a thing of my present.

We use everything from web-based, facebook, email, text messages, voice phone calls and yes - paper to perform something as simple as a sign-up list for an activity/event in order to access our entire congregation.

I have been a long-time fan of BB. I purchased a Playbook as soon as they came out, and am stoked about BB10...but I still need to print on a daily basis.

I don't know whether what I do applies to your requirements but anyway:

1. I found an excellent app in App World called "Print" and installed it on my PB for a minor cost.  It has a server portion you download and install on a Windows PC.

2.. Configure the Print app to find your PC server over WiFi and tap the Print icon.  You are given the opportunity to select a file from your PB to print and your PC will control the printing from it's installed printer.

Works great for my needs.
