In the same program as I’d used to test on my HDX ( OfficeSuite Pro 7), there wasn’t a printer icon on the toolbar. I tested the Epson Print Plugin app on my second-generation Kindle Fire HD as well, and it also worked, but a little differently.

The Print to PDF option provides a handy printer workaround as well: you can ‘Print to PDF’, then email the PDF to yourself so you can download it and print it the usual way from your home or office computer. In OfficeSuite Pro 7 there’s also a built-in option to ‘print to PDF’, so that choice always shows up in the Print Options menu whether you’ve got a printer app installed or not. But the process works great in word processor, email, calendar and similar apps.įor example, in OfficeSuite Pro 7 running on my Kindle Fire HDX, after I’d downloaded and installed the Epson Print Plugin app (because I recently replaced that old Canon PIXMA) when I tapped the printer icon on the toolbar of my ‘documents’ window, a Print Options menu opened, showing the name of my Epson printer and allowing me to specify how many copies to print. Note that this is NOT a common option, and isn’t allowed at all from within ebooks or other DRM-protected types of content.

These apps all work the same way: you download and install the app, and from then on your printer shows up as an available printer in apps that have a “Print” option.

I provide step by step instructions for how to do this in my post, Amazon Review Tips & Tricks For Savvy Shoppers (feel free to click, the post will open in a new window).Īlternatively, you could try emailing the developer ( ) to ask if your specific printer is supported before buying it. If you would be willing to pay the asking price for this app but only if you can be sure it will work for you, I suggest using the Search This Product’s Reviews feature on Amazon to look for mentions of your specific printer name and/or model number in the customer reviews for this app.
This app is pretty popular among users (average review rating is 4/5 stars as of this writing) but it’s also expensive ($12.95 as of this writing) and you can’t really be sure it will work for your specific printer until after you’ve bought it and tried it. It also appears to me that Canon has updated the app since the last time I tried to use it, so that may be a factor as well.įor owners of any other type of printer, it seems the PrinterShare Mobile Print app is currently the best bet. Newer Canon printers are apparently another story, since in December of last year another Amazon reviewer reported that the app works fine for him with his newer-model PIXMA machine. After all, the Fire didn’t even exist when I first bought that printer. While I was never able to get the Canon Print Plugin to work with my Kindle Fire HDX and Canon PIXMA MX850, I’ve now concluded it’s because my printer was several years old at the time and probably didn’t have the correct ‘firmware’ to handle any kind of print order coming from a Kindle Fire.

The second-generation Fire tablets run a newer version of the Fire’s custom Android operating system, and that’s why this app is only compatible with the newer Fires. I’ve previously written about the CyPria printer app (which is not free) for owners of Epson printers, but now Epson has finally released its own, FREE, wireless Epson Print Plugin app for second-generation line of Kindle Fires: the HD and HDX models that were released late last year. More recently, Brother released its Brother iPrint&Scan app.
People who owned recent-model HP Printers could install the HP ePrint app. But soon enough, printer manufacturers started releasing their own free, wireless printer apps, and making them available for the Kindle Fire line. When the Kindle Fire line of tablets first hit the market, it wasn’t possible to easily print anything from them.
