printing from mobile

[mdfurqan2012]

Can we use our ricoh mp4001 mfp for printing from mobile device?
Can any printer without having eprint option use as cloud printer through software?
Please guide me

Partially. Ricoh has a mobile app: RICOH Smart Device Print&Scan | Global | Ricoh
You need to be on the same network as the device for it to work though. In other words, you can't be miles away and have it print to an MFP.

It works on Android, iOS, and BlackBerry 10 if you sideload the Android version.

There's also PrintHand for Android (paid app) that can print to many different kinds of MFP's and printers.

I believe that P/S 3 is also necessary for this app to work isn't it?

PS card is required for any mobile printing as far as I have found on most that don't have it built in.

Re: printing from mobile

Ricoh has a number of mobile print options depending on the model you want to print to. Some, such as cloud printing allow to print from anywhere that you have internet access. They also have Private/Corporate Cloud printing that allows printing anywhere with the Private/Corporate network. The print job is actually sent to the MFP as an email attachment and privacy can be set that will then require entering a retrieval code in order to print. Requires JAVA and the appropriate AP on the MFP and an AP on the mobile device. The best way to learn about what Ricoh has is to go to their online learning site for your region. Fir the US that would be Ricoh Learning Institute

Re: printing from mobile

If you want to print from an Apple mobile device (iPad, iPhone, etc), then you can install AirPort for Windows (free) on a Windows Server. Share any already installed printer, and it will be picked up by the built in printing functionality of the Apple device. No applications needed. No postscript.
