Late for a concert? Quickly print your tickets from your iPod touch. Stumble upon a list of cheat codes for the RPG you’ve been struggling with? Print it and share it with your friends. A few taps is all it takes to go from onscreen to on paper.
Hard copies made easy.
AirPrint on iPod touch makes it simple to print your email, photos, web pages, and documents. There’s no software to download, no drivers to install, and no cables to connect. With just a few taps on your iPod touch, you can go from viewing something onscreen to holding a printed copy. And because all the printing takes place in the background, there’s no waiting around. Instead, you can start printing and then go back to flicking through photos, browsing the web, or doing whatever you were doing before.
True wireless printing.
“No cables required” means exactly that. AirPrint printing is 100 percent wireless. iPod touch automatically locates and connects to AirPrint-enabled printers on your wireless network. Whether you’re on the other side of the house or on another floor from your printer — or you’re walking from one room to the next — you can still print what you need, when you need it. In fact, it’s all so easy and fast that by the time you finish reading this sentence, you could have printed it from your iPod touch.
What you see is what you print.
If you can open it on your iPod touch, chances are you can print it with AirPrint. AirPrint works with built-in apps including Safari, Mail, Photos, iWork, and PDFs in iBooks. Depending on what you print, AirPrint adjusts accordingly. For example, if you want to print a picture and your printer has a photo paper tray, AirPrint automatically selects photo paper. You can also line up multiple print jobs and manage your queue.
And AirPrint isn't just for Apple apps — many other apps support AirPrint, too. Say you've found a great dinner recipe on your favorite cooking app. You can quickly print out the list of ingredients before heading to the store. And everyday there are more and more apps that print with AirPrint.
