Printo › Print from anywhere

Print from anywhere with your iPhone

You are not at your desk, but the document needs to be on paper. Printo lets your iPhone print to the printer you already own, from anywhere with a connection.

Printing usually ties you to the room where the printer is. Phone printing helps only when your phone and printer share a network. Printo removes that limit by routing the job through a computer that is next to the printer.

You can use it for the everyday cases: print a school form for the kids at home while you are at work, send a signed PDF to the office printer from a train, or print a recipe on the kitchen printer from the shop. The printer doesn't need to be smart, only connected to a computer.
