Here's a fairly decent tutorial : http://bynomial.com/blog/?p=115 Mark Comments You can, but it would involve, essentially, creating a button and associating the tap with the print code.

I can see a use for this in loads of applications, especially with the range on new printers with air print and eprint. I know if I was out trekking using a map app or guide app a little bakup print would be viable. On info apps it would be useful and I know on a quiz app that if my daughter could have printed her 100% correct reward screen to show her friends she would. Comments What a great post Jack/Mark.

Otherwise it's probably gonna prompt them to set-up a printer when you call the function. I was looking at using AirPrint to print PDF's from my app. But AirPrint is not supported on the original iPhone3 which is my testing device!

Option 1: Use a screenshot to capture image than use one of various apps to print.
