I thought I'd mention another printing option that works with both Mac and Windows computers and doesn't require any special printer. This option is more involved than what has already been mentioned but perhaps it might be useful to someone.
This option uses Google Cloud Print and requires the Chrome browser be installed on your computer and the PrintCentral Pro app ($4.99) be installed on your iDevice. If interested, the below How-To-Geek article explains the steps required: http://www.howtogeek.com/165160/how-and-why-to-get-started-with-google-cloud-print/ Here's the iTunes Store link to the PrintCentral Pro app: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/printcentral-pro/id426362921?mt=8 I was able to successfully set this up a few months back and print from my iPhone 5 to my Brother USB laser printer which is neither wireless nor an Airprint printer. I don't print much hard copy anymore and prefer to print to pdf files so I'm no longer using this option. It does seem more involved than other solutions mentioned but since choice is always a good thing, I thought I'd mention this one.

I have not tried it yet, but I plan to. Rose, this may be a solution for you. It works with PC or Mac. There is a free utility you install on your PC, then you can print from your iPhone to any printer connected by USB or wifi to your computer. The full app costs $6.99. They have a free light version to try to make sure it will work with your PC. I'm having no luck with the App store to actually download anything right now, but here is the link to the light version. I'd take the time to read all about it as well as checking out their web site. Printer Pro Lite by Readdle https://appsto.re/us/_6P0x.i HTH, Richard PS, Eileen, even if you have an app on your phone, you can share the link. Double tap on the app name in the app store so you open the description, then double tap on the share button and double tap on the copy link. The only limits are those of vision. 🐉 Sent from my iPhone 5S On Nov 11, 2014, at 4:54 AM, Rose Combs <[email protected]> wrote: I have a PC not a MAC.

The name of the app is called "Printer Pro" and the web site is: www.readdle.com. I can't provide the iTunes link because it's already installed on my phone. So, if one finds a printer that has the features that fills their needs and is in their budget, this is a way to use their printer with the iPhone. HTH.
