If there was an individual design flaw for the iPad in my view, it is the not enough a USB port for printing. PrintCentral is an iPad app designed to rectify this problem and it is a must have app should you use your iPad for office or assignment work. For just $9. 99, you may turn your iPad in to a portable office.
Printing
PrintCentral prints directly to most WIFI enabled printers. If you have some sort of shared home/office printer that will connect to a multi-level, but does not possess a built-in WIFI receiver, as long as a WIFI router is attached to that network you can print with all your iPad! In addition, PrintCentral allows iPad people to print through their PC or MAC via a WIFI network or Wireless bluetooth. What this means is that basically ALL printers may be used with your iPad. For AppleMail users, you can open and print AppleMail directly in the PrintCentral App and print several attachments. The PrintCentral App can print all file formats including picture together with video. It can also zilch and unzip files additionally. While we did not necessarily test this feature, but the PrintCentral app also allows you to print remotely through your 3G/EDGE network.
Integration
What's nice relating to this App is that it fully integrates for a iPad. If an ipad app supports the apple OS command "Open in..., " that means you may print directly from that app without needing to switch to PrintCentral. Printing in the iPad browser worked correctly. We tried printing with iWork and also other iPad apps such as Things and iAnnotate, and also the results were stellar. Should you use iWork, the full integration gives you do open and modify documents stored in PrintCentral directly in iWork. For include those with cloud services such as iDisk/MobileMe, you can open files stored in those services directly in iWork by way of PrintCentral. (Just featuring "Places" section in your PrintCentral).
Viewing together with Printing Emails
The PrintCentral App has a built in email app. What's useful about that feature is that it allows you to print your email contraptions effortlessly. The email app was quite powerful precisely as it allowed us to send HTML and formatted text emails. It works like any standard email client letting you email various file formats as well as photos and video attachments. PrintCentral's email client allowed us to view multiple email accounts and inboxes. We tested it with Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, and Exchange 2007 OWA without the need of bugs or glitches to help report. Any IMAP or POP Server ought to be easily setup in the e-mail client. The developer stated PrintCentral's inbox client also provides limited support to exchange 2003 but we were not able to test that system.
