Pretty simple question. Can I print from this tablet without buying a special Samsung printer?
Yep, provided you are connected to a network or router.
Canon makes an app, HP, Lexmark. Theres also cloudprint (if you are connected to the internet and have a "cloud" printer or have one attached to your network and Chrome running on your computer.
Or Printershare also works generically but in my experience, it does not print duplex (if this is an issue for you) locally, it has to be printed through the cloud printer setup connected within printershare.
So yes, you can print.

Can I reach to the files of my notebook with Wi-Fi smartphone in my wireless area? I want to perform a network between my smartphone and notebook with Wi-Fi network. Is it possible?
No on smartphone you cannot access files that are on your notebook.
Try a VNC (easy).
Start with something like this: TightVNC (free) as a server on your notebook and .Net VNC Viewer (free) as a client on your phone; read and play.
There is lag time in rendering on the little screen; not to mention that it's a little screen (you might tire of looking at it and/or navigating).
Another good client is VNC+; it worked best for me among the clients that I tried but there is a cost.
You will be able to access your notebook via any Wi-Fi connection provided that your server is running and connected to the internet.
Good Luck.
FTP is a good solution too.
Install a FTP server (I use free GuildFTPd) on your laptop, and create a user with access to all drives or folders of interest. Make sure that no acces from the internet is possible if not neede for security reasons. Use a strong password.
Use Resco Explorer or Total Commander as client. This way you can download or upload files from your laptop.
Hi guys,
I have a client who has an Vodacom Andoid tablet, but needs to print to a bluetooth printer. However, neither the default browser or firefox allows to print directly from the browser. The option to first save the web page, and then print it from another application is a bit too lengthy and complex to use as a workable solution as about 25 agents will be using these tablets and the shorter the process the better.
Any suggestions?
Is it not possible to print an email, document or webpage directly to my printer? With my iphone if I am viewing a page and want to print it finds my printer on on my wifi network and prints straight from phone with no need to download.
Checked all of the settings and they all look correct. When I tap print it searches but can't find the printer. I can print on my Mac and ipad but not the Note 4.
Hi,
I am trying to configure an Android phone as a local web server, where people can directly connect to the phone (hotspot) and browse the content hosted locally on the phone (no internet access available). Similar to a Librarybox or Piratebox.
Web hosting part is straightforward with an app like KWS Webserver. However navigating to the hosted site is a little cumbersome as you have to know the local IP of the server. So I am looking for a way to automatically forward everyone who connects to the hotspot to a particular IP (that of the webserver). Similar to how most public WiFi networks take you to a login page when you connect?
Does anyone know how to do this easily (on a non-rooted phone)?
Thanks.
