Will our phones print web pages and such over the Bluetooth? My wife does a lot of printing coupons and I figured it would be one more IP to print from if its possible. I know it wont print them via cloud and such. Thanks in advance
Take a look at PrinterShare. This page doesn't mention BT but the app supports it. Try the free, crippled version first to check compatibility.

I saw that but if I get a new printer Id like to do it over bluetooth.
Printers over wifi & Google cloud print are pretty well fail proof. If running ICS ull have the ability to run chrome. Chrome from ur main PC or notebook use chrome, go into settings advanced settings. Click Google cloud print to add ur new wifi printer. It's all self explanatory from there.
Did a little searching and found a little tid bit on the G-Tablet forum about Cloud Print but just that it was good. That's good to know.
What I'm really wanting to know is which is better; Cloud Print or Print Cloud which from the screenshots looks to be optimized for the tablet.
My main objective is to be able to be at work and if I need to, to print something off at my home printer that I can do it remotely. Am I wrong in thinking that Google Cloud Print can do that? Also it seems that just recently pdf file format was supported with Cloud Print. Cloud Print just had an update four days ago while Print Cloud had it's last update on July 21st. I don't know if that is actually relevent but I just thought I would throw it in there.
Has anybody used both of these and if so which do they think is better and why?
EDIT: Disregard; I found the answer I was looking for.
I'm curious to know what to answer you found was? I've wanted to know this same thing for a while.
Print Cloud is for any Ricoh Print Cloud enabled device. Meaning Ricoh devices. Cloud Print is for almost every printer out there. Also if you have one of the very new HP printers that have Cloud Print capabilities you don't even need to have your computer on to print to the printer.
Google Cloud Print is really neat. Once you have your printer and Google account set up, so long as your computer and printer stay on you can be anywhere in the world and print to your printer via your tablet. The nice thing is that the Cloud Print app is free. Considering that the iOS app for the iPad is $10. Two thumbs up for Android apps.
I was at work yesterday and jumped up on my TF and retrieved an email that I wanted printed so a family member could use the information. I opened my email and 'selected all' in the document, chose the Share button up at the top and selected Cloud Print and sent my email to my printer at home where my daughter could get the Sku / Tracking number for an item I had purchased at Walmart for 'Site to Store' pickup. She took the printed email and went to Walmart and picked up the item and it was waiting for me when I got home.
Possibilities are endless with this service. Imagine browsing the web and you come across a web page that has an article that you want printed. Just copy the article and share it and select Cloud Print and send it to your printer and it will be waiting for you when you get home.
It's still in beta but I can assure you that it works very well.
Cheers...

I'd suggest the same with Nefariouss.
Printershare.
Just go to google play and download it. Easy to use.
Can be used over wi-fi, or google cloud.

Nobody is telling you to print from your PC. You have to use an app called Printer Share, or Cloud Print to print gmail from your NOTE 10.1. We can accomplish this by using the service Google Cloud Print. http://www.google.com/cloudprint/learn/
You will set up this service initially on your PC. It will act as an inbetween from your note to your printer. Once you have added your printer to the list of authorized devices in Google Cloud Print you then can use one of the above mentioned apps to print from GMAIL through the APP.
For instance I use Printer Share. So I open the App, and there are 9 options laid out in a 3x3 grid. I choose the Gmail icon and it opens up a list of my gmail emails.I then choose what email I want to print and select the print option. It give me a print overview. At this point I can hit print again and it will print the gmail to the corresponding printer that I have set up through Google Cloud Print.
The only caveat is that your Computer has to be on. But you can then print from anywhere in the world to your printer as long as both your computer is on and your Note has internet access.
You can also use these apps to print any thing from your Note to your home printers. For instance I have a photo printer, color printer and a laser printer connected to my google cloud account. If I'm printing documents or notes I can choose the laser printer. If I need to print something that has color graphs or text I can choose my color printer. If i want to print a photo from my note I can choose the photo printer. I don't use the photo printer that much because I normally don't keep paper in the paper tray and I like a lot more control over my photos through the use of photoshop. But the option is there if you want.
If you use Firefox you can save any website as a PDF from the main menu.

Is is very disappointing in the modern era that I need to have the pc switched on to print from tablet to printer. To add insult to injury Samsung will only allow Samsung printer to print emails (non Google) directly. I can print documents and photos but not emails from tablet to HP printer using HP apps. There is no apps similar to one for pc so that all things can be printed without all these porking around. May be android needs to grownup or me to go back to windows based system.

Why would you ever switch your PC off? If your printer is connected to a desktop then you shouldn't have any problems printing over the network. If it's a WiFi enabled printer, see if there is an app for that printer brand.

Of course man...
In cloud computing, u will still need ur cloud server to be on, in order to access ur sharing files.
Same with this. Ur computer will act as a cloud printer server. Of course it will need to stay on.
Or, if u have a wifi printer, u can try to connect first.

Yes I use a HP WiFi printer. So I don't normally have both on. I still can't believe thereby are no printer drivers or similar for a tablet. I moved to tablet for home use so that I could simply get rid of pc. Now it appears I have to have both systems

Then don't use Google cloud. That was just a suggestion. Use the other suggestion. It is an app called "PRINTER SHARE". It is in the play store. Prints directly from your tablet. Not to be a **** but you keep saying how it amazes you that you can't do this...you can buddy! It amazes me you can't read all the post's to YOUR question! Again not being a **** but it has been stated you can accomplish your goal with an app! Please read everything!

I know it worked before from within Chrome. I could choose any of my devices and the file would show up in downloads....
Now after selecting my Nexus 7 for example, everything is greyed out including the print button. After a few seconds it says Cloud Print - Unavailable beneath the device.
From the PC web cloud printer management, it says my devices are online and available.
Have tried clearing data from print spooler, cloud print and chrome. Even uninstalled chrome updates (Print becomes Save after un installing updates.). Any ideas? Clear services framework?
Asked a friend and her stuff is greyed out also?

I have the same problem. Did you ever figure it out?
I have the exact issue, have you found a fix? (Brother HL-5450DN Laser Printer)
if your using the chrome tray applet on a windows desktop install (7 & up) & received an update to chrome on your desktop prior to the issue,
simply reboot the *desktop* b0x..
Can't print emails. I need to take a screen shot then print using printer share. Is there a way to add printer share to the dropdown menu on the email page since the print option does not work?
