NOTICE

Be sure to always check, whether user's device supports image printing with SystemSupportsPrint function. Sometimes, user has phone with older OS than Android KitKat 4.4 & sometimes, device just doesn't have a capability of printing something. Plus, don't be scared, extension won't crash if image, that user is trying to print, is not existing.

Hello, sorry no. As, I am away from home (printer is at my house), so I can’t do anything right now.

#4

Make sure, to share apps here (in which you have used this extension)!

Buena extensión, funciona con impresoras Bluetooth…??

This extension pretty much launches a support app that can print, as in Android it is not possible to print directly. Most of Android phones has Google Cloud Print preinstalled. So I think yes, it works with BT printers.

Hi. Thanks so much for this extension. If I want to print the display on the screen what do I put for jobName and path?

Do you mean print a screenshot? Are you printing text, or images, or a mixture of both?

#9

Hi. In this example I want the user to be able to print a screenshot. The screenshot is mainly text. I would also like to know how the user can print a results label which only contains text. Thanks.

You could try using @Taifun’s screenshot extension:

@Dalia_Jayes Hey just take a screenshot with @taifun Screenshot extension using TakeScreenshot method and afterwards use AfterScreenshot block. Inside it call PrintImage method and set Path to Image and JobName to a name of this job. Example of job name: Screenshot Printing Job

Thanks

Anyways to print TEXT only?
Screenshot is not a solution for me because my TEXT is more than the screen height.

#15

Nope, sorry. Image print extension :slight_smile:, but you can always do a 10$ contribution to help and App Inventor, it’s distros!

@Hassan You can convert text into an image. An example: Place the text you want to print on a canvas, save the image and then use the image print extension of @ILoveThunkable.
To place the text on the canvas, you can use @Italo ´s Tutorial Outlined Text.
