What are the benefits?
- CONVENIENCE - print anywhere within the WiFi range without the burden of a cable.
- CHEAPER INK - enjoy the lower cost of ownership with more ink choices than a new printer.
- PHONE PRINT - print the page instantly from your phone before you forget.
- What it can't do? - print is OK but you still need to plug in for document scan if your printer has the scan option.
Description
Your laptop and desktop computers are connected over a WiFi network but you still need a physical USB cable to connect your wired printer to them.
This APP eliminates the USB printer cable, and turn your existing OR REFURBISHED printer wireless.
Basic kit = Raspbian BUSTER OS and Wireless Printer APP (Image File Download)
The basic kit includes an image file of the Raspbian OS (Kernel version:4.19) + the Wireless Printer APP.
The image file shall be made available for download once the order is placed.
We could ship the image file on 16GB micro SD card that's ready for use with your Raspberry Pi montherboard.
If your printer is not near the WiFi router, you could boost the range by ordering the add-on USB WiFi card that we'll ship along with the 16GB micro SD card.
You may use a multi-port USB hub for connecting to the printers and the USB WiFi card. So far we have tested ok with the HP Laserjet 1020 and the EPSON Photo Stylus CX4100 on the Wireless Printer APP running on a Raspberry Pi Model 3 A+ motherboard.
You may check whether yours is supported by clicking the "Add Printer" picture and get a taste of the live Wireless Printer APP.
What would you expect after placing the order?
We'll prepare the download link and the quick setup guide for you.
We'll message you the detail of the download link and you need a broadband connection to receive the file.
The download file consists of the Pre-Installed Raspberry Pi OS (Buster, shown in the left red box of above picture) and the Wireless Printer APP.
Sold as is.
