How To Print Screenshots From Your Android Phone
By MARINEL SIGUE
While it’s easy to share your screenshots with anyone via Bluetooth or text messages, you may find yourself needing to have a printed copy of the saved image or proof of payment.
Printing can be done with a laptop or desktop, but rather than going through the extra steps for the other devices, you can instead link your printer and Android device together.
To set up the connection:
1. Connect your Android device and printer to the same Wi-Fi network. Go to Settings > Connected Devices > Connection Preferences > Printing.
These instructions may differ depending on your OS version and manufacturer.
2. Select Add Service. Download and install the plugin for your specific printer.
After connecting the devices:
1. Open the Google Photos app and tap the Library tab. Under “Photos On Device,” select the Screenshots folder and select the screenshot to print.
2. Tap on the three vertical dots and select Print. Press “Select A Printer” and choose your printer. Select All Printers if yours doesn’t show up automatically.
3. Accept the Terms of Use. You can expand the print options menu to change things like the number of copies to print. You will see a print preview as you change options.
4. After you finish, tap the print icon on the top-left side. Press OK on the pop-up box to confirm the printer plugin.
