No, I haven't used a printer in about 5 years. Everything's electronic now.

My accurate answer: I wonder if I can print through my PC (via IT and the cable)cause I have no wireless at home. I wonder if anyone will tell me if I can do this. I wonder if they do tell me, will it be so complicated that I will think "someday I might try".
I never expected to print from my IT and I wonder if I will ever have a reason to do so. From this last wondering I think it may be useful some time.

I voted that I have not tried and I do not need to print from tablet... at least for now.

Even from my home desktop PC, I print rarely, maybe once every 2 months...

Don't get me wrong: I'm excited about the possibility to print from tablet! I just have to find reason to print something in general...

I know only a few people have been polled, but I am very surprised at the responses.

I have been wanting to print for two years, and finally its working, I figured people would be as excited as me.


WOOO HOOO I AM PRINTING!!!! Oh well at least I can please myself, uh, perhaps that came out wrong?

I'm in about the same spot. I certainly wouldn't mind having printing support on my N800, but as I only print once a year from my home desktop (tax paperwork), it's not a pressing need for me. Printing support would have to take up very little storage space on the tablet to make it worthwhile as "just in case" kind of addition.

As it is, my home print server accepts print jobs via FTP, so if I had a simple command line FTP client for my N800, I could print text files right now. Given a PostScript printer to connect to the print server, I think I could do even more.
