I know this topic is probably "The-Topic-that-must-not-be-mentioned" when we are discussing a wireless handheld platform like the 770. However, I have run into a couple of situations where printing would be useful. For example, I have taken notes at a meeting or made a to-do list that would be great in printed form.

So my questions are: what support is there for printing on the 770? Has anyone done it? What's involved?

Thanks!

Well, in my case it's usually emailing the file, then printing from a pc.
You usually have printers connected to PC's anyway...

There are probably ways to implement printing, but I'm afraid it's not a priority for anyone at this time...

There also was a discussion about bluetooth-enabled printers around here a while ago, but I don't know if anyone has actually tried.

first you'd have to install some sort of print system. i'm sure cups is out due to it being a big fat hog, and lpd doesn't support a lof printers, though it might support enough to be usefull. bt or network attached via wifi might be doable. next you need an app that supprts printing, this could be harder

I'd be happy with a PDF generator that would allow me to email web pages.
