What file types are supported through wireless printing?

Below are the file types that are supported by Mobile Print:

  • Microsoft Office Word, Excel, and PowerPoint (see limitations)
  • Adobe Acrobat (.pdf)
  • Postscript files
  • Text files
  • Web Pages (see limitations)
  • HTML files
  • Rich Text Files (.rtf)

Limitations

Below are some limitations to the supported file types:

  • Web Pages. Additionally, there are limitations with printing web pages. Pages that require a username and password or use cookies to manage session data (e.g. a shopping cart) will not work with Mobile Print. Additionally, pages that use applets or have embedded multimedia content (e.g. Flash) may also not work. These pages may be printable via Mobile Print if they are saved as an Acrobat file.
  • Linked Content. Documents that display external content will not print successfully. An example would be a Word document that displays a picture that is linked, rather than inserted or embedded.
