A little trick for adding printing capabilities to Windows Phone 8.1

Requirements:
- A phone with Windows Phone 8.1
- KumoPrint (app)
- A printer with Google Cloud Print support or a normal printer attached to a PC with Google Cloud Print service

Configuring (one time)
1.- Configure Google Cloud Print in the printer or the PC
2.- Open the KumoPrint app and select login
3.- Login with your Google credentials

How to print
- Open Office Hub
- Open the document you want to print (Word, Excel, etc)
- Open the three dots menu and select "Share"
- From the share menu select KumoPrint
- KumoPrint will open and select the printer you want and the print button.

You can print even using 3G (for example, print to the printer in the office from home).

You can print from the pictures hub with the same steps, open the picture you want to print and select share

You can print from any file manager too, using the same method.
 
Thanks for sharing this tutorial. This will be helpful to a lot of members. I've moved it to the Windows Phone 8.1 Guides forum.

Yes, but not all printers support e-mail printing, and with this method you can configure several printers and select where to send the printing job.
 
I have just got a Lumia 735 with 8.1
I want to print emails from my phone to my wireless printer. When I use my iPad mini to print, it finds the printer on my network by doing a quick scan. Does windows have this feature or is it basically down to the solution above? My printer is upstairs and the laptop downstairs and my printer dosnt support Google cloud print.
