HP gives offers BlackBerry users the Ability to Print at hundreds of locations Nationwide.
Whether you’re a business owner or a professional, we have all had those moments when you’re on the road and really need to print a document from your BlackBerry. It can be truly frustrating trying to locate someplace to forward the email to, and then ask them to print out the document. HP has heard the cry of mobile users, and has launched the HP ePrint on the Go service which allows users to print documents directly from their BlackBerry Smartphones at hundreds of locations nationwide included Fedex Kinko and Hilton business centers. Here is an overview of the service and a link to download the HP ePrint app to your BlackBerry smartphone.
HP ePrint on the Go service for BlackBerry®
HP ePrint makes it possible for BlackBerry® smartphone users to easily print documents, presentations, reports and more, virtually anytime, anywhere.
HP ePrint locations allows you to print from your BlackBerry smartphone to HP ePrint-enabled hotspots—print and copy retail stores as well as hotels, airport lounges and more—giving you easy access to the printed documents you need on the go.
Many HP ePrint locations are powered by PrinterOn®. With HP ePrint and the PrinterOn network of public printers—called PrintSpots— you’ll be able to print wherever life and business takes you.
A demo HP ePrint app is available April 26, 2010. In the demo app, you will see the places you can print to today. As additional locations become available, they will show up automatically in the HP ePrint directory of printers on your BlackBerry smartphone. Please note that each public print location has its own pricing policy. The availability of HP ePrint locations you can print to will also vary geographically.
Use HP ePrint to quickly print a wide variety of files and formats, including:
- Microsoft Word documents
- Excel spreadsheets
- PowerPoint presentations
- PDFs
- Image files
- HTML files
- Text and rich text files
- XPS documents
To use HP ePrint locations on the go, download the HP ePrint app (demo app available April 26, 2010). In the demo app, you will see the places you can print to today.

A few of you will use this app only when you are in a bind, and really need to print something quickly. If you have not downloaded Google maps for BlackBerry, be sure you do. It will help you map and locate the nearest location the app tells you that you can use this service. Also call before you go to check on pricing and if they do support the service at that particular location. These tips could save you time and a little frustration.
