Looking through the archives on the forum, I see that there have been some attempts to get AirPrint working, but no success stories or examples yet. Has anyone been successful?
In order to move forward with producing an iOS version of one of our apps, we have to be able to print the contents of a browser control.
Any help/insight/pointers would be appreciated.
Thanks!
The best I was able to figure out was using UIActivity (the standard sharing menu) with all options except printing disabled, then point the UIActivity at a folderitem and display it. Then the user can either print or cancel. Not as elegant as using the Apple classes directly, but I couldn’t get those to work anyway.

dtPlugins has a very good method to print. Not sure about what printing the content of a browser would imply.
All the contents - I will use an HTML viewer to show a report on screen that they can scroll through, then need to be able to let them print the whole report (can be upwards of 30 printed pages for the big ones).
