Mobile Print – Disruption, Collaboration and Opportunity
summary
Explains why apps should support printing with concrete numbers and tools: Android has a built-in Android print framework since 4.4, manufacturers preload Mopria Print Service (available on Play) and roughly 560 million handsets can print via Mopria, while ~90% of new printers support mobile printing. The required change is practical — add a print button that invokes the system print intent — and developers get a universal service (works with HP/Canon/Xerox), smaller footprint, and measurable user value.
