DevBytes: Android 4.4 KitKat Printing API

From the creator

"In this episode, we introduce the new Printing API in Android 4.4 KitKat. This API provides a simple way for developers to print to cloud-connected printers using Google Cloud Print. It's really easy to print bitmaps, and HTML (that you generate on the device, or just web content). Here are some pro-tips: - For Webview/HTML printing, printing from javascript is not supported yet (window.print() for example). Also we are planning to address the limitations around WebView/HTML printing in future releases (eg: headers/footers, and specifying print ranges). - We encourage developers to open Android Open Source bugs for features that they feel important as a feedback.​ - Check out the printing lesson in the Training section - http://developer.android.com/training/printing/index.html" #printing #connectivity
