HP iPrint PhotoEarly this year, HP developed a mobile iPhone app that enables wireless printing from a handset over Wi-Fi. Now the company announced expansion of its iPrint Photo app for both the Symbian and Windows Mobile platforms. The software will also gain new features, including “in-app photo capture, print quality enhancement, support for different types of paper and additional photo print sizes – 3×5, 4×6, 5×7.” The orignal app for iPhone is only capable of printing 4×6 prints, but it too, will gain the new features. Symbian and WinMo handset owners will find the app in the Ovi store and Windows Marketplace, respectively.

You’ll need an HP printer on your wireless network for printing to work, of course. But it’s a handy, wire-free way to get prints from a smartphone, no?

  • Will this be only for printing photos, and not allow printing from other apps like Pocket Office or emails, web pages?
