4.2 Printing Photos

Before you start printing photos, you must configure the Novell iPrint app either by specifying the iPrint Mobile Server address or by scanning the QR code of the printer. Before you begin, ensure that you have been provided with a User ID and Password by your administrator as you will be required to enter your credentials during the configuration process.

4.2.1 On a Windows Mobile Device

  1. Launch the Novell iPrint app.

  2. Complete the steps 2 through 6 as outlined in Section 4.1, Printing Documents.

  3. Swipe over to the Photos menu.

  4. Select a photo.

  5. Tap the printer icon.

  6. Tap printer, then select a printer from the My Printers list.

  7. Set your print preference for the following options:

    Color: Enables or disables color printing.

    Orientation: Prints in Portrait or Landscape mode.

    Copies: Sets the number of copies to print.

    Page Size: Sets the page size, such as Letter, A3, A4, and so forth.

  8. Tap Print.

    On Windows Phone 8.1, tap the icon.

    If you are not connected to the Internet when printing, and if email printing is enabled by the administrator, Novell iPrint prompts you to switch to email printing. The email client of your device is displayed, with the content populated, and the document attached. Tap Send. The email is saved in your email client’s outbox. After you connect to the Internet, the email is automatically sent, and the document is printed.

    If you have upgraded from Windows Phone 8 to Windows Phone 8.1 and if you are printing to a secure printer, the Novell iPrint app prompts you to re-enter your User ID and Password. To avoid future prompts, use the Save Password option.
