bling19572010 Posted October 8, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 8, 2014 (edited) I have an Android Galaxy S4 and would like to be able to print documents (PDFs, itineraries, etc) while onboard the Oasis or anywhere like a hotel, etc. Has anyone done this? If so, what printer app did you use? (Android phone only). Edited October 8, 2014 by bling19572010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6rugrats Posted October 8, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Are you planning on using the ship's printers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bling19572010 Posted October 8, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Are you planning on using the ship's printers? Either the ship's printer or a hotel printer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted October 8, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Print them before you leave home, and use the old standby (handwriting) for those things you don't happen to know in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to have to carry a lot of papers. I only want to print what I find that I absolutely need while on my cruise vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Create PDFs and put them on your phone. This avoids printing. The docs are easy to find and easy to access. They only get lost if your phone / table gets lost. The only paper I every take is the boarding pass because some of the check-in folks get all flustered when an electronic boarding pass is used.

Krazy Kruizers Posted October 9, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 9, 2014 You are going to waste a lot of cruise/port time waiting to hunt and print out what you want. Do your homework before you leave on the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose30 Posted October 9, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 9, 2014 If you can gain access to a WiFi printer,during your travels, the app by Hammermill is very good and its free. Another app is printer share there is a cost for it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted October 9, 2014 #9 Share Posted October 9, 2014 (edited) I can't speak for Oasis but on HAL you can only print from the on-board computers provided for guests' use. I have printed e-mails etc but never from my own device. Last time I printed was probably 2 years ago so that may have changed but I don't think so.

Thanks Snowskier. Do you use any certain app (I have an Android) to store all of your PDF's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted October 11, 2014 #12 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Thanks Snowskier. Do you use any certain app (I have an Android) to store all of your PDF's? On the iPhone I save PDFs in iBooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted October 11, 2014 #13 Share Posted October 11, 2014 On the iPhone I save PDFs in iBooks. But do hotel or ship's computers allow you to connect and print from your iPhone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
