Let's Print PDF
Let's Print PDF acts as a PDF rendering engine, allowing Let's Print Droid to generate PCL and Postscript for PDF files. (a la GhostScript.)
To actually print a PDF file, you must install and run Let's Print Droid. By itself, Let's Print PDF acts only as a PDF viewer.
Let’s Print Droid (LPD) combined with Let's Print PDF is print enabling software for Android phones and Tablets. If you have a business grade laser or print server (CUPS,LPR,SAMBA, etc) , the app will talk directly to them without any off-site conversion. No print data leaves your local network unless you choose the GCP (Google Cloud Print) option. Most other print apps ship your PDF to a cloud server to convert it to something your printer understands.
- Works on devices using Android 2.3 or greater.
- Designed to print to wifi connected laser printers.
- ideal for connecting to print servers as it understands most protocols: Line Printer Daemon, IPP/CUPS, Server Message Block/CIFS, HTTP, JetDirect/RAW, etc.
- use the Share or Send function of another Android app to print.
- supports Google Cloud Print. Just choose Cloud Print from the Protocol option list in the Add Printer dialog box.
- can print PDFs, Jpeg, PNG, GIF images, Text Documents, GMails and static web pages.
- includes generic PCL,POSTSCRIPT & PDF drivers if your printer does not understand Raw image files.
- It allows visiting Android users to print with minimal configuration by the user. Load the app, scan a QR code; the document prints.
- Proxy Print Server mode (under the Browser Mode menu item) lets you print photos from your iPad/iPhone or other device.
- Bonjour (AirPrint) / Avahi Printer Discovery using multicast DNS. Hit menu->New Printer and choose Scan option.

This worked perfect to grab a schematic on line and save it for later viewing. Well done and very simple. Using the Acer Iconia 10.
It was working perfectly but now it no longer shows up in my options after selecting 'Share' in the browser. 😢 I have Android Oreo on my ZTE Axon 7.
Failed to save png fie on SDCARD error. If no SD card installed will no work.
Useless couldn't print.
Best app download it
Just really bad, couldn't print my PDF. I have better luck probably trying to print with a lawn mower. Not compatible with my laser jet printer at all.
Awesome program. Had some issues with cloud printing on my Note 3. Developer tried his best to help me, but alias we couldn't get it to work. However, I am happy to say that the last update sorted the problem. Thank you.
Used to work brilliantly, but falls over on Samsung S7 android 6.0.1. I think a message appears, but it is far too quick to read. Should I be able to configure it from within the app? I can't find a way to see if it's simply a config problem. Let's print droid is working and has on-device pdf rendering checked.
It would be a good additional feature to be able covert documents, pictures and presentations to PDF using the app
Ask this app to print & it sez install a second app. Install it and try to print something and it says install a third app...
Nice app but i miss the printer setup page, when i can configure the printing colors and quality
Does what it was suppose to do... Needed to print a pdf from my phone quick and this worked like a charm.
No hesitation! Have looked at others and between nagware and ripoffware... this app leaves em behind! Two thumbs!
Still don't know what it converts. Real crap. Don't waste your time and data!!!
I went from printing to printing PDFs!!! Where does it end? It works, and does everything I need. Great module
Tried printing from xperia z3 to canon mf220 via otg usb. Prints 5 pages then gets some error (disappears after 2 secs so couldn't read). Can't select page range?
Works perfect with my print server.
Trying to print a PDF and it asked me to install other apps. In the end still no print..what's going on??????
Waste of time
GREAT till updated
Thanks!
The necessity of 'cloud print' is ridiculous, given that printing by itself is of course a local task. This app provides functionality what should have been included in the standard Android platform. I'm really satisfied with this app, it does what it says!
could not get this to print a docx file to pdf. As docx is the most common document file format, this qualifies the following statement as factual: this app fails to perform the stated task.
Kept telling there was not enough memory even if the pad (GT2/7) was just booted.
I have heard it said that Android lacks a unified print solution. Not any more... Developer very quick to respond.
This app first of all then requires you to download another app the let's print suite -- then when you want to print your PDF asks you to go to your printer and scan some sort of a QR bar code --absurd ridiculous avoid
Hi Blackspruce...thanks for your work on this. Why does the new update require full internet access?
Worthlessly Slow - Does not work.
This App is only a PDF Viewer, it does NOT CONVERT documents nor webpages to PDF.
Completely useless app. The interface is not intuitive at all and simple functions like printing a picture to PDF is difficult to accomplish. Plus it requires you to install an additional app for it to function. Dont waste your time with this app.
