The praises of remote printing software have been thoroughly documented, so we won’t run through them here. But, what’s probably even more convenient than being able to print remotely, is being able to do it from wireless devices like an iPhone, BlackBerry or iPod.

Following are a few of the more popular apps for wireless devices that make printing on-the-go easier.

Remote Printing Software for Your Blackberry: Remote Print is one of the most popular apps (if not the most popular) for BlackBerries. The tag line for this incredible little app could be "Print from anywhere, at any time, using any network" because it does so much.

As detailed on the BlackBerry website, you can:

". . . print almost any file from your device including emails, photos, PDF, Excel, Word, address contacts, memos, all Office documents and more! If you can print it from your PC, you can print it with this application!"

Remote Printing Software for Your iPhone: Print Magic is indeed magic for iPhone users. With this handy little app, you can print plain text or graphic-laden web pages - and even photos. It connects seamlessly with any Wi-Fi printer on your network.

One of the most celebrated features of Print Magic is that, unlike other print-from-your-iPhone apps, you don’t need to have any server-side software installed on your stand-alone Mac. Another nifty featured appreciated by those who hate small print are the seven print-size options (e.g. legal, letter, etc.).

Remote Printing Software for Your Smartphone: LogMeIn allows you to print from any computer or Smartphone in the world. This is just the tip of the iceberg with this app though. You can also share files, back up data, as well as perform a range of functions.

It can be thought of more as a "universal app," as opposed to "just" a remote printing app.
