Ask Slashdot: Best Way To Print From an Android Tablet?

KowboyKrash writes "Does any Slashdotter know how to print from an Android tablet? I have read about Google Cloud Print, but will it work from all (or at least most) apps? Is there a better solution? A little background: With my laptop being four years old, and the battery failing, I want to replace it with a device with 10 hours of battery. I am purchasing an Asus Transformer Prime after Christmas as a gift to myself; my plan is to replace my laptop completely for portable computing. I've already selected several apps that should meet my needs, including Polaris Office, and TeamViewer to remotely access my desktop. So are there any printing solutions for Android? Printing to my network printer at home is good enough."

you have to understand: this is slashdot and geeks NEED tablets to be cool. Now it's their time to shine: never in history "having a computer" was a cool thing. And let alone, have a computer on you 24/7. a nice tablet can get you LAID!
As smart as they are, geeks don't understand that it's not about the computer. It's about the person. Like 24 megapixel,36x zoom cameras: it's not about the camera. It's about the photographer.
