Customers get their say after pushing printing to the No. 1 feature request slot

By Gregg KeizerApril 29, 2014 08:33Computerworld - Microsoft today shipped the first update for Office for iPad since its debut five weeks ago, adding printing to the three apps.

Microsoft said printing had been the No. 1 feature request from customers.

Users can print documents from Word for iPad, whole or partial spreadsheets from Excel, and presentations or individual slides from PowerPoint. The apps use Apple's AirPrint technology to print via a Wi-Fi network. A complete list of AirPrint printers can be found on Apple's website, and include devices from manufacturers like Brother, Epson, Hewlett-Packard, Ricoh and Samsung.

Apple launched AirPrint in the fall of 2010 with iOS 4.2, and added it OS X in mid-2011 when it shipped Lion, or OS X 10.7.
