Is there way to print from Apple and Android mobile browsers via bluetooth. I already searched a lot about this topic on whole internet but i did not find anything relevant.
My goal is that my web app (UI builded in jQuery mobile) can print to bluetooth mobile printer like Zebra RW series… I know aware existence of Phonegap and Zebra SDK but is there simpler way to enable print page directly from Safari or Android browser.
Thanks !
To answer your question, No. Android is more then capable of being able to connect to a RW via bluetooth. However, Apple in their infinite wisdom decided that if you wanted to be able to do bluetooth for something other then the media protocol, you needed to license their special implementation of bluetooth. So no printer can pair with an Apple device.
You are running into a hard(but interesting) problem. A browser doesn’t have the ability to initiate communication to a bluetooth device directly.
I hope this helps! Good luck!
