Some things just go together:
- Bat & Ball
- Peanut Butter & Jelly
- Bacon & Eggs
- Bread & Butter
- Table & Chair
- Bees & Honey
- Comb & Hair
- Lock & Keys
What about personal computers and printers? Well, as long as you are talking desktop computers sure, everybody has a printer. And I believe that everyone who has a Windows Mobile device probably also has a printer. But do they “go together”? Probably not.
How can we bring these two together?

It is absolutely free to use the CloudPrint service. How you get charged for SMS messages is between you and your mobile phone carrier.
- How do I print Web pages from my phone with SMS?
To print a Web page from your mobile phone, you can SMS the URL to +44 77814 88791. The URL should be in the body of the message. Recipients will receive a document code, just like if the Web page was printed from the PC virtual print driver.
