Since October 2011, any iPhone or iPad on my network can use native iOS functionality, to print to those same old printers, without needing any 3rd party Apps on the iPad/iPhone. My family has already enjoyed using networked printers and USB printers in my home for years. What could FingerPrint running as a Windows service mean, to you?
