Printing directly from my android

[Brjshprasad]

When the printer is attached directly to the modem without any desktop/Laptop in between other laptops on the same wi fi network recognise it as a network printer at ip address \\http://192.168.1.1/631/hp.Apps such as printershare allow my android to send print command to a network printer attached to my desktop to which the printer should be connected but that requires the desktop to be continuously switched on. .There must be some tweak in the system to allow the print command to be send directly to the modem which sends it to the printer..like it does when i send a command from my laptops.

There is a command for it, I just don't know it out of my head.
What the best thing to do though is just directly connect to wireless(if you have that).

Printershare allows any Android device to print directly to a network-connected printer, no need for any PC to be powered on. The only instance where that would be required is when your printer is only directly connected to that PC, and after that is SHARED on the network. In that case the printer is only seen by other networked devices IF the host PC is on. I use Printershare all the time.
You need to select a nearby WIFI printer option in the app's settings, then select your printer.
