How to Print Photos from iPhone

Currently, you can print photos from the iPhone via the Photo app, a computer, and a photo printing app. Whichever the way you choose to use, we will patiently explain how to do it.

Part 1. How to Print Photos from iPhone via Photo App

This way applies to people who own a printer that supports Apple's "AirPrint." If you have owned a printer, go to check whether it is AirPrint-enabled.
