[ale] Android/Tablet printing

[Jim Kinney]

looks like the ALL use a chrome browser to print. I looked at several
other printer apps from google play and they all seem to be the same:
keep a chrome browser running on a windows machine and you can forward
print jobs to it from your android device.

that stinks

very very stinks

James P. Kinney III

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
