This is weird, when you go to settings on the print option in gallery, the options are USB (pictbridge), Memory Card (probably print to file, not tried it!), Bluetooth (works) and WLAN, however WLAN never works, whenever search for printers all it looks for is bluetooth, which is frustrating 😞

Whats going on?

What/which (remote) printing protocol(s) does the printer on the WLAN support?

Wi-Fi does not specify any kind of printing protocol. So, whatever the printer (through separate server or built-in), must be configured to support, e.g., Windows printing protocols, UNIX/Linux printing protocols, UPnP, & whatever there are available.

I haven't tried printing from a N95, but I suspect it needs UPnP (Universal Plug & Play) support from the printer (as opposed to Windows or UNIX/Linux printing support).
