New in iOS 9: Native print preview
I don't often use AirPrint to print from my iPad or iPhone, but occasionally I find the need to do so. One of the things that's always bugged me about printing from my iPad is the lack of any sort of print preview.
Prior to iOS 9, if you wanted to print directly from the native iOS share sheet, you pretty much had to go into the whole ordeal blind, as you weren't provided with a print preview. With iOS 9, things have changed. You'll now find a native print preview option whenever you invoke the printing dialogue from the native share sheet.

How to integrate Google Cloud Print natively within iOS
If you ever listen to our Let's Talk iOS podcast, you're probably keenly aware of my paperless lifestyle. As a huge Evernote proponent, I make it a habit of avoiding hoarding lots of unnecessary papers. But every now and then, even I am forced to print out a document or two. It happens just rarely enough to make it extremely annoying, and my annoyance is compounded by the fact I don't own an AirPrint compatible printer.
As someone who is slowly integrating their way back into the Google ecosystem, I decided to give Google's Cloud Print service a try. Google Cloud Print is basically the Google equivalent of AirPrint with some notable differences here and there. But for all intents and purposes, people use Google Cloud Print for the same reason that people use AirPrint—they want to print wirelessly from a wirelessly connected device.
It goes without saying that Google Cloud Print support is a feature that hasn't been, and probably never will be, included in stock iOS. But that's okay, because there is a jailbreak tweak that will allow you to just that. Check inside for the full video walkthrough.
Google Drive refreshed with multi-accounts, single sign-on and wireless printing
In terms of feature additions, it's been a quiet period for the Google Drive iOS app after a major visual makeover two months ago brought the software in line with its Android counterpart. But the team hasn't been standing still. In a small but sweet update Thursday, the app has finally gained a much requested new feature - support for multiple Google Accounts - as well as the ability to print your documents wirelessly via either Apple's AirPrint or Google's Cloud Print protocol.
