Brother Print Service Plugin lets your print to your Wi-Fi-enabled Brother printer from any Android smartphone or tablet.
If you have a network-connected Brother printer, then you can access it from Android smartphones, tablets and other devices using the Brother Print Service Plugin. Note that this is a plugin for the core Android print service. There are other apps that provide features on a system-wide basis. This plugin is intended to ensure you have access to the advanced features your Brother printer supports.
Note that this isn’t an app you use directly, generally. You’ll download it and activate, and then, everything it does will be done behind the scenes. It actually integrates with all of the other apps and services that support print or share. For instance, print a webpage from your favorite web browser, select your Brother printer, and then, this app will kick in to ensure that occurs properly.
The Brother Print Service Plugin supports a wide range of options you can select to customize your prints. You can choose the number of copies, the paper size, color or mono, orientation, media type and so forth. Also, be aware that if you want a more elaborate printing platform for your printer, Brother also provides a standalone print app that can help with that.
The Brother Print Service Plugin does require at least Android 5.0, and it simply won’t run on devices that can’t support it unfortunately. Also, BPSP does require activation once installed. It’s only a minor inconvenience, but the user not aware of it may be left to wonder what the problem is. You can either activate through the provided notification or in the Printing section of the Android settings.
