Depends on the phone
Depends on your phone. I can print from iPhone to a wireless printer, but the trick is having a printer that has wireless capabilities. (I buy old printers, so mine aren't wireless-networked).
Can you tell us more about your phone's model?

Search for wireless print server adapter. You can turn and old printer into wireless by adding one

Listen to Jessica
Even if the phone doesn't really have printing capabilities, she'll soon have it printing out your docs and fixing a six course meal for you, followed by an after-dinner drink. Give her enough time, and she'll have it making the presentation to the borrower, too.

If you have a Brother, there is an app for that...

The printer does not have to be wireless, but would need to be connected to a computer that is powered on.

Not a droid user BUT
I use iPhone for my phone service, but just recently added an android tablet to the family. Still learning my way around the android platform.
I did a quick search and found a few options,
You can download an app called "printershare."
You can also "print to retail" which will basically send your print job to the nearest copy center. (FedexKinkos).
For Samsung Android users, "Samsung MobilePrint" is a printer/scanner app.

Thank you all..
I downloaded the "printershare" app and used my cell this morning to ship the first set of docs to my HP printer. Docs downloaded and printed correctly.
Thank you Jessica for your time in checking the info to get this new feature in my cell. It'll be of big help to me..

I'm so glad it worked!
I'm going to add the same thing on my tablet, switching from Windows and Apple to Android has taken me lots of time--much longer than I expected. (Though I really only use the tablet as a Netflix and Facebook machine).

I use a Samsung Galaxy S and love it. I downloaded a Printshare App and the Brother Wireless App along with the HP Wireless App. My phone prints fine to either printer.
