Does anyone know of an app similar to Printopia, that runs on the Windows OS?
Yesterday, when I took husband to a doctor's appointment his doctor mentioned that his daughter had given him an iPad for his birthday. Dr G knows I am a Mac user, and have an iPad. He is just getting to know the included apps. I though I would put together a list of recommendations for him to try. He is not a heavy computer user on a personal level and seems fairly clueless about iPad apps.

Thanks Tony. I did find a few things when I googled, but like the above program, they require a fair amount of fussing with settings to get printing working. Although he uses a computer Dr G refers to himself as a luddite. He carries a very simple cell phone and a beeper.
He is a bit different for a member of the medical profession. He answers his own phone at the office, and gives his patients his home phone number.
I posted a similar thread over on TechRadar, but don't expect much in the way of a reply. Although a lot of PC users have iPods and iPhones they seem to detest the iPad.
Think I will tell him if he has one of the (listed) HP printers he can use AirPrint. Otherwise, he can email stuff to himself or use DropBox, and print from his desktop computer. I already have DropBox and 1Password in the list of suggested apps.
