Hp cloudprint is a service developed by computer company hewlett-packard in association with research in motion (rim), the developer of the blackberry smartphone. It is web-based, which means all you need to have in order to access hp cloudprint is a computer, or in some cases, a blackberry phone. Using hp cloudprint is very easy, and the service makes it a lot more convenient for us to get our job done even when we are on the go. So far, hp cloudprint is only available in the united states, in canada, the united kingdom and europe. Cloudprint is a technology that will allow users to save a file on the hp service/site, and then recover it form anywhere to print the same.

The real power of cloudprint is that it works on all printers – even existing printers.
