Print Photo directly from Emby?

[Teredactle 37]

Is there a way tp print a photo directly from Emby, to my local printer on the network I am on currently, or to a usb connected printer to my laptop? I haven't seen any posts on this ask - perhaps there is a 3rd party plugin or something?

Thanks

HI, there is currently no way to do this from within Emby.

Actually if I run Emby in a browser, view the specific photo, I can then print it and it turns out like I it would if I opened the **photo in a photo editor.

My application/question about this is to print out colouring pages (library of all JPG photos) directly from my phone/tablet - i.e. we search for topic term (i.e. mermaid), it returns a bunch, they choose, I select it and print it to the network printer.

Working as good as I need it to work.

Certainly wouldn't work for printing actual photos, bur it would be nice if the mobile app would allow you to share it to a photos app to print from though!

I’ve tried printing straight from Emby before and didn’t find a built-in way for photos, at least not easily. What worked for me was saving the photo locally first, then printing from my laptop. For quick label or barcode printing, I once got supplies from www.omegabrand.com—great quality and easy to use for stuff connected directly to the laptop or network.

Yes, saving and printing is fine, but it's not practical if I want to print 10. I can print if I'm connected to Emby via browser, so this works for me just fine!
