Print function is not yet native to the WM platform and you need to add an app in order to get it. So Canon is correct; they have no driver for WM for any of their printers. HP Mobile Printing (freebie) and Westtek JetCET both support IR printing and both support the standard Canons (I have used JetCET and my BJC-85 without a problem). You will not have the page control you have on a PC because the drivers are pretty vanilla. Also, most 3rd-party apps are not supported. You will be able to print from Pocket Word, Pocket Excel, Contacts, Inbox, Adobe Reader, and the Westtek ClearVue viewers (JetCET does not yet directly support Adobe Reader). Both support IR, bluetooth, and network connections; JetCET also supports USB connections on those PPCs models that have USB host functionality. Because of the wider range of apps supported directly from the PPC without needing a desktop go-between, these two are my first choices.
