Today wireless is very popular technology that is giving shape to more convenient and cost-effective world. Wireless printing using mobile devices is gaining popularity and this paper aims to address this particular functionality from Android Application. The Raspberry Pi is a low cost single-board computer which has recently become very popular. In this paper we showcase our attempt at building a low cost stand-alone device which transmits data using the Raspberry Pi with WI-FI and has a resistive touch screen display providing a user interface
