Abstract
A printing method for printing a file stored in an e-book connecting the e-book and a printer to a network, where the e-book sends a message to find the printer. The printer responds to the broadcasting message to establish connection between the e-book and the printer. The method further includes sending a printing request to the printer by the e-book, and determining whether the file is a format which the printer can directly print. If the file is not a format can be identified by the printer, the e-book decodes the file to a format can be identified by the printer, and uploads to the printer. Then, the printer prints the decoded file.
