Overview

In the developing world, paper is a precious resource, so children store their work on their laptops rather than print it out.

Print using another device

Documents can be saved to a USB flash drive and printed from another computer.

CUPS

Software to enable printing will be added sometime in 2008 with a software upgrade that supports the standard CUPS / IPP protocols.

You can add network printing yourself, in the meantime, if you are in a real pinch and somewhat technically inclined.
