Printy now lets you choose exactly which pages to print and fit more pages on each sheet.

New in Release 3

  • Pages: all pages, a list such as 1, 3–5, odd pages or even pages.
  • Layouts: one page, two pages side by side, or four pages in a grid.
  • Preview: see the actual assembled sheet, original page numbers and any blank spaces before printing.
  • Reverse order: start with the last selected page; copies remain collated.
  • Sheet counts: the print button and job progress count physical sheets.

Open Print a file → choose your PDF → Layout → 2 pages side by side. Landscape is selected automatically. The controls apply in Printy's own preview; Android's native dialog continues to use its own page choices.

The owner reports successful printing with Release 2 on the Epson L130 / Airtel ZTE ZXHN F670L setup. Release 3 keeps its transport and encoder. The new layouts still need a physical print check; other model profiles remain experimental. These are single-sided layouts, not folded booklets or automatic duplex.

Install

Download printy-0.2.0-debug.apk. It uses the same application ID and signing certificate as Releases 1 and 2, with version code 3, so you can install it over the previous version and retain saved printers. The .sha256 asset identifies the APK.

This is a debug-signed development build for Android 8.0+. Free and open source under GPL-2.0-or-later, with no ads, analytics, subscriptions or watermarks.

Verified: 33 JVM tests and 6 Android API 35 rendering tests passed, lint reports no errors, and the APK signature matches the earlier releases. Successful CI run.

See the repository's verification notes for software checks and remaining hardware testing.
