With other PDF documents, you’ll just need to hope that the text is sufficiently big that you can read it on the small Fire screen. In this case, it’s smarter to go ahead and buy the Kindle book version for $7.99. Too small, in fact, to be able to comfortably read, even if you zoom in (because the text doesn’t reflow). However, as you can see, the text is pretty darn small. Our PDF file is “Life_of_Pi_(2001).pdf”, so I’ll simply tap it to read the book: Instead you need to tap on “Docs”, which will reveal all the PDF files you have on the Kindle Fire: Select the menu icon (three vertical dots) for the item or web page that you want to print, and then select Print. Tap on “Books”, however, and you won’t find the new PDF. If you're printing for the first time, you'll need to Add a Printer to Your Fire Tablet.Make sure that your printer is turned on and connected to Wi-Fi.

With that in place, plugging in the Kindle produces the expected Windows prompt:Īs highlighted, you’ll want to just select “Open folder to view files”, which will produce a set of folders that might be quite a bit more than you’re expecting:
HOW TO PRINT FROM KINDLE FIRE TABLET DRIVERS
To get started, I have a PDF version of the book Life of Pi on my Windows 7 desktop and have installed the drivers necessary for the Kindle to show up as a device on my Win7 laptop. Worse, there’s no way to scale or reflow the PDF content to make it read more easily on the screen. The Amazon Kindle does have the ability to let you read PDF files, with some limitations, but the problem is that it’s a bit hard to figure out because even if you think that the PDF file you’re copying is an ebook, it’s not considered to be a Book for the system.
