With the Cloud Print Beta app, you are able to print files from your Xoom tablet to your printer. The app support for file types: pdf,jpg,jpeg,docx,ods,xls,xlsx,ppt,odp,txt,doc,xps
To get started printing, first connect to the internet through a laptop or PC . If you have a HP E-Print enabled printer, you don't need a computer. I tried Cloud Print BETA a few weeks ago and it worked quite well.

Xoom cannot obtain ip address
I could connect the Motorola Xoom tablet to my Belkin router and wifi works fine. Then around the time Froyo came out, Xoom cannot obtain ip address from my Belkin route.
I have changed all the security settings in my router and rooted all devices, but Xoom just says "scanning" then "Obtaining IP address of my router" and then disconnects.
Try the following steps for fixing the issue
1. Make sure you have no settings from prior to Froyo.
2. Restore your router to default and try again
3. Clear cache on the tablet.

Run Android Apps in Full Screen on Xoom
Most of the Android Apps available in the market were written to be used on the small screens of the Phone, but them may not fit the Xoom's larger screen.
Spare Parts is a Android app that allows you to enable some hidden settings on the Xoom. To resize apps in fullscreen mode on the Xoom, open the application, scroll down, disable Compatibility and then reboot the tablet.

Xoom transfer files to Ubuntu
Yesterday I got my WiFi Xoom tablet. I want to transfer files, but just have a computer running LInux, without Windows.
I get wifi file explorer and run it. The app gives me the IP and port I need to connect in the browser, however the browser isn't working.
Now I can't find a way to get Xoom to mount in Ubuntu. Is that an ftp client app for Xoom so I can transfer files directly from it?

Movies available in Android Market
After the 3.1 update, the movies are now available in the Android Market. You are able to purchase movie rental via your Xoom tablet running Android 3.1,.
You have 30 days to watch the movie. But once you press play, you have 24 hours to complete watching. And I find that there are lots of new and different tittles available in HD.

ActiveX for motorola xoom on remote web workplace
When I tried to log into my computer remotely with my motorola Xoom tablet using IE, Internet explorer said I needed activex controls? How can I getthe Xoom to run ActiveX?
ActiveX controls are purpose-built programs designed to run natively within a container, like Internet Explorer, on Windows computers. VPN & RDP rather better than activeX. The xoom has a built-in VPN and RDP is available to you.

Starting Fastboot Protocol Support on WiFi Xoom
I just rooted my Xoom tablet yesterday . I downloaded the one-click root files and had the Xoom in USB debugging mode. After a very tense few minutes, WiFi Xoom is stuck in the Dual Core screen with "Starting Fastboot protocol support".
When I finally looked at my PC screen, I saw that I needed to click "next." It's a pretty foolproof process.
