remarkable_printer VS rmfakecloud

Although RCU has a virtual printer, for printing from any system application, this can also be accomplished by installing evidlo/remarkable_printer. It is a fantastic piece of software that turns your tablet into a network printer, so you don't have to rely on reMarkable's limited and flaky plugins.

There is evidlo/remarkable_print, too, which gets installed to the tablet and makes it act as a network printer.

I use this: https://github.com/Evidlo/remarkable_printer

Print to rM - I love using this, such as when I need to read a pdf for a class, documentation, or even a news article. Just set it up depending on your OS, and then print from browser/file explorer or whatever program, to your rM. You can find it here.

This works well. All you need to do is get something in PDF or PNG format then "print to reMarkable". Literally takes like 2-3 seconds on average, maybe 10 seconds if laggy network.

printing to my reMarkable

A very creatively done workflow for sure. A tip I would perhaps use, permitting your work computer allows it is Print to reMarkable. I haven't set it up as I use rM Cloud but it does look pretty unobtrusive and promising. Seems more like you're just adding a bog standard printer to your list than any extra software.

Evidlo/remarkable_print is a great piece of software that lets you print directly from Windows to the reMarkable. It installs to the reMarkable, so it's not a plugin installed in the PC, so the tablet will appear as a regular printer on your network and there is zero extra software required on any PC. You can print to the tablet from any operating system, from any program.

I use this extension https://github.com/Evidlo/remarkable_printer which let me print documents to RM. I’ve added a printer to my work PC and print Word-documents to read.

You can upload/download files from the cloud with rMAPI. You can also use rmFakeCloud to host your own sync cloud, so the files just go to your own computer/server. This works with rMAPI as well.

There's also a sync server you can selfhost, with a little bit of added effort: https://github.com/ddvk/rmfakecloud

Device is a remarkable2, its synced via https://github.com/ddvk/rmfakecloud, and handwritting recognition / org-export using tesseract and a small rust wrapper

Definitely not low-tech, but I just can't go back to paper. Its nice being able to search up what were your todo's on a certain date and keep digital track of what you missed :)

I don’t use Remarkable’s cloud! I run rmfakecloud inside a Docker container.

Might be good to clarify then or provide an example with https://github.com/ddvk/rmfakecloud because with mention or RPi and Docker I assumed, and I imagined other would too, there would be no official RM cloud requirement.

You can get around this if you're willing to learn and put in the effort. Install Toltec and you can install rmfakecloud on your own server to sync with. Toltec will also allow you to install a bunch of other stuff and makes the device much more useful. I would get rid of mine if these hacks weren't available.

That doesn't sync with the main UI though, I'm not sure what options exist for that. You could run your own rmcloud perhaps: https://github.com/ddvk/rmfakecloud (I haven't tried yet)
