Apple wants you to replace your printer with an iPad Pro.

In the company’s latest ad touting the iPad Pro as the perfect laptop replacement, Apple takes aim at the hassles of having to use a printer.

Created in the same vein as Apple’s last batch of iPad Pro commercials, the new ad features a real tweet complaining about having to print personal stuff at work. Apple’s solution is simple: get an iPad.

No More Printing

Real problems… answered. You wouldn’t have to print anymore, if your computer was an iPad Pro.

During Apple’s annual shareholders meeting today, Tim Cook reiterated the company’s belief that the iPad is great replacement for laptops. However, Cook did say that he doesn’t think the iPad will ever merge with the Mac because the Mac does so much more.

Apple is expected to reveal new iPads at an event in March. New products could include a 10-inch iPad with slimmer bezels, as well as a new iPad mini and updated 12.9-inch iPad Pro.

    laughable at best, you NEED a printer, you don’t need an iPad.

    Card and board games are hard to prototype and play readily and rapidly on iPads, not to mention costs.

    Plus, computers/devices aren’t as long-term for “safe” storage of important legal paperwork, sadly.
