How to Print Contact List from iPhone with iCloud

Apart from using a third-party tool, this post also featured steps on how to print out contacts from an iPhone with iCloud! iCloud lets users print out their contacts directly on its website version. However, this will only work if you have backed up/synced your iPhone’s contact list to iCloud. If you did, then expect that there’s a possibility you might get duplicated contacts, and the process of syncing contacts from your iPhone to the iCloud website takes a lot of time. Now, if you don’t mind those drawbacks, then here are the steps on how to print out contacts from an iPhone with iCloud:

Step 1Ensure that you have synced your iPhone to iCloud. Then, on your computer’s browser, access the iCloud official website and sign in to your Apple ID and passcode. After that, on the iCloud’s list of apps, click the "Contacts" application.

Step 2Next, from the list of contacts on the right, select the specific contacts you wish to print or select all of them by ticking the "Select all" button. After that, tick the "Settings" button with the "Gear" icon on the lower left section of the tool and select the "Print" option.

Use iTunes Sync to Print Contact List from iPhone

Aside from iCloud, this post also featured simple steps on how to print a contact list from an iPhone using iTunes. The same goes for iCloud; iTunes lets users download and print their iPhone’s contact list.

In that case, this method only works on Windows computers. Now, how to print a contact list from an iPhone using iTunes? Here are the steps you must follow:

Step 1Link your iPhone to the computer using your charger’s cable. Next, launch the current version of iTunes and click the "device" icon. Then, tick the "Info" tab on the left pane, click the "Sync Contacts with" checkbox, and select the "Windows Contacts" on the dropdown list.

Step 2After that, choose between "All contacts" and "Selected groups" according to your needs and tick the "Sync" button on the bottom right corner. Then, wait for iTunes to initiate the syncing process.

Step 3Once the syncing process is done, head to your computer’s "Start" menu, go to the "Contacts" folder, and click the "Export" button at the top right corner. Then, select the "CSV (Comma Separated Values)" option and tick the "Export" button!

Step 4Once the exporting process is done, you can print the CSV file containing your iPhone contact lists using your printer. And there you go! Those are the simple steps on how to print a contact list from an iPhone through the iTunes sync option.

If that’s okay with you, here are the steps on how to print contacts from an iPhone without iCloud and iTunes using Gmail.

Step 1Run the Settings app on your iPhone, tap the "Contacts" button, and select the "Account" option. Then, tap the "Add Account" button and perform the on-screen instructions to include your Gmail account.
