Normally, we can use the following two ways to get messages printed: taking screenshots or copying and saving the text content as a document.

Way 1: Print iPhone Text Messages Through Screenshots

You can take screenshots of all text messages and print the image files. The steps are as following:

1. Open the Messages app on your iPhone and open the text messages that you want to print.
2. With the message(s) that you want to print visible, press the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time. If you don't have a Home button, instead press the Side button on the right side and the Volume Up button at the same time to take the screenshot. If your sound is on you'll hear the camera photo taken sound as you take the screenshot.
3. Tap the thumbnail of the screenshots in the lower-left corner of your screen, or open the Photos app and open the screenshot photo.
4. Tap the up arrow button and then tap Print to print the screenshot of messages directly from your iPhone. Or you can save the screenshot images to your computer and print it later.

Way 2: Copy Text and Email It via Mail App on iPhone

If the content of the message is not large, you can apply this method.

1. Open the text message app on your iPhone. Choose a conversation, find a message you want to print out, press and hold it until you see a “Copy/More” dialogue. Then tap on Copy.
2. Open the Mail app on your iPhone. Paste the copied text into the New Message field, enter your email address, and push the Send button.
3. Open the mail on your computer. Open the mail and choose the print option. Then select a connected printer and start printing. That’s super simple!

Taking screenshots or copying and pasting message looks very easy because they do not require any other apps. But both ways are also a bit tedious if we want to print a large number of messages since we need to take screenshots or copy and paste messages one by one.
