I know two ways to get prints of your tablet paintings.
First you can upload your paintings to a service that prints low resolution files of about 72 ppi and above. Secondly, you can use a resizing program to increase the resolution and size. There are two sites that will print your paintings straight off your tablet: Fine Art America and Instaprints.
They started offering this service for Instagram photos, but it also works fine for tablet paintings. Two resizing programs that work well are Photozoom Pro 6 and Perfect Resize 9. They work fine with resizing paintings that are 1000 pixels and up. This is the program that I use to enlarge my Samsung Galaxy Note tablet paintings and it works great. Here is another program for resizing your tablet pictures.
I think the tablet debate probably boils down to personal preference. Some artists prefer a big screen and some don't mind smaller screens. Mobile tablets are not as big as Wacom Cintiqs or any of the Cintiq alternatives which go up to 27 inches. The mobile tablets go up to about 13 inches. This sort of translates into the traditional painting world in that some artists like to paint on large canvases and others (like me) prefer smaller canvases.
Another factor for Android and IOS is how well they work with Windows programs. A lot of Photoshop users want compatible files with layers capability. This is a factor if you are not using your mobile tablets as stand alone devices for creating your artwork. I would say that Windows tablets are a good mobile solution for these artists. It is, however, perfectly feasible to create a finished piece of artwork with just the digital painting tablet apps on IOS or Android.
There are also lots of photo editing apps on Android and IOS that can give filter or photobashing effects like you get in Photoshop. It just boils down to what people are used to in their workflow. Mobile tablets are relatively new compared to desktop computer tablets and lots of people are used to desktop workflows. Windows systems are also still more powerful than IOS and Android systems at this point.
