Can i use any wireless printer when using air express

can i use any wireless printer when using air express

If you are looking for a new printer, any wireless model will work with the AirPort Express.
But, since you indicate that you have an iPad, you would want to make sure that the printer you choose is AirPrint compatible. This way, you will be able to print from your iPad....if you need that function.
See this Apple support document for info on AirPrint and compatible models.

  • How do i get my hp pavillion dm1 to print on my wireless printer when using t-mobile usb broadband

    how do i get my hp pavillion dm1 to print on my wireless printer when using t-obile usb external broadband

    Mama Shirley, sounds like you are looking for information on networking your printer. I have to unfortunately inform you that you are not going to likely be able to do that with a mobile hotspot (which appears to be your source of broadband). This is because that card provides your devices with a roaming IP address which is subject to change, because of this it cannot create a stable network for the printer to communicate across.
    My recommendation would be to purchase a router and connect the printer through that router. As a note you do NOT have to connect the router to broadband to create a network for your devices. It will simply provide you with an internal network for your devices. 
    Let me know if this is the information you are looking for or if there is still more assistance I can offer.

    PS I hope you are having a lovely week and that the weather is as wonderful where you are as it is here! 

  • HT5569 How do I print using a wireless printer when I'm using wifi for Internet at the same time

    I can't figure out how to print via wifi when I'm using wifi for Internet at the same time please help

    You need to have your printer & ipad connected to the same wifi router.  ( This would be my best guess. )

  • Can I set up my iPad to use my wireless printer now that I use Windows 8 Pro on my home network. I moved from Vista a short while ago. thanks

    Can someone explain how I go about setting up my iPad 2 to use a wireless printer as an airprinter - I had the thing working perfectly under Vista, however it all seems so much more reluctant under Windows 8 Pro.
    I'm in the UK, but that doesn't make me a bad person ...
    Thanks

    This is not really an appropriate question for this forum - it's for the specific Apple product called Apple Remote Desktop which is for managing networked Macs - but you forward the ports to the iMac's internal IP address, the one assigned to it via the Airport (setting a static IP address usually is better, though, since it won't change when you restart the Mac). This may be of help:

  • I bought an unlocked iphone 5 with 32mb especially so I could use any wireless carrier that I wanted to.  Why does apple hold me prisoner to use only the carriers that apple wants?????  The only thing I can't do is send and receive picture messaging.

    I specifically bought and paid for an unlocked iphone 5 from APPLE so that I could use any wireless carrier I wanted to.  I have been paying ATT WAYYY too much money the last 20 years.  But for some reason APPLE wants to keep me from using any wireless carrier - and I can only use the carriers that APPLE will let me.  WHY????  I paid my money!!  I expected a lot more than I got.  The only thing I can't do is send or received picture messages, but it makes me so Mad that I can';t do that!!!

    If you bought an unlocked iPhone then it will work with any carrier but will work only under the restrictions or requirements the carrier sets for its customers.  Apple has nothing to do with that.  You are describing a problem of restricted access created by the carrer.  If you cannot carry out the functions you want, talk to the carrier and see what limits they are placing on you.  An unlocked iPhone is fully capable of all functions the carrer allows.

  • I want to get a web cam for the mini so I can use face time. I asked at the Apple store and they said I could use any camera.  When I look at the cameras on Amazon they seem to all be Windows based so I am confused.  Any suggestions?

    We've used the Logitech quickcam Vision Pro for Mac on our mini, with 10.6, and ichat, which has worked well. Looks like it's discontinued, however, a number of sellers on ebay are selling them new for $60-$70.

  • The cyan color won't print when using our HP Pro 6500 Officejet printer

    the cyan color won't print when using our HP Pro 6500 Officejet printer.  Can I get help with this?

    This doesn't make sense. The printer is exhibiting behavior noticed when a network printer is connected to a laptop while the laptop is connected to a VPN. But in this case, neither the printer is connected on a network, not is the laptop connected to a VPN per se.
    Are you sure all the latest drivers for your laptop have been installed? That's pretty much the only thing I can think of right now.

  • What is the best wireless printer to use with an IPad Air and IPhone?

    What is the best wireless printer to use with an IPad Air and IPhone that will print both text and photos?  Also, is the separate keyboard available for the IPad Air, yet?

    Best is relative. Different people like different things. I have an epson that I like. I'd look through a site like Best Buy and compare reviews for Air Print enabled printers.
    as to the keyboard, I know Zagg has one and I think there are other manufacturers that have keyboards for the Air. As far as I know, pretty much any bluetooth keyboard will work, but if you want a case then you'd need to get a specific one.
