Air Print Questions

Will Air-print be available for other types of wireless printers soon?
Why Is Air-Print only for HP Printers? Is It a deal Apple have with HP or Is the software used just not able to work with other printers?

If you have a Windows laptop, the following discussion thread has a very simple solution that will allow AirPrint to work with almost any wireless printer, and not just the limited list provided. And it works fantastic.

Actually that solution will work on any Wondows computer, not just laptops as long as you have a wireless network.

IPAD Air Printer Question?

I have an iPAD Air and I received a Canon PIXMA iP100 printer for Christmas. Is there a way to make it work with the iPAD Air and how?

The Canon Pixma iP100 is not listed as an AirPrint compatible printer, but you can still maybe have a chance to print to it remotely.
First, you can use an app like Printopia as a print server running on a computer charing the printer on the local network.
Second, you can search the app store for Canon bcause they may have an app that can provide some limited printing functionality from your iPad.

I have a question in iOS Air Print feature.

Hi,
Good day
I have a question in iOS Air Print feature.
I have Fuji Xerox DocuCentre-IVC2263 in my company and i need to print document from the iOS device to this Fuji Xerox.
Fuji Xerox is connect with Ethernet cable.
So, if i buy Apple Airport Express, can i print message on Apple Mail app and document on Apple Pages app ?
Note: I download FX Print Utilitie from App Store, This app can print only PDF, Webpage, picture. It's can't print message from Apple Mail app (attachment also), can't print document from Apple Pages app.
Thanks

To print directly from an iOS device, the printer must support AirPrint. Just connecting a printer to an AirPort Express base station (either by USB or Ethernet) will not, in itself, make the printer AirPrint ready.

HP laserjet pro M1536dnf wireless setup to use Air print

Since I trying to print from my new Ipad Air, excuse my newbie networking printing questions!
This what I know so far:
1. I understand my HP laserjet pro M1536dnf is 'not' a WiFi printer.
2. As per HP Support and the Apple Support web sites, my HP laserjet pro M1536dnf is 'Air Print' enabled. I guess a certain firmware update must of incorporated the Air Print capabilty!
3. As per HP Support web site, I currently have the latest firmware installed ( 20130815 ).
Note: On my Config Report, it shows the status for both IPv4 and IPv6 as 'Network Cable Disconnected '. I have Show IP address as enabled.
3. My home setup has the cable internet going from my cable modem to my wireless Linkys E3200 router via coaxial cable. From my router to my computer is wired via the Ethernet cable. My HP Laserjet 1536dnf printer is wired to my computer via USB cable.
Questions:
1. Going from I seen and read on on-line, is correct to say 'I will have to change my Ethernet cable going from the router to the computer and change it to from the router to the printer's Ethernet port?
2. Will I have to remove the USB from Printer to the computer?
3. By removing the USB cable between the printer and the computer, how would my computer communicate to the printer to perform a print job? Unless, I'm guessing, I add another Ethernet cable between the router and my computer's ethernet port!
4. Any other tips, that I might have missed?

HP Photosmart 7520 all in one showing Air Print Macbook Pro Maverick 10.9.4

At one point I did not have Air Print showing beside printer in system preferences. Printer and scanning is working fine, but I was told by someone on this message board that Air Print should not show. How do I remove Air Print. I have a Macbook Pro Maverick 10.9.4. HP Scan version 4.1.1. I did an update earlier this year and the Air Print was not there. Did not see board for Mac to choose for issue. Thanks for your help.

Good morning, happy Friday @ladybugs48
I understand you are seeing AirPrint next to your printer, meaning you are currently using the AirPrint driver and not the HP driver. I can help you change this. Please complete the steps below;
Reset Printing System
Click the Apple icon (   ), and then click System Preferences.
In the Hardware section, click Print & Fax/Scan. The Print & Fax/Scan dialog box opens.
Right-click (or  Ctrl  +click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system…
Click OK to confirm the reset.
Type the correct Name and Password.
Click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows no printer selected
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
When you add the printer, to ensure you are using the HP driver, not the AirPrint driver use the steps below;
Select Add Other Printer or Scanner
Select the printer you are adding and next to 'Use' you can select the printer driver
Please let me know if this resolves the issue. Thanks.

Don't know how to use the air print with my ipads.

i just bought an mg3222 printer and i don't know how to figure out how to use air print with my ipad and ipad minis. Can anybody help??? Thanks

Hello.
In order to use the printer with your iOS devices, please make sure that the units are all connected to the same WI-Fi router. Once this has been done you should be able to print.
The initial Wi-Fi setup of the MG3222 would have to be done from a compatible Windows or Mac OSX computer.
If additional assistance is needed, feel free to call us at 1-800-OKCANON.

Can I use air print withoug wireless router?

Is there a way to set up the HP envy 110a for Air print without a wireless router? Perhaps through a website? Lost.
This question was solved.

Hello f5trouble,
You cannot use AirPrint without being connected to a network. If you do not have a wireless network, you can try connecting the printer and iOS device through an AdHoc connection. To do this, turn on the wireless. When you enable the wireless on the printer without connecting it to a network, it will start to broadcast its own network, ussualy called HPSETUP. Next you need to connect the iOS device to the network the printer is broadcasting. Once you have the iOS device and the printer connected via AdHoc, follow the normal steps to AirPrint and it should print. I do not recomend setting up the printer and iOS device on an AdHoc connection, because it will automatically stop broadcasting after an hour, and you will have to reconnect them each time you want to use it.

Hope, this afternoon when i reboot my Phone.. and crash ! lol
This times got pictures of what i did exactly ! Sorry it's in French ;) Step 1 : After a reboot, i open Spotify and obtain this, I had never seen this before last week ! Usual it connects me at phone's start.. (Android widget of Spotify didn't work too after reboot, i need to open the application directly) Step 2 : i click on "Connection" and he asks me for the desactivation of the Offline Mode => this message appears twice. I need to quit Spotify and restart it to connect successfully. Step 3 : when i look in my "Playlists", the "Dub.Inc" one is not synced whereas before the reboot it was ! And proof in step 4.. Step 4 : when i look in "Parameters" of applications, i see this.. So i do not understand lol :p My playlist is here, in Exceptionnal quality. So as this bug was crazy, i tested on my ipod touch 4 with another version of Spotify. I synced it at the same moment as the Android. You see that after the reboot, playlist is always here ! It's not my account but other thing.. I've got a 64 GO memory card µSD maybe due to that ?! Card is here since one year and no problem detected on it. If someone can help, you'll welcome :)

HT4356 Any ideas if you have an hp photosmart 6180 printer you can use air print?

Two questions
1. Can you use a HP Photosmart 6180 as an air print printer.
2. How can you use an iPad with a projector to present presentations using key note heard people say you can use an iPhone 4s to control the iPad but not sure how.

For printing see:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/16608170#16608170
Also just Google for airprint to HP Photosmart 6180

Hey ronniefai,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are receiving a prompt that your printer is offline. This may be due to a printing job that is currently in the queue. Are you able to see the print summary when following these steps?:
Viewing the Print Summary
You can view the Print Summary by double-tapping the Home button and swiping to the right to reveal Printer Center. Then tap Print Center.
Note: Print Center is available only while printing is in progress.

If so, see if you can cancel the job. If not, what happens when you re-connect to the network that the printer is on?
Thanks,

Trying to airprint from Ipad2 with a new 6510. message frequently no air printer found- help

HP 6510; error message-1; About 10% of the time the print works on the 1st try. More frequently it's an agonizing process. Have an ATT&T wireless connection that appears strong . At least 3bars and shells, but the error message is that no air printer is found. I am a novice and don't know what to try. I've had hands on ethnically support from an Apple guru and can't find any problems.

Hey there. AirPrint works over Wifi and not through a cellular network. Make sure you printer and iPad are both connected on the same wireless network.
Check out this link: Printing from an iPad Which will give you a background on the different applications available to print from your iPad and how they work.
Also check out: 'The Printer is not Found,' 'No Printers Found,' or 'Printer is Offline' Message Displays on the iPa... This one will help you troubleshoot the issue more in depth. Just make sure you two devices (printer and iPad) are connected on the same wireless network. Also make sure Bluetooth is disabled when trying to AirPrint. Bluetooth tends to interfere.
Hope this helps and post back if you have any troubles in getting it to work.
