AirPrint - how to use Apple's AirPrint solution on HP ePrint Printers

Went thru all 8 pages of this topic--didn't see the answers to my questions.
I'm really very frustrated at this point.
I have an LF Pro 1536dnf MFP.  All the docs I can find say it is AirPrint capable, as long as the iOS device and the printer are on the same wireless network.  The printer's connection to my PC is via a USB cable.  It is never explained anywhere how to connect a non-wireless-capable printer to a wireless network.
Assuming that "magic" is not the answer, I downloaded and installed the AirPrint service from the javox website referenced other places on this website, only to find that the installation instructions on *that* web site don't work with iOS 5 devices--my iPhone never saw any AirPrint printers.  I found installation instructions that *do* work with iOS 5 devices but now my printers show up as "locked."  I can't print to them.  I've found various other workarounds for that (enable the guest account, enable the administrators account, have the service log in as a existing user) but none of them work for me; either no AirPrint printers show up on my iPhone or they show up but they have a locked icon and I can't access them.
At this point, I don't know what's supported and what isn't.  I'm assuming that the AirPrint service is what I'm supposed to use to make my printer visible to my phone.  Is that true?  If not, what AM I supposed to use?  And if that IS what I'm supposed to use, why doesn't it work?
I've seen it suggested here that the router may be the problem, so I'll say my router is ISP-supplied (free, so I really can't complain about the cost ;-); it is a Netgear N150 Wireless Router WNR1000.  I'm pretty sure it and BonJour are getting along okay because when I tried FingerPrint to print to my printers from iPhone it found them all (but no joy, it still wouldn't print to them--it said it was printing but the printers never printed anything.  For completeness here, I never let any job in the Print Center time out, so maybe eventually something would have printed, but I thought 5 minutes was long enough to wait. But only the *printers* didn't work with FingerPrint--items sent to "Open on my PC" opened on my PC).
Hopefully I've given enough (and not too much) detail and also hopefully, the tone of this post doesn't reflect the tremendous amount of frustration I feel at this point.
Help!

In your setup you should connect the LJ Pro 1536dnf MFP via an ethernet cable to your router. Ideally that is all of the setup you need for AirPrint.
If that doesn't work then we need to figure out why the router is blocking traffic.
You don't want to use the AirPrint Service from javox. That service is Apple beta software that was never released.

    I cannot conect ipad with os 7 to printer j6413

    Hi Zeevzeevi. One possibility after the iOS upgrade could have been your iPad may have connected to a 5.0ghz network which may not see the 2.4ghz that the printer is on.
    According to this apple forum post some people fixed this issue by power cycling their router and iPad:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/23149132#23149132
    This apple forum post indicated that they deleted the home network from the iPad and DNS settings and rejoined his thier network:

    You can't delete the App Store app on the iPod. You can only hide it via Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions).
    If not hidden by restrictions, have you used the SpotLight search to try to find it?

    also you can

  • How to use Apple mpeg2 plugin (20$) + Streamclip (free)

    I have Apple mpeg2 plugin + Streamclip on my computer, and for the life of me I can't figure out how to use the two to open my DVD in imovie!
    Help~

    Ooops! I had a copy of QTKirk's explanation positioned under the Apple link (didn't notice the source!), and thought that both were connected. Here's his explanation:
    "Read the FAQ page so you understand completely before you buy.
    Install this new software [Apple MPEG2 Playback] and quit and relaunch QT Player (if running).
    Open QT Player and then insert your DVD. Quit DVD Player if it starts.
    From the "File" menu of the QuickTime Player choose "Open File". Navigate to the DVD and its VIDEO_TS folder and click OK. Your file should now be playing in QuickTIme Player.
    QuickTIme Pro can't edit or export this file with audio. It can't be imported into iMovie until it is converted.
    Download and install MPEG Streamclip (free).
    Open MPEG Streamclip, navigate to your DVD and choose the VIDEO_TS folder. Click OK and it will open in Streamclip.
    Choose "Export" and pick DV Stream. Wait for the conversion to finish. It will make a new file (you name it).
    Open iMovie and "Import" this new .dv file and make your edits, etc. "
    It may be of use to the OP.
    Thanks, Sue:-)

    You can't use Safari to upload or install any applications on the iPad, the only place to get apps for the iPad is the App Store app on your iPad an the iTunes app store on your computer's iTunes.
    There appears to be WeChat app in the store.

    Hello,
    I haven't been able to find exactly what I'm looking for elsewhere on the interwebs.
    I want to be able to set up the Apple Mail app on my Mac to send outgoing emails only from my Gmail account. I use the Gmail website and my iPhone for sending/receiving emails and I don't want or have a need for all of my Gmail emails to be downloaded into the Apple Mail app or for new emails to appear in the Mail app as they come in.
    I just want to be able to send outgoing emails from the app so that I can send photos directly from iPhoto using the Email button. Any help is greatly appreciated!
