AirPrint setup

Hello there.
Have just bought a small Canon wireless enabled printer and tried yesterday to set it up to print from my iPad and Macbook Pro. I currently tether my iPhone 4 for internet access but seem to be unable to access Wifi to get the printer to work. What do I need to do? Help please ....

If you get on the Canon website and look up your printer, you will find more information on setup for airprint
Wireless printers usually need to be connected via cable to a computer to setup wireless printing. (Often a firmware update is needed)
again, all this should be on Canon's website.

AirPrint setup on Ipad2.

Cannot see the AirPrint printer on ipad2.

I went to HP's web support and found that if your bluetooth is turn on, this will not allow your printer to show up. Go into settings/General/Bluetooth/ and turn off bluetooth. When I did this, my airprint works again.

Can't find Printer for AirPrint

So I have an Canon MX432 printer that is air-print enabled. However, when I try to print from my iPad 4 it says "No AirPrint Printers Found". I have looked into this and I have the latest printer firmware, but it's still not working... help?

Enable AirPrint on Artisan 837

STILL getting "No AirPrint Printers Found"
First of all, yes this is an AirPrint printer.
So, I picked this up despite everything in my head telling me I didn't need it. Well, I'm tired of emailing things to myself to print, so to heck with it.
I've used Artisan printers in the past and know their quirks, but this is my first bout with anything AirPrint.
Full disclosure - Wondows 7 user. I have an iPad 2 and iPhone 4S running the latest iOS (5.0.1, right?) - just checked and there were no updates.
Artisan 837 is on and connected to my WiFi. I can print just fine. I have the latest drivers and went to Epson's AirPrint "support" page to get the latest firmware.
http://support.epson.net/airprint/fw.html
I went to the printer's IP on my network through a browser and setup Google Cloud print and AirPrint. Google is working just fine.
Here is the AirPrint setup...
Bonjour Service Name    - Artisan837 (ususally "EPSON Artisan 837")
Bonjour Location            - is this like a workgroup? I've tried it blank (defaults to Epson's own thing) and with a custom name
Top Priority Protocol       - two choices, both of which I've tried. "Port9100" (default and current) and "IPP"
I've also used the browser interface to check for firmware updates - I'm using the latest version!
Despite all of this, time and time again, I get "No AirPrint Printers Found." And I'm printing from standard iPhone applications - pictures, email, Safari, etc.
Does anyone have any idea what's going on?
Epson's guides make NO mention of AirPrint. The only way I knew to check the FW was an orange insert they taped to the printer. Their site is undergoing maintainance right now and I can't get to any support numbers... not sure they'd help me much, anyway.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've been at this for a while, and am... very irritated to say the least.

I've had the Epson Artisan 837 running for a few months now. I have been so impressed with it's performance, reliability and functions that I've installed a continuous ink supply system (which is also running brilliantly). I've also dumped my hp and canon printers, compared to the Epson, they're nothing but money suckers.
"Well, I just got off the phone with Epson, and it looks like I'm not crazy: this thing is defective. And by that, I don't mean just mine, but ALL Epson 837 printers are defective! There is a hardware issue that keeps these things from updating their firmware. Again, this is a hardware defect, so NO updates will fix this. So I would be able to print to this if I was using version 4.x of iOS, but not 5 or higher."   -   Although I do believe this comment was probably made by an Epson employee, I completely dissagree, however not surprised.
First thing I did when taking it out of the box was update the firmware. That was easy, no problems at all. Didn't fail and it only had to be done once because the firmware updated as expected the first time (unlike some apple and samsung firmware updates).
AirPrint set up was a total breeze, as was the rest of the printer set up. The printer is visable to every device (and there is a lot) on my rarther large convoluted network covering mutiple houses and half a street.
Every model iOS device works flawlessly with airprint - including every model iphone except the 3G (all running iOS 5.0.1). There are quite a few flavours of windows machines and a couple of macs (iMac & Mac Pro) and all of the have flawless access to pretty much every feature of the printer.
The one problem I MAY have found, a user on my network mentioned difficulty printing using windows, IE9, however once the user switched to firefox the problem ceased to exist. I have not verified this because I don't really care, just thougt I'd mention it because I cannot find anything else to fault with this model.
I'm sorry people here have been having difficulties with this printer - for me it has been a dream. I'll never buy another hp or canon now I've been using this Epson printer.
The desk space, money, ink, maintenance time and paper saved by using the Epson over the other printers/scanners has been immeasurable.
Don't buy a HP!

Airprint ios 7

After updating to ios 7 the airprint on ipad and iphone will not longer find the airprint printers.
Have reset network settings.
Have confirmed network connection and can enter the printers web page by the IP address.
However, The printers did show up in the list of airprint printers before the ios upgrade now nothing?
Any ideas?

If that happened to me, here is what I would do:
Download the (free) Epson iPrint app to your iPhone. See if that app finds the WF-3540 printer.
If it does, click on the printer and go to Advanced Settings, and go through both the firmware update and AirPrint setup options.
If the Epson iPrint app does not find your WF-3540 on your iPhone, then install it on your iPad and go through the same steps. Probably the firmware update will make it visible to your iPhone, but you'll have an additional clue from the fact that the Epson app on your iPhone couldn't see the printer either.

I can't use AirPrint from my ipad 4th gen to Lexmark Pro915. Any suggestions?

My 4th gen wifi/cellular ipad doesn't see my Lexmark Pro915 printer. They both connect to my network just fine. Any suggestions for a solution?

Hi, Gangusb.
You may find these articles helpful in troubleshooting your AirPrint issue. As you Lexmark print is an AirPrint compatible printer, some AirPrint printers will require a firmware update out of the box to become AirPrint-enabled. See the manufacturer's documentation or website for details.

Cannot get my ipad to recognize my wireless printer.

I only have an iPad and hp netbook. iPad does not recognize my wireless hp deskjet 3050a printer. Don't know how to connect printer to my wireless network

It looks like if your printer is model 3050a j611, then it should be OK for that iPad.
Take a look at the following Apple setup instructions and see if that helps clear up the issue for you.

How can I print to an hp printer which is not air enabled

I am having trouble finding an app which will enable me to print to my HP All-in-One C7280 printer from the IPad and IPhone.

Thanks

Printing ability from iPad

Is there a way to print downloaded pages from iPad? Can download kindle book on iPad be sent to my Apple Desktop or iMac & print from one of them? HOW?
Chris P/H

If you have an AirPrint setup, that would be ideal. It can print directly from Safari (without requiring any download).

Cannot connect to wifi printer

I have a new macbook pro and am trying to set it up to print to a shared canon ip1000 connected to an xp pc . I have a netgear router.
I can access the printer and set it as the default printer on the MBP. When I send a job to the print queue, the job shows as "Printing" for about 5 minutes, then disappears. Nothing comes out on the printer.
I think I have the network set up properly as the MBP can read and write files to shared directories on the xp pc and vice versa. (I can print to the printer over the network using an xp laptop.)
If I enter smbtree in an X11 terminal, I can see the printer as attached to the xp pc.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this greatly appreciated.Thanks

Hello Sylvb369,
It sounds like you have an AirPrint capable printer, but are unable to print from it. I want to recommend starting at step 2 of this troubleshooting assistant:
AirPrint setup and troubleshooting
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/airprint/#section_2
Connecting to your printer
Verify Wi-Fi is enabled and that you are connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your printer.
Open an application that supports AirPrint, including Safari, Mail, and Photos. Apps from the App Store may require an update to use AirPrint.
Choose the content you want to print and tap the appropriate icon to display the option to Print.
Select your printer and tap Print.
If you are unable to print, the next section can assist with setting up your printer and troubleshooting basic issues.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling
