Can I print from my iPad mini?

I'm trying to determine if wireless printing is a possibility with my iPad mini. Has anyone tried or been successful with this?

It is possible. If your printer supports AirPrint then you should be able to print just by the iPad and printer being connected to the same nwifi network - the printers that support AirPrint, and some info about it, are on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
If it doesn't support AirPrint then some printer manufacturers have their own apps in the store which work with some of their models e.g. Epson have an iPrint app, and HP have an ePrint app
Otherwise there are third-party printer apps such as PrintCentral Pro and Print n Share which might work with it

Can you print from an iPad 2 using 3G in a home with no computer or wifi by using an iPhone 5 hot spot connection if the printer has been set up in another place with live wifi? I know this question is loaded but my dad lives in a rural area

Can you print from an iPad 2 using 3G in a home with no other computer or wifi by using an iPhone 5 hot spot connection if the printer has been set up in another place with live wifi? I know this question is loaded but my dad lives in a rural area and is wanting a printer to use occasionally. He doesn't want to deal with a computer and I keep his iPad updated for him at my home. Please shed some light on this for us PLEASE. Thanks

In that case, it should be possible. I haven't tried this directly, but I believe it should work.
You'll need to get an actual AirPrint compatible Printer.
Check here for a list of Printers you can choose from.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
Once you have the compatible printer, using the Hotspot feature from the iPhone he'll have to create the Wifi bubble form the iPhone, and connect the Printer to that Wifi network.
Then connect the iPad to that same Wifi network provided by the iPhone. When all that is done, the printer should appear in any of the Apps that can Print under the Action Arrow button.
For instance in email, pressing the action arrow should show a Print option. In there the printer should appear.
Alternatively you can simply buy a wireless router and setup the network through there even if there is no internet attached. Connect the wireless printer to the router network, and connect the iPad or iPhone to that same wifi network to print.

No.
Printopia (running on your Mac) connects the iPad to your printer.

How can I print from the iPad 2 using an Epson Artisan 810 printer.

You said HP in your post title and Epson in your body text, but I think it is actually an Epson Artisan 810.
If that's right, then the free Epson iPrint app should work for you - it lists your printer as one that it supports: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/epson-iprint/id326876192?mt=8

How can I print from my IPad in the app Pinterest. I cannot find a way to do it!

I think she/he meant me.
If the app won't let you print directly from it you might want to open in safari or make a screen capture then print from your photos.

I can't print from my iPad to an HP 3054 Deskjet.

I can't print from my iPad to an HP 3054 Deskjet. I tried all the solutions suggested by Apple but haven't gotten in touch with HP yet. I can print through WiFi from my MacBook.

Psm3-
Has anything else changed in your system? Did you install a different WiFi router? Some are not compatible with AirPrint.
One possibility is that you have a print job stuck in the print Queue. Double click your Home button, and a row of recent Apps will line up along the bottom of the screen. Scroll across and look for the Print Center. If you find it, you should be able to cancel the stuck print job.

Can you print from an iPad through the airport express

can you print from an iPad 2 through the airport express

You can, if your printer is AirPrint compatible.
Check this Apple support document to see if your printer appears:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
If your printer is not compatible, you might still be able to print by adding an App like Print Central to the iPad.
PrintCentral for iPad on the iTunes App Store

Can i print from my ipad to a kodak hero 5.1 printer which is not an airprinter?

can i print from my ipad to a kodak hero 5.1 printer which is not an airprinter?

If the printer has WiFi, Kodak has an app in the iTunes Store that allows printing to at least some of their WiFi-equipped printers. Third-party printing apps such as PrintCentral are also available. All such apps have limitations, so check them out thoroughly before you pay for any such app.
For other printers, you can route the printing through your computer. If you have a Mac, Printopia would be worth a look. Fingerprint is another option that is available for both Mac OS X and Windows system. You could also consider an AirPrint-capable print server. Lantronix makes a couple of models, including one that supports a USB printer:
http://www.lantronix.com/it-management/xprintserver/xprintserver-t2.html
By the way, you originally posted in the forum for asking questions about the Communities themselves. There are forums specifically for Apple products, including the iPad, and normally you'll get the quickest and most applicable responses if you post there.

Can you print from a iPad to an AirPrint printer without an Internet connection?

Can you print from a iPad to an AirPrint printer without an Internet connection?

General Jer-
Maybe.
If you can set up your AirPrint printer's WiFi to create an Ad Hoc Network, then your iPad can connect its WiFi directly to it and be able to print.
I have the HP D110 AirPrint printer. As I recall, it was set up in Ad Hoc Network mode out of the box. I had to change the setting in order to update its firmware over the internet. You probably should do that as well, to be sure it has the latest firmware.
If you happen to have an old Apple AirPort WiFi base station, you can use its WiFi network for printing. It does not require an internet connection to print. Other brands may work as well, but some do not correctly handle the Bonjour data required by AirPrint.

Can you print from the iPad?

I ordered my iPad on 6/7 but won't get it till 6/24, its on back-order, DARN!! Anyway I have what may be a silly question: Can you print from the iPad using a USB cord from the printer? I pay bills online and like to have a hard copy of the receipt. Really looking forward to getting it.

To gloworm: regarding working with only one app open at a time, that should be taken care of when OS4 is available for the iPad - supposedly in the fall. As for using Air Sharing to print, you have to 1st get your files into the app via wifi from your computer. I have Air Sharing for both my phone and iPad and really like it. Once your files are in the app you just bring them up and touch the bottom left corner of iPad to bring up print. You can then print to any shared printer. I also use PrintCentral and like it for printing as well.
