Can I print from my ipad2 to my iMac wirelessly?

I'm new to ipad2 and want to know if the Bluetooth or wifi can be used to send Pages letters to my iMac wirelessly.   I'm able to Share/ print through
iTunes but that entails hooking up wires.  Any help for me minus purchasing the AIRPort?

You can't print via bluetooth (that is aimed at devices such as headphones and keyboards on iOS devices). If you don't have an Airprint supported printer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356) then you might be able to print via wifi via your PC/Mac using apps such as Print Central and Print n Share.
I don't have the Pages app or print from my iPad, so I can't say which print app is best (or if they work with Pages)

  • How can I print from my ipad2 to my hp6210 all in one using printopia...I can see the list on my ipad2, I select the printer and say print but nothing happens.

    How can I print from my ipad2 to my hp 6210 all in one using printopia? I see my printer on my iPad, I select it and say print and nothing happens. The printer is connected to an older Mac with OS X 10.4.11 but I do have an imac in another room. I have trouble printing from the iMac to this printer also even tho share is on but the printer works fine with the old Mac it's connected to. My iPad has the latest iOS.

    A few things to consider.
    The computer Printopia is loaded on must be powered on and must be able to print on the printer that is being shared.  If the iMac is having problems printing to the printer it could indicate a problem with the share setup.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    If you have a Mac running OS X, try AirPrint Activator.
    http://netputing.com/airprintactivator/airprint-activator-v2-0/
    It's "donation-ware."
    Free to download and try. If it works and you like it, the developers do appreciate a donation, but the app continues to function, even without a donation.

  • Can i print from my ipad2 to an epson printer connected to time machine.?

    can i print from my ipad2 to an epson printer which is connected to my time machine.?

    Does that printer support wireless printing?  If so, then try it that way using the "Epson iPrint" app.  From my experience, don't expect to be able to print every type of thing you'd want to.

  • How can I print from my ipad2 to a Kodak 5250 ESP printer?

    How can I print from my iPad 2 to a Kodak 5250 printer?

    You cannot.
    The USB port on the AirPort Express allow sharing a printer with Windows and Mac OS X, not with iOS:
    "Wireless printing over USB requires a compatible printer and OS X v10.2.7 or later, Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7":
    http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/#wireless-printing
    "AirPrint-enabled printers  connected using Bluetooth or shared through a USB port of a Mac, PC, AirPort Base Station, or Time Capsule are not supported":
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    The HP ePrint app also does not provide such functionality:
    Can I print from the HP ePrint mobile app using USB or Bluetooth?
    No. You can only print directly to supported HP printers on a local wireless network.

  • How can I print from an IPAD2?

    I recently asked the above question and I appreciate the response.  I think I should have been more specific.  I would like to print directly from the IPAD to my printer.  I do not have wireless, WiFi or a network, just an IPAD2 and a IMAC.  My printer is a DELL 1230C.  Can I just run a cable from the IPAD2 to my printer?  As you tell I am no computer expert, just a simple user.

    I don't have a printer connected or used by mine so I'm not 100% about the following as it's not something that I've needed to look into, but as nobody else has yet replied.
    I don't think that a printer can be directly connected to the iPad - I'm only aware of a camera connection kit which has a USB connection as part of it, but it can only be used to transfer photos and videos to the iPad, and it doesn't support other hardware. Plus you wouldn't be able to install any printer drivers onto the iPad, so I think the only way to print from the iPad is via wifi - either directly via wifi via Airprint to some HP printers as I linked to in your other thread, or via wifi to a printer connected to a PC or Mac

  • Can I print from my iPad to a Dell Wireless printer

    I have a v305 wireless I am trying to see if I can use it with my ipad2.

    Barbara-
    There are no Dell printers listed as being AirPrint-capable at <http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356>.  I suggest you search the iTunes App store for a Dell App, which might be free.
    There are printing Apps such as Print n Share and PrintCentral.  They work fairly well, but can only be accessed from within other Apps that have the "Open In" option.
    Besides purchasing an AirPrint printer, your best option may be to share your computer's printer as AirPrint over WiFi.  Programs that can do this include Printopia and FingerPrint.  Your computer must be on and awake any time you want to print.

  • Can't print from my iPad2 to my airprint printer

    I have an iPad2 and an HP Officejet 8500 wireless printer. I have been unable to print to it from my iPad. I even tried an app and that didn't work either(before I realized my printer is Airprint enabled). I'm not sure how to check the firmware that is mentioned. I don't see that on HP's website when I have checked there.

    Hi Jody, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Have you done this yet?
    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then reboot.
    If that doesn't work try Mac OS X: About the Reset Printing System feature ...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1341?viewlocale=en_US
    Might try Printer Setup Repair 5.1...

    Add the Printer again after removing it.

    The driver provided by HP is a Carbon driver. It was written to only support USB (directly to computer).
    The open source CUPS driver requires compiling for OS X:

  • Can I print from my iPad 2 via a wireless router to a kodak printer

    Is it possible to send a document from my iPad via my wireless router to a kodak printer.

    It's possible with AirPrint. See:
    AirPrint Information and FAQ: Apple Support Communities
    iOS: AirPrint 101
    If the printer does not support AirPrint then you may be able to activate it with AirPrint Activator 2.1b2 or Printopia 2.1.4.
