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.

  • How can I print from my ipad to a network printer (not air enabled

    I understand there are numerous HP printers that are "air-enabled" but the one I have is not. It is an HP Laserjet Pro 200 m251nw. Is there a way that I print from my ipad to this wireless printer?

    You may have to use 3rd party apps like PrinterNShare.

  • Can i print from my ipad with an wireless printer and an apple app or do i have to have an airprinter?

    Can I print from my ipad with an wireless printer and an apple app or do I have to have an air printer?

    It depends on the printer and if it is shared on your home network.
    I have a wireless HP printer, but it is not an E Printer and cannot print directly from my mobile device.  I purchased an Epson all in one E Printer so that I could print from my tablet.  THe printer cost me less than $90 at Walmart.

  • Is it possible to print from my iPad to a Airprint-enabled printer in a wired LAN.

    Is it possible to print from my iPad to a Airprint-enabled printer in a wired LAN? My iPad is via WiFi connected to that LAN. The WiFi connection of the printer isn't used.

    My Canon MX715 printer is wired connected to the router. My iPad is via WiFi connected to the router.
    The printer could be connected via WiFi but I prefer the wired connection. So the printer is part of the LAN to which I get access with my iPad via a WiFi connection. A network scanner shows them all  connected into the LAN.
    My Windows Laptop also connected via WiFi to the same LAN finds the printer and works well every time.
    The iPad has troubles to find the printer.
    After a couples of hours by trial and error I found an app of Canon Easy PhotoPrint. After I installed the app I found my printer and could print. It worked for the apps at my iPad that have the print feature. After a while I discovered that the different apps at my iPad don't find the printer immediately every time when needed. After multiple trials it works again.
    So the big question that remains: Why doesn't it works always? Have I initialize something after start up or wake up the print access to the Lan?

  • Can you eprint from a hp photosmart c309a series printer

    can you eprint from a hp photosmart c309a series printer

    Hi bluemaze,
    The HP Photosmart C309A Printer does not support the ePrint functionality. An alternative to this would be Google Cloud Print which you can read about here : LINK
    Most of our new Photosmarts do have the ability to ePrint, as well as AirPrint and iPrint! Definitely remember to check those out.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do I print from my Ipad to my Brother printer which is wire less?

    How do I print from my IPad to my wire less brother printer .

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
    If your printer is on this list, then it's an air print enabled printer and your iPad should print to it with no other fiddling.
    If it's not an air print printer you can look in the app store and see if Brother has any apps that can help you, or any work arounds they support.
    if not, then you can look into third party printing apps. I used print n share, but I also see printopia and print central recommended, and I'm sure there are others.

  • Is there a way to print from my IPad to a Dell printer?

    Is there a way to print from my IPad to a dell wireless printer?

    The native print only works on AirPrint enabled printers.  List is below, and there are no dell printers in the mix.  So you need a third party app that will route your print job through your computer on the network.  Like printopia, print and share.  There are a umber of those apps. Go to the store, read the reviews, and find the one that does most what you want.

  • What is the most portable way to print from the IPAD to a "standalone" printer

    I am using an app called INVOICE 2 GO and I need to print invoices via the APP..... However, it looks for an airprint printer...
    Looking around and not being able to find a "portable" solution, I am thinking that I may buy a HP P1102W laser printer and take it into customers shops when I need to print..
    However, I do not want to be carrying a router, etc, to make it networked.
    These printers that say "airprint"..... will the IPAD just be able to see the printer and "off I go"
    There is a free lite version of INVOICE 2 GO if someone could try it before I commit and buy the printer.....
    Thanks in advance all.
    AMIT.....
