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.
AirPrint setup and troubleshooting
iOS: AirPrint 101 (System Requirements, List of Printers)
I hope this helps!
Kind Regards,

Why can i not get my ipad to recognize my wireless printer but my apple desktop works with it

Why can I not get my ipad2 to print from my my wireless printer that i use for my apple desktop

It's also possible that your wireless printer will work with a minor OS tweak if you're on Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.x. Your Mac system must be on for printing to occur. (I haven't tested with Leopard 10.5.x or Lion 10.7.x)
Details are found in this Apple Support Communities thread begun in November 2010

I've been using it to print to a Canon MP560 wireless printer and an HP LaserJet 1320 USB-to-Mac printer from my wife's iPad 2 since the first day she received it for both photos and documents. Duplex printing to the Canon does not seem to be supported.

How do I get my ipad to recognizie my brother printer.? It is AirPrint compatible.

How do I get my ipad to
Recognize my brother printer? It is an air printer compatible ...

Make sure that the printer software is fully updated. Sometimes you have to install a firmware update for the printer before it will work with AirPrint, you can check for updates on the Brother website.
If the firmware is up to date and If you are sure that you installed the software correctly, try rebooting the printer, your router and the iPad. Unplug the printer and the router from power for about 30 seconds. Plug them both back in...router first.
Reboot the iPad. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
See if the printer will work after you reset everything.

How do I get my iPad to recognize my wireless network printer

My I pad does not recognize my hp309 wireless through th same home network? It is very confusing to me seems there are many methods? I can't seem to simplify it enough for my success. Thanks barry

Below is the current list of sirprint supported printers, and unfortunatly, i do not see the 309 listed in the hp section.
Your next approach would be an app like printopia, that lets you wirelessly print thru your computer. Also, take a look at the hp print app and see if that does what you need. I believe it is meant for pictures.

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

Hi otterSD,
When it comes to using AirPrint and it is not seeing your printer, the check the troubleshooting below to get it sorted out. You have already made sure it is on the same wireless network, so check to make sure that the printer does not need attention with any errors and check Epson’s website if there is any firmware updates for the printer.

If you're unable to print
Check these things if you are unable to print, or if you see the message "No AirPrint Printers Found."
Make sure your printer has paper, and enough ink or toner installed.
Make sure your printer is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your iOS device.
Make sure your printer has power and is turned on. Try turning your printer off and then back on again to see if it resolves your issue.
Check to see if your printer has any error lights or indicators displayed on the printer's control panel. Check the documentation that came with your printer to clear any errors displayed.
Check with your printer's manufacturer to see if any firmware updates are available for your printer. Check your printer's documentation or contact the printer vendor for more information. A firmware update may be available, even if you just bought your printer.
Take it easy,

How to I get the iPad to recognize a number beginning with 0 without it cutting off the 0

How do I get the iPad to recognize a number beginning with 0 without dropping the 0. And how do I get the iPad to recognize a 4 (birth year) or 5 (zip code) digit number with adding a comma delineating it to thousands?

Hi,
Because the iPad requires more power than from a normal USB port can supply therefore you can not charge an iPad using ONE USB port on a laptop/PC. Please try this free utility, many HP users say it works:

I cannot get my Airport Express to accept wireless clients.

I cannot get my Airport Express to accept wireless clients. After resetting to factory default and reconfiguring, it works briefly but then stops again.
The Airport Express is on the second floor of my house and is seen by Airport Utility. Using a LAN cable with the Express works no problem.
My network is created by an Airport Extreme (ground floor) and extended by a Time Capsule (first floor)
Have run through all settings repeatedly and as I said I can get it to work briefly by resetting and then reconfiguring, but after a short while again my iOS devices can no longer connect and revert to cellular.

My network is created by an Airport Extreme (ground floor) and extended by a Time Capsule (first floor)
The issue is most likely due to the fact that the AirPort Express may be too far from the AirPort Extreme to properly extend it with enough bandwidth to be useful.
It is important to understand that with Apple 802.11n or 802.11ac base station an extended network works in a wheel-like fashion with the base station to be extended at the hub and each extending base station along one of the spokes. This type of configuration does not allow for daisy chaining the base stations. That is, in your case, both the Time Capsule and AirPort Express are attempting to extend the AirPort Extreme.
Each extending base station must be within a certain signal quality range in order to extend the network properly. Please check out the following AirPort User tip for details.

I cannot get my iPad 2 to work with VPN provider.

I cannot get my iPad 2 to work with my VPN service provider. Using OS 4.3.3. iPad purchased in the USA. Have heard there are issues with iPad 2 and VPN support. Any suggestions?

You can try this ... hold down on the sleep button and the power button at the same time for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo on the screen, release the buttons and see if the iPad restarts and you can use it.

I cannot get my ipad icon to appear in iTunes

I have gone through all the tutorials that seem to apply, but cannot get my ipad icon to appear on the left side of my itunes screen so that I can synch the 2 together. I am not an expert, and need some help here. Thank you so much.

I will assum that you are using the latest version of iTunes 11. Do you even see the devices heading in the sidebar or do you even see the sidebar? If not, go to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu so that it is visible.
If you have done all of that and the iPad still doesn't show up.....
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X - Support - Apple
Not knowing if you are using WiFi or cable syncing, you can simply try, quitting iTunes, reboot the Mac and restart the iPad and see if that helps.

How do I get my ipad to recognize the microphone on my arbuds?

Hi,
You'll need to make sure that both your printer and iPad are connected to the same wifi network (your home wifi). When this is complete, your printer should see your iPad.

How do I get my ipad to find the wireless HP printer that is supposed to be compatible w/ Air Print

How do I get my ipad to find the wireless HP printer that is supposed to be compatible w/ Air Print?

Mary-
First be sure your printer is on Apple's list of AirPrint compatible printers at <iOS: AirPrint 101>.
Assuming it is on that list, check to see if there is a firmware update for it. You should be able check it from the printer's control panel in one of the setup or preferences menus.
If the printer is still not found in the iPad's print routine, your WiFi router may not correctly handle Bonjour data required by AirPrint. You would need to contact the router's manufacturer to see if there is a change you can make to its setup, or if there is a firmware update that will solve the problem.
