How can I print from my iPhone to a non AirPrint printer

How can I print from my iPhone to a non AirPrint printer?  I was told by an Apple tech to do so via Airpot Express USB port. I already have a wired and wireless network and printers connected via Ethernet.  I am just trying to print from my iPad and/or iPhone to my existing printers...if possible. I tried the airport express but that does not appear to do what I need. Any help or a definitive "no way" would be appreciated.

There are third-party apps that permit this. If on a MAC, get this:

PC, get this:

    Make sure that you have a texting plan from your carrier. If you do, just select the contact just like you would an iMessage and it should go through.

  • I have songs missing on iTunes but they are on my iPhone. How can I copy from the iPhone into iTunes on my mac air

    I have songs missing from my iTunes on the computer but they are on my iPhone 3s and my iPad mini. How can I get them into iTunes so they are in my library.?I have the latest iTunes on my commuter. Thanks for any suggestions.

    If they were purchased from iTunes then connect the phone to your Mac's iTunes and the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases should copy them over. If they came from other sources (e.g. copied from CDs) then you will need a third-party program on your Mac to copy them back - there are some listed half-way down this page : Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    If by 'missing' you mean that you have them listed in the Music part of your iTunes library but get the 'would you like to locate' message when trying to play them then you will need to delete them from there for the Transfer Purchases to work - otherwise that will see those entries in your library and assume that you still have them somewhere and not copy them back.

  • HT4910 I PURCHASED AN AUDIOBOOK FROM MY IPAD, HOW CAN I ACCESS FROM MY IPHONE AND SAVE IT TO IT

    I PURCHASED AUDIOBOOKS FROM MY IPAD2, I ALSO HAVE I CLOUD ACCOUNT WITH 15 GB STORAGE. I ALREADY BACK UP MY IPAD TO ICLOUD.
    HOW CAN I ACCESS MY AUDIOBOOK FROM MI IPHONE 4S AND STORE SOME OF THESE IBOOKS ON IT?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Audiobooks are not currently part of the content that can be re-downloaded. You should sync your audiobooks to other devices via iTunes on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iBook store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen after you tap the store button in the top corner of the iBook app on your iOS device.

  • Text messages on the Iphone 5c do not forward to non-Iphone users.  How can I communicate with both Iphone users and non-Iphone people?

    How can I create a setting that allows me to text to Iphone users and non-Iphone users?  Where do I find those settings?

    That is the default behavior when startng a message to a number that is not associated with iMessage. such as that of non iPhones.
    If you choose to user an email address it will always attempt to send an iMessage.
    For ease of identifcation, Messages sent thorugh SMS will be green in the Messages App, while iMessages will be blue.

  • How can i print my files from mi iphone 5 throught the airport express?

    How can i print my files from mi iphone 5 throught the airport express?? i have the last iOS version installed and also the last firmware version of the printer. the printer is already connected to the USB airport express and when i look for printers in airprinter there is no printer found. i have an HP LASERJET P1606dn(i think that is supported by the airprinter).

    In order to function with AirPrint, a printer must connect to the network wirelessly.
    Even if you have an AirPrint compatible printer, iOS devices will not be able to print to the printer when it is connected via USB.
    So, you have two options:
    1) Reconfigure the printer to connect to the network using wireless only and the iOS devices should be able to print that way....assuming that you have up to date drivers for the printer installed.
    2) Leave the printer connected via USB and then use a third party App like Printopia installed on your Mac as a "workaround" to (hopefully) allow the iOS to device to be able to print.  If you want to give this a try, there is a free trial for Printopia, so you will know if it will work before you buy. You must have a Mac running on the network in order for Printopia to function correctly.

    How can I print a doc from my iPhone 4S to a Lexmark Interpret S405 printer with WiFi? Thanks!

    Unfortunately you need an airprint enabled printer to print from an iOS device. There are some work arounds but they are very complicated and aren't proven to work 100%. From what I understand through rumors they are working on allowing all wireless printers to work with iOS but at the moment that's a pipedream. I don't know how important it is but if you really need to print from iPhone you can find some great AirPrint printers on Ebay for decent prices. Good Luck!

  • I have a iphone 5c and a wireless computer hooked to a usb wireless printer Hp4215 officejet all-in-one how can I print from my phone to the printer

    How can I print to my wireless Hp officejet 4215 all-in-one printer that is usb in line with my computer that uses windows 7 from my Iphone 5c

    there are 2 ½ ways to print
    1. the printer support AirPrint and it works out of the box
    2. one get a printing app from app store which support the printer
    2-½ one get the free software from netgear called netgear genie which will make the computer display all printes it's know act as AirPrint printers
    no other things in the known universe will make printing possible

  • How can I print to my HP OfficeJet 6500 Wireless Printer from my iPhone 4S which used to work before AirPrint printers were even available? (running Mac Lion OS, all software and HP sw updates are all performed)

    How can I print to my HP OfficeJet 6500 Wireless Printer from my iPhone 4S which used to work (on prior iPhones) before AirPrint printers were even available? (running Mac Lion OS, all software and HP sw updates are all performed)
    I don't get it, I read one post about why would we have to buy an AirPrint Printer when we have used the "print to a wifi printer" just fine in the past?  Yes I feel that's exactly what's happening to me now too. I want to print from my iPhone and iPad to my WiFi Printer which is also now connected to my Airport Express WiFi network just fine. No problems.

    Very glad you added that bit of information because I see different problems similar to this.  I want to share with them what you did and hopefully you not only fixed your specific problem but you can lend some more advice to others with problems like this. Thanks!
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
