How do I print from an iPad to a windows network printer?

How do I print from an iPad 2 to a windows network printer (without AirPrint)?

Thx for the suggestion, but it defeats the purpose by having to have my desktop computer running. I am looking for an app or hardware device that will allow me to print directly from my Ipad to my printers without having to turn on a computer to do it.
I have tried the Lantronix xprint server and while it works with my older Brother Laser it does not work with my newer Kodak ESP Office 6150 (and it doesn't look like they are even interested in attempting to write support for it into their printer list)
I have tried every app in the app store and none of them do the job WITHOUT having to have a computer running on the network.
Let me re-state the problem...
I want to print from either my Iphone 4  or my original version Ipad to my network attached printers without having to have a computer running on the network to do it. I have a Brother HL-5150D laser printer hooked to my apple airport extreme's usb port and a Kodak ESP Office 6150 connected to the network via WiFi. How can I do this.

  • How to set up printing from my mac to a windows shared printer.

    I'm trying to print to an HP PSC 1610 All in One printer. Everything is good in the set up while adding a new printer on the mac. The windows workgroup shows up as does the printer. My problem is that the particular model does not show up in the drop down list of HP printers. How can I add it to that list, or basically, how can I get it to work?
    Thanks for your help.

    So here's how you might be able to do this.  I am not 100% if it will work or not, but in theory it sounds promising.  HP has printers which support AirPlay and another feature they call ePrint.  AirPlay is Apple's standard for allowing you to print from the iPad to an AirPlay-compatible printer.  But it requires that both the iPad and printer are on the same WiFi network.  You can use the tethering feature of the iPad (it costs extra from AT&T or Verizon so check into that) to create a WiFi hotspot.  I assume this would allow you to connect the printer to the hotspot and then use AirPlay to print to it, although I am not certain if the printer is able to connect to a hotspot via the tethering feature.  Or you can use the ePrint feature of the printer in which you "email" your document to the printer and it prints it.  Again, it would require that the printer be connected (tethered) to a WiFi hotspot first.  You'd also need a way to plug the printer into your truck - I know some newer vehicles actually provide a standard 110V recipticle vs. the cigarette lighter style.

  • For no apparent reason, the printing from the iPad to the HP wireless printer was no more possible, while it was still possible from the iPhone.

    For no apparent reason, the printing from the iPad to the HP wireless printer was no more possible, while it was still possible from the iPhone 5. Any idea why?

    Gutenprint drivers are intended for non-laser printers. HP supplies the proper drivers, and you can download the latest version directly from HP's support site. Or you can install the most recent HP drivers provided by Apple.
    Printing speeds do not include the time it may take to transfer data to the printer. It also doesn't take into account the time it takes for the printer to be prepared to start printing. Color is much slower than B/W.
    Contact HP for any additional assistance you may need since these forums do not provide support for non-Apple products.

  • 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?

  • How do I print from my iPad 3 using a Canon printer?

    I just got the new iPad 3 and I was wondering if anybody could help me out. I hope this is possible, but I was trying to print from my iPad 3 using my Canon MP640r printer. I understand that it's not a Mac printer and there are only certain printers that are automatically compatible, but I figured with all of the capabilities of the iPad that somebody must have figured out a way of doing this.
    This wouldn't be the end of the world for me but I would really like to get my iPad to print from my Canon MP640r as it would be the icing on the cake and make my life a lot easier.
    Thanks a lot.

    Thank you so much, that worked like a charm.
    I appreciate it a lot.
