How does Wireless printing from ipad work?

How can I print wirelessly from ipad? I have a wireless printer but the ipad does not pick it up.

What printer model do you have?
It has to support AirPrint http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
Alternatively, there are apps for that, e.g., http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/printcentral/id366020849?mt=8

  • How can I print from ipad to non wireless printer?

    How can I print from ipad to non wireless printer. 
    ....been trying to save document to pc to print.... but cant find a way to do so.....?

    Actually you can print to a non wireless printer if you have apps on the iPad and your computer that will do this and as long as you can set up a WiFi network or the iPad and the computer are already on the same network.
    I Am running an old OSX version on my iMac at work (Tiger OSX 10.4.11) and I have an app on my iPad called Save2 pdf. I downloaded a helper app on the Mac called WePrint. I do not have WiFi at work, but I create a WiFi network using the Ethernet connection to the Mac that my iPad can also join. As long as I can send the file/text/document to the Save2pdf app, I can print it on my old HP LaserWriter1012 which is not a wireless printer. This uses the Mac as the print server and the WePrint app on the Mac sends the doecument to the printer.
    It's not a very elegant solution, and it is a little convoluted, but it does work.

  • How do I print from iPad mini?

    How do I print from IPad mini?

    Hi Bowieessence,
    I understand you have a Deskjet 3054A and would like to use it to AirPrint with your iPad mini. I will certainly do my best to assist you with this!
    I will recommend that you have a look at this How to Use Apple's AirPrint Over a Wireless Network document and it will give a couple troubleshooting steps in the last few questions. For the most part you just need to make sure both the iPad and the printer are on the same wireless network.
    Hope this helps, have a great day!!

    My printer is HP Officejet Pro 8000 A809 Series and I don't see it listed. How can I print from iPad?

    You can use 3rd party software such as Print n Share if you have a PC or Printopia if you have a Mac.
    Or you can check HPs site and see what they have available.

  • How can i print from ipad to an HP officejet 6600

    How can I print from my iPad to my HP OfficeJet 6600 ???? I can't see the printer ?????

    Your printer is on the list of printers that support your print.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    You may have to do a firmware update.Many HP printers require an update to their firmware before Airprint can be used. Check the HP website to see if a firmware update is available for your model printer.

  • How does wireless printing work

    Does e.g. a Macbook Air connect directly by wireless to a wifi enabled printer - or is it necessary to have a router ?   I mean does both Air and the printer need to be connected to a router by wifi for wireless printing to work, or is the intermediacy of a router unnecessary ?

    So you are saying an intermediate router is not needed ?  Just the Air and the wireless printer ?

  • How do I print from iPad/iPhone 4 to new HP 8500A Plus

    I just bought a new printer that works great for our MacBook Pro and Mac Book through our wireless network but I cannot seem to print from the iPad 1 or my iPhone 4.  any help would be appreciated.
    THanks

    Scheidy-
    Be sure you have checked for firmware updates using the printer's control panel.
    Otherwise it should work unless your WiFi router does not correctly handle Bonjour data required by AirPrint.  If you can set up your printer's WiFi to establish an Ad Hoc network, you should be able to connect your iPad/iPhone WiFi directly to it without going through the router.

  • HT4436 how does one print from cloudon?

    I can work on the excel and word programs but can not print from it.
    how does on do this?

    From an iOS device you need either
    1)  an airprint printer -
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    2) If yours is not listed, then the only way to print is using a computer - for example, on a Mac, get Printopia for the mac.  Then your ipad can print using airprint, Printopia intercepts the job and routes it to a printer that the Mac can connect go.

  • How can I print from iPad to a Brother printer with a TP-link tl-wps510u connected to it without using a computer? It doesn't detect the printer.

    I have a Brother printer that doesn't have wifi, but I bought a Wireless Server Print to connect to it. I want the iPad can print directly to the printer without using a computer, but the iPad doesn't detect the printer. Is that possible?

    javigomez88 wrote:
    I know that Brother has an app that works with its wireless printers, even if they are not airprint. My printer isn't wireless, is a wireless print server attached to the printer what is able to make this printer wireless. Could this app be a solution or only would work with the wireless Brother printers?
    The Apps usually only work with wireless printers, though if its free, there is no harm in trying, and see if it gets picked up, but its doubtful, as the print server would need to transmit in the same protocol the Brother Print App is expecting from the supported wireless printers. 

  • My new printer is apple AirPrint compatible .  All devices on on one remote.  How do I print from iPad.  What print app should I download.  Any and all help appreciated

    I do not know how to sync my iPad with my new canon airplay compatible printer.  They are both on the same remote server.  What app is best to download?  What do I do after that?

    If your printer is AirPrint compatible and you printer and iPad are on the same WiFi network, all that you have to do is to tap on the arrow icon in any app that you can print from and select Print from the window that pops up and this will pop up.
    You do not need additional software.

  • Best way to wireless print from ipad (without wifi)?

    I work with kids in various settings and would like to print from the ipad when I have no wifi available. What is my best option?

    You do not need a connection to the internet but a WiFi connection is necessary and many of the AirPrint printers create an ad hoc network.

  • How do I print from ipad?

    It looks like my printer (HP Photosmart 2570) is too old for airprint, but my grocery app was able to find my printer and printed off coupons.  Why can't I just tell my ipad to print from my printer?

    To print from an iPad 2 you will need to use AirPrint and an AirPrint compatable printer that way you don't need to install a driver for each printer. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
