  • 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.

  • Cannot print from my macbook pro on wireless canon printer mixed enviorment

    Hi,
    I recently bought a macbook pro and added it to my home network.  I printed wirelessly to my canon mx870 fine when i first set up.  Now, it will not print.  It does thru the motions of printing but nothing comes out and there is no error.  If i plug the printer in it works.  I have a pc set up to the wireless printer as well.  Not sure if that makes a difference.  That still works.   Any assistance would be appreciated!

    What OS are you running?
    Try resetting the printing system.

  • How can i print from an ipad to a HP100 mobile printer

    Is it possible to print from an ipad to a HP100 mobile printer using airprint or wifi or bluetooth?

    I also had this question and found a solution for my WiFi enabled HP printer.  Try the App, "HP ePrint".  It worked for me and I have been trying for years to be able to print from my iPhone and iPad.  Easy set up.

  • 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 I print from my iPad 3 using a USB printer attached to my time capsule via the network. Thanks!

    You might want to take a look at an app called Printopia to see if it will do what you want. There is a free trial, so you will know if it will work before you buy.

  • 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.

    Try rebooting your router. Make sure its firmware is updated.

  • How can I print from my ipad 3 to a mobile printer that only has bluetooth?  Is this possible?

    I have an iPad 3 with the most up to date iOS, and am looking to be able to print directly to a mobile printer.  I will be working in a remote area and will not have my computer with me, just the ipad.  The printer is an officejet 150 mobile all-in-one with built in blue tooth.  I can get it to work great from my laptop, but I need it to work from the ipad, any way of doing this?  If so what print app will work?  Or can you only print via wireless on select printers.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    You must have WiFi and an AirPrint enabled printer http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356 check to see if yours is AirPrint enabled or the manufacturer has an update to make it so.
