I am having problems printing from my iPad via my AirPort Extreme network.

I am having no success printing from my iPad via my AirPort Extreme based local network. I can use this to print wirelessly from my iMac OS X 10.7.5 and MacBook Pro OS X 10.6.8. I have 2 printer options: HP Laserjet (B&W) P1005 hard-wired to the iMac and HP Photosmart 7760 hard-wired to the AirPort Extreme. I believe I have checked all the correct boxes to enable the network and the iPad to connect, including ensuring that it is using the same network but when I try to select a printer I get the message that no printer can be found. Will it not work with an AirPort Extreme based network or only if this is connecting to wirelessly enabled printers which I do not have.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi,
Apple's AirPrint only support specific models while using wired or wireless network connection.
Plugging a printer into a USB port of Apple base is not supported for AirPrint:
AirPrint printers connected to the USB port of the Apple AirPort Base Station or Time Capsules are not supported with AirPrint.
As well you must use AirPrint enabled printers for a such, none of your printers are AirPrint enabled:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
There are 3rd party solutions which allow sharing a printer connected to your Mac as AirPrint, Printopia as example provide a such:

Problems printing from OS-X via timecapsule (Airport extreme)

Just bought 500GB Time Capsule with my Macbook Pro and Brother HL-2070N. I have connected the printer via Cat 5 and provided it a static IP of 10.0.1.199 (airport is 10.0.1.1).
I can print a test page via the Brother BRAdmin software tool, which means I am talking to the printer. When I create the printer under the System Preferences (printers & faxes), it 'validates' the printer address and does not give an error message.
HOWEVER, when I try to print using this 'named' printer using the OS-X print option on word or safari, it spools the job but shows the status as STOP. I press PAUSE and RESTART in the printer spool status box, and get a response that "Cannot resume client connection error".
Any suggestions on how to print using Cat 5 and Time Capsule?
thanks

I'm having problems printing from my 15" macbook pro to my HP wireless printer. It works sometimes but not reliably, it can spend hours "seating for printer". I can print from my i pad with no problems

Problems printing from my iPad to AirPrint network

I can't seem to print from my iPad. I recently purchased a wireless printer (Canon MX420). I've set up the wireless LAN to my wifi network and I can print from my iMac wirelessly just fine. When I attempt to print from my iPad, it shows "No AirPrint Printers Found". Any suggestions?

or search app store for a canon printing app
I print to my wifi samsung printer by using an samsung printing app
that was free in app store

Can you print from an iPad through the airport express

can you print from an iPad 2 through the airport express

You can, if your printer is AirPrint compatible.
Check this Apple support document to see if your printer appears:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
If your printer is not compatible, you might still be able to print by adding an App like Print Central to the iPad.
PrintCentral for iPad on the iTunes App Store

Can I print from my iPad with an airport

i would like to print from my IPad to a printer with out a network

You would need an app that provides this feature, if one exists.
Have a look at the app store.

Printing from Windows XP via an Airport Express

This might be helpful for anyone who has the same problem with their printer...
If you configure an printer via windows connecting via tcp/ip default most people use RAW_9100 or LPR, problem is that so far all printers I tested from Canon seem to have problems with LPR and completely do not work with RAW_9100...
Fix:
Simply change the RAW port to 9101, don't forget to remove all tasks from your printer queue first before changing.
If other people have the same problem and maybe a other solution please post here

Yes this finally made my Canon S300 print from XP while connected to an Airport Express. Other Macs on the network could print just fine. The XP Bonjour Printer Wizard was absolutely useless in trying to create a working printer. Here are the steps I took.
START > Settings > Printers and Faxes
“Add a printer”
Click Next
“Local printer attached to this computer”
“Create a new port” / select Standard TCP/IP Port from the pulldown requestor
Click Next
Enter the IP address of the Airport Express in “Printer Name or IP Address”
While entering the IP address the box below should automatically fill itself in as the same IP address and should insert “IP_” before it (after you have finished entering the first box)
Click Next
Check the “Custom” radio button
Click “Settings” next to it
**this is the important weird part that finally made my Canon printer work**
Change the “Port Number” to 9101
Click OK
Click Next
Click Finish
Select the Brand and Make (driver) of your printer
I clicked “Keep Existing Driver”
Give it a name or leave the one it created in “Printer Name”
Select whether or not you want it as the default printer
Select whether or not you want to share it (probably not since other can access it over the network in their own way)
Go ahead a print a test page and rejoice when it finally prints (I did)

I need to print from my iPad which is connected (WiFi) to my airport extreme.

If there is an app to print from the iPad to the airport extreme, could someone let me know please

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.

Problems printing from a Macbook Pro on a Kodak ESP7

Hi,
I am having problem printing from my Mac to the Kodak. I have connected the mac to the printer through the settings as it can see it. However, when I come to print it it says the printer is not responding and to check if it is turned on and properly connected. I have tried reloading the printer etc but still cant get it to work. I fired up my old windows laptop and that will print fine wirelessly so it can't be my BT Hub for the internet.
Any suggestions would be appreciated as I dont want to go and have to buy another printer.
Thanks for suggestions.
Matt

Using the OS X built-in network printing protocols
requires a CUPS driver. Check on Brother's site to
see if they now have a CUPS driver for your model,
or you can try the open source hl1250 driver from:
http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/hl1250/
Unfortunately, I don't have an Intel Mac, so I don't
know if any of these power PC drivers will work for
you.
Please let us know.
I was told by a friend that the drivers are already built into the OS X 10.4.3, I hooked up the printer directly via USB and indeed it worked just fine. But, as I stated before, I just can't get the **** thing to work when the printer is connected to my PC and I try to print through the network.

Used to be able to print from my iPad but now when I print the paper comes out but there is nothing on it

Problem printing from my iPad use to work now the paper comes out empty

Go into iMessage and Facetime and sign out.
Go to Settings > iTunes and App Store, log out the person who sold it to you and enter your information.
Or go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings and then start from scratch.

Problems printing from Adobe 9

Hi, I am having problems printing from Adobe 9. I can open documents OK but when I try to print them it takes me through the normal print screens, then when I press print it says unable to print document followed by page not selected.
I have also try to delete Adobe 9 and reinstall but when I come to reinstall, I have to click on the grey box at the top of my screen to agree to allow the instillation to take place and everything just freezes up and I have to ctr alt del to move on.
Everything was working fine until the last couple of days
Any help would be much appreciated

My problem is the printing will eventually happen but I have to wait for as long as half an hour. What gives? Are there worms in the Acrobat 9 product? How can I resolve this problem?

Can I use my bluetooth to print from my IPAD

Is there anyway I can print directly from my IPAD using my bluetooth?

As far as I can tell, there is no way to print directly from your iPad to a printer via Bluetooth.
Apple created audio and keyboard "drivers" for Bluetooth on the iPad, but they did not add functionality to send printable content via Bluetooth.
Apparently, there is a technology called AirPrint that will work for iPad printing, but it is specific to only certain printers - and it uses WiFi (i.e., the Internet) to print rather than Bluetooth.
There are also several printing programs that will essentially pipe your pages to your desktop Mac/PC (or the software developer's server), and then send them back to your local computer - but those seem cumbersome at best.
So, the answer to your question is that there seems to be no way to print from your iPad via Bluetooth, becaue the Bluetooth technology on the current iPad will only transmit audio or keystrokes.
If someone knows of another option, I'd like to hear about it, too.

Printing from an ipad with epson sx525wd?

I have an ipad 3 and have tried both installing iprint epson app and looking for whether airprint is supported by the epson sx525wd but no answer can I find - the epson online support pushed a document to me which was immediately nuked by a survey when she went offline and I cannot find it - something I glimpsed about using itunes somehow. I will want to print from pages.
Thanks
Graham

Miaartcart-
No, you can not print from the iPad via Bluetooth.
AirPrint compatible printers are listed at <iOS: AirPrint 101>. The last time I checked, none of those listed were portable.
One option is to use a DC-to-AC inverter in your car, with one of the available AirPrint printers plugged into it. You may be able to connect the iPad's WiFi directly to a printer set up to host an Ad Hoc network. Otherwise you could also power a WiFi router from the inverter.
There may be non-AirPrint portable printers you can use with a printing App such as Print n Share or PrintCentral on the iPad. These Apps can only be accessed from within other Apps that have the "Open In" option. However they have their own text, E-Mail, browser and photo programs. If you can use these programs, a printing App may meet your needs.

HT4356 I checked everything out and had no problem printing from IPAD/MINI using the HP Photosmart 6520 printer, but the next day, using same application, my HP did not show, but was looking for the AirPrint Printer, what am I doing wrong?

Using IPAD2, IPAD MINi, HP photosmartE6520 set up on wireless network. No problem printing from my devices, but the following day, it is looking for AirPrint printer, why?

Hello lenc48,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having a few issues when it comes to printing from your mac as well as some two sided printing issues.
I do have a some suggestions that we can try in the attempt to troubleshoot this issue.
First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
Please remove the usb cable (if using wireless, disregard this step) from the printer and from the Mac and leave it disconnected until further notice.
Please click on the first link that will give you instructions on Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Once the software has been removed, please disable any anti virus protection that you may have on the Mac.
The next step we are going to take is downloading the HP Photosmart 6520 e-All-in-One Printer Full Feature Software and Drivers - OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
The installation will prompt you when to connect the usb cable (You will see a prompt for a wireless connection as well if that is the connection type you would like to use) so please do not connect the cable until prompted to do so.
If you are still having issues, feel free to write me back or you can contact HP Total care direct. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
Thanks for your time.
