I cannot print from my Ipad - please help

Hi
Please can someone help - I have an ipad and an air printer (Canon MX435). I am trying to print from the ipad to the printer but it cannot find any air printers - please could someone help.
Just to say, I am very very inexperienced in technology, so please could you give me the most simplest answers and I will try and follow them. I have googled to see how to do this and it appears to easy, but alas mine does not work.
Sorry if i dont understand what to do, but I really would like some help on this and dont know much about computers/routers/connection/wireless much at all so if anyone can help me set this up, id be very pleased.
Thanks in advance

You can see what wifi network your iPad is using as follows:
* Open the Settings app (looks like one large gear and two small ones).
* The second entry in the left column should be "Wi-Fi" with one or more words to the right of that.
* If the part to the right of "Wi-Fi" says "Off", you are not connected to wifi at all.
* Otherwise, the part to the right is the name of the current network.
You should have had to select a network when you first brought the printer home and set it up. It should be the same network as above. I have not figured out how you can see if the printer is on the same wifi network after the fact.
Here's another thing to check:
* Print the Nozzle Check Pattern as follows:
-- Make sure there is a sheet of A4 or letter plain paper in the front tray and the output tray support is extended.
-- Press the "Setup" button.
-- Use the right or left arrow button to select Maintenance, then press the OK button.
-- Use the right or left arrow button to select Nozzle check, then press the OK button.
* Under the test pattern you should find a page count and optionally a firmware version (like "Ver. 2.000").
* You need to see a version at least equal to 2.000. If not, you need to update the firmware.

I cannot print from my ipad to my wireless canon printer MX420 which is not on the list have tried to download Airprint but that is also a problem. Help !!

If that canon printer is not an air print printer then the options you have left is to see if canon has any printing apps or look for a third party app like print n share, printopia or printcentral.

I cannot print from my ipad. It is connected to the wireless okay. I have only had this ipad for a month and while I am not sure I think it has been okay to print before 2 days ago, when I tried to print and I got the message "Airprinter not found" Has anyone experienced this and if so what did you do about it? I have no trouble printing from my computer.

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

Hi gisdol,
I don't know where you would find your saved document, the Apple Community could help you with that I am sure, but I can help you print from your iPad.
You can use AirPrint to send print jobs over a wireless network to compatible HP printers. Read through the following document for answers to frequently asked questions (FAQs) that help you print with AirPrint; Printing Over a Wireless Network with Apple's AirPrint FAQs.

I cannot print from my iPad using airport express. My printer is not AirPrint compatible but is connected to airport express thru USB port. My laptop can print with no problem thru the express unit. My lap top is no a mac.

Good day, my iPad does not seem to pick up my printer. My printer is not AirPrint compatible but is connected to my airport express thru the USB port. My laptop which is windows type connects to the printer via airport express thru bonjour and this work well. My iPad does not pick up my printer thru the airport express. I have read about different software that you can download but this seems to be only if you are using a mac. I know my express is working fine as I can use airplay thru my iPad. Any ideas? I do not want to go to the expense of changing my printer, when there was no mention in the express details that your printer had to be AirPrint compatible or indeed wireless.

See this article to learn how to print from an iPad to your USB printer when you have a PC. The PC will need to be running when you want to print from the iPad.

I have the kindle app on my iPad. I downloaded a kindle version of a songbook. I would like to print out a few pages of the music. I cannot download the file to my computer and cannot print from the iPad as the page format does not allow it.

How can I print out a few pages of a kindle ebook (music) from my iPad.
How can I download this book to my iMac from the iPad. It is NOT in my e books library, but I can only access it from my kindle app.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

One work around is, if the Kindle app allows, make a screen cap of the page and print that.
Hold down the sleep and home keys and relase them together....kinda like you'd press the shutter of a camera, a joint quick down and up
You'll see a white flash and hear a shutter sound. Then look in your photos app and you'll see the images. You can print them just like you'd print a photo.

I cannot print from my iPad. I have the OfficeJet 8500A. The iPad shows it is connected to the printer but will not print.

The printer, HP 8500A, and iPad2 are connected to the network. The iPad shows the printer when I select print from AirPrint. It does not print. Is anyone else having this problem? Has anyone found the fix?

I would just reset the app data. To do this open the ePrint mobile app in the top right hand corner select settings which is a symbol of a wheel or gear scroll to the bottom select reset app data. Now you should get an option to activate app.
Let me know how it goes.

I can't access my forms central from my iPad, please help!

ive been using adobe forms central from my PC for a while now and I love it! But when I'm on the go I take my iPad with me and I can't access from there. why does this happens? And how can I fix it?

A lot of people have been unable to access Yahoo e-mail on their iPhones or iPads. My wife’s iPad was not downloading Yahoo mail, although her iPhone was. Both used IOS 8.2. We tried deleting the account several times and troubleshooting all of the other settings. The problem appears to have been that allowing the IOS to automatically create the account on the iPad resulted in the wrong settings for the incoming server. The following procedure, pieced together from two websites, fixed the problem for us. So far, so good.
https://portal.smartertools.com/kb/a2659/configure-imap-for-iphone-or-ipad.aspx
https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile-mail/imap-server-settings-sln4075.html
On the iPhone, tap Settings.
Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap your Yahoo account, then delete it.
Tap Add Account.
Tap Other.
Tap Add Mail Account.
Complete the Name, Address (email address), Password and Description fields.
Click Next.
Ensure IMAP is selected.
Enter the following incoming mail server information:
Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 993
Requires SSL: Yes
Hostname is mail.yahoo.com.
Username is your full email address
Password is the same password used to access webmail.
Enter the following outgoing mail server information:
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires SSL
Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 465 or 587
Requires SSL: Yes
Requires authentication: Yes
Username is your full email address
Password is the same password used to access webmail. It may have been entered for you.
Tap Next.
The iPhone will establish an SSL connection to your IMAP and SMTP servers.
That’s all!

I can't print from my iPad. HELP"""""

I have an HP 8500 printer. The firmware is updated and I can't seem to discover it in my iPad. Do I have to download an app so I can print?

Make sure your printer is AirPrint enabled.
You may want to try the PrintCentral app if it's not AirPrint enabled.

I cannot print from thunderbird, i need help now.

I use the Daily Thunderbird and It has just stopped being able to print.
Other Programs print.
My config-editor does not include a printer.print line like suggested in some solutions.
I tried resetting all boldened font in config-editor with no change
Started in safe mode
I have reinstalled printer drivers
I may have to stop using thunderbird.

I suggest you use the release build instead of a developer build if minor bugs are of such import to you you want to change mail clients. Daily does not come with a guarantee that it will even start.
Thunderbird has a release version, a beta, an alpha (earlybird) and a developer build (Nightly). While nightly builds tend to be fairly stable, I have had ones that simply crashed over and over, had no write button and a myriad of other odd regressions from changes
As this is a testing bug, have you looked for entries in Bugzilla and filed a bug if you can find nothing relevant? see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/
