I'm trying to print from my iPad with a Brother HL-2240.

I already have the Brother printing app but my printer doesn't show in the list. Any ideas of how to fix this? Or another app I could get?

Ideally your printer would be airprint compatible - heres Apples official list:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
but if you would like a short cut you could try an app like print n share which should work for most printers:

  • 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.

    Your Brother HL2710 needs to be an airprinter.  I do not see it on the list.

  • How i can print from my iPad with airport expres

    How i can print from my iPad with airport expres

    Hi - you would need to purchase a printer that is enabled to print from an iPad, iPhone or iPod - these would include ePrint, iPrint and AirPrint printers - you would then install the appropriate app on you iPad and be able to print - the installation setup for each type of printer would enable you to do this.

  • 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.

    If your printer is on this list, then it's an air print enabled printer and your iPad should print to it with no other fiddling.
    If it's not an air print printer you can look in the app store and see if Brother has any apps that can help you, or any work arounds they support.
    if not, then you can look into third party printing apps. I used print n share, but I also see printopia and print central recommended, and I'm sure there are others.

  • How can I print from my ipad to a Brother LC985?

    Does anyone know how I can print from my Ipad 3 to a Brother LC 985 wireless printer or what do I need to download for this?

    Check here (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356) for your printer. If it is on the list, you will need to set it up on your wireless network and possibly update the firmware
    If it is not on the list - meaning it is not Airprint capable - check the app store and see if Brother has a print app for it
    Or, check the app store for third party print apps that may work with it.

  • HT4356 Help printing from the ipad with the Canon MG6220

    I have the canon mg6220...i can get my imac and iphone 4 to print...but can not get the ipad2 to print to it.  It keeps saying "no airprint printers found"  Yes it is connected to the same wifi network and yes everything is up to date.  At first, the ipad2 didn't have the IOS 5.1 so I thought that was the answer, but I updated it and STILL cannot get it to print.  Just keeps saying no airprint printers found. 
    Any suggestions?

    Have you tried to restart your iPad?
    Can the iPad use Airprint on other Wi-Fi networks?
    Check this article out -> iOS: AirPrint 101
    Additional Information
    If you are unable to print, or if you see the message "No AirPrint Printers Found"
    Verify that the printer:
    Has power and is turned on.   If it has power, turn the printer off and then on again to see if that resolves the issue.
    Is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as the iOS device.
    Has the latest firmware version installed.
    Has paper with enough ink or toner installed.
    Is free of any errors displayed on the printer's control panel.
    If necessary, consult the printer documentation or contact the printer vendor for help with  the above steps.
    Notes:
    Avoid connecting AirPrint-capable printers to the USB port of Apple AirPort Base Stations or Time Capsules. Doing so can enable traditional AirPort printing from a Mac, but it will not enable AirPrint functions for iOS devices. If you cannot use Wi-Fi networking to connect the AirPrint-capable printer, use an Ethernet connection from the AirPrint-capable printer to the Apple AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule.
    Wi-Fi printers can take several minutes to join a Wi-Fi network after being turned on. Ensure that the printer is connected to the Wi-Fi network before attempting to print.

    Out of paper print error whenever trying to print from my iPad or cell phone
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi,
    The default settings for Airprint on Apple devices is to print photos from the photo tray and all other documents from the main plain paper tray. If there is no photo paper present when you try to print a photo, you'll get an out of paper message, even though there might be plain paper present.
    For more flexability in terms of media and tray selection, please download the HP e-Pprint app and print from within the app.

    Hi back Cmwc,
    Okay - I reread that document I listed above, and picked out the steps that I think will help the most. Give them a try, and see if that'll do the trick - if they don't work, I would call Apple Support.
    1. Turn the router, the Apple device, and the HP printer off
    2. Turn the router and the printer back on
    3. Make sure that the printer is on the network
    4. Turn on the Apple device and check the network connection
    5. Upgrade the Apple device to the most current version of iOS
    6. Make sure that your router can forward Bonjour packets, and then restart the Apple device
    7. Restart the Apple device
    8. Update your router with the most recent firmware, and then try to print
