I pad does not find my AirPrint printer even though it prints the printer test page okay

My XP 400 Epson AirPrint printer is installed on my I Pad 2.  The I pad requested that a test page be printed after printer installed and the printer printed the test page. When I want to print a web page or a text document the I pad cannot find an AirPrint printer.  What can be done to correct this error.

Dick-
The XP-400 is listed on Apple's list of AirPrint printers, so it should work as soon as you pair it with your WiFi.  No other printer installation is involved.  I assume your XP-400 has the latest updates from Epson.
Are you using an Epson printing App, by any chance?  The Epson printing App does not use AirPrint, it uses the printer's native printing language.  Other Apps on the iPad can not print via the Epson App.
In other words, something else is keeping your iPad from seeing the printer.  One cause might be that your WiFi router does not correctly handle Bonjour data required by AirPrint.  If that is your problem, contact the router's manufacturer to see if there is a change in its setup or a firmware update that will solve the problem.

    I tried to rename a file, it gave me an error message (can't remember the number - 43??) and then the file disappeared from the original folder. When I do a search, the file comes up under the new name, but it does not show a path, and even though preview shows the contents, I can't open the document (Powerpoint) and I can't move the document. I tried "Copy" and paste but it doesn't work. I tried "Share" with Airdrop and iChat, but the file is inaccessible. When i try to rename the file, it says the filename is too long.
    When I try to open it, it says the alias is not good, and asks if I want to fix the alias. I'm afraid to do that and lose all access to this document.
    Right now, it feels like a ghost document - it is on the computer intact, but it is in an undisclosed location and inaccessible.
    Please help!!

    I was able to resolve this by repairing permissions, even though no permissions error was listed specifically for that file.
    I could also have recovered it through Time Machine, but I'm interested in knowing how not to have this happen again!
    I was afraid of rebooting and possibly losing track even of the ghost.
    I did not try EasyFind - I'll keep that in mind next time.
    Thanks for all the comments.

  • My iMac does not find my wifi printer or my Chromecast.

    My iMac does not find my wifi printer or my Chromecast. I was able to ping the chrome cast and printer and I'm able to connect to these devices with my windows computer, iPhone and iPad. I have OS X 10.9.2. I'm able to print by setting up the printer using the IP address that was assigned by my router instead of letting my iMac do the finding. It seems that the iMac either does not like the info that is receiving or something is blocking the signal (other than the firewall, which is off). Could someone have an idea what the issue might be?

    Hi MikeMart0923,
    If you are having issues adding or connecting to your WiFi printer from your iMac, you may find the following articles helpful (apologies if you have already seen them):

  • When I open firefox before connecting (via 56k modem) or if I leave a previous section open, disconnect and then reconnect, firfox does not work, it remains offline, even though internet is connected. I have to close firefox and reopen

    When I open firefox before connecting (via 56k modem) or if I leave a previous section open, disconnect and then reconnect, firfox does not work, it remains offline, even though internet is connected. I have to close firefox and reopen

    Thanks for the reply. I never get the option to "Restore Previous History" from History. I don't even have the box checked that asks to delete the history when Firefox closes. I don't know what's wrong, no matter what, I always lose everything. I have the box marked "Show my windows and tabs from last time" for when I open Firefox, but it never shows that, just my homepage. Also, when I check my History, it only shows the pages that I opened since I started Firefox, nothing from before. Even if I were to open up 10 pages now, close Firefox, and open it, the history would only show the homepage that opened this time, not any of the 10 pages that I opened 5 minutes ago.

  • ITunes music files cannot be edited, and new music files imported.  The messages says I do not have enough access privileges even though I am the administrator of the system.

    Since installing the latest version of iTunes all my music files cannot be edited, and I cannot import new music files into iTunes.  The messages says I do not have enough access privileges even though I am the administrator of the system.  If anyone can help me sort this out I would be really grateful.  I have checked the read and write privileges for all the iTunes folders and it all seems in order so I can't understand it.
    In general, I am getting really frustrated with Apple.  They seem to be getting ever more controlling in their approach to their consumers.  I need to edit music file information as I am a dj.  And why can't I import music, unless I buy it from iTunes?  Most of all, why can't I use the devices I paid a lot of money for in the way I want to use them, and not be forced to coerced to use apple's fee paying services (iCloud, iTunes).
    I have used apple computers since the early 1990's, but in the last year I have gotten rid of my iPhone and my iPad and replaced them with Android devices.  Much better and much less control.  Perhaps it is time to switch from Apple altogether.

  • My I pad does not find my HP 7525 as an airprint printer

    I am on a wireless network at my home but when I try to print with my HP Photosmart 7525 printer my Ipad says no airprinters found.  I can print from my android phone and my Ipad is on the correct network.  ???

    Hi,
    Sorry to hear you are having problems printing.
    Try restarting your apple device - It's a simple fix that sometimes helps re-establish the connection to the printer.
    Other thing to check would be that there have been no recent changes to the wifi password.

  • Scan app does not find 4625 sacnner / printer in windows 8.1

    I posted a while ago that I could not install the printer / scanner software on my laptop runningWindows 7.1  because it would not recognise my printer, although
    1. I provided the correct IP address when asked by the installer
    2. The installer worked perfectly on my  desktop PC
    3. I could see my printer/scanner with this IP address on my home wifi network in my browser
    4. I could install the printer functionality  (but not the scanner)  over the wifi through Windows by searching and selecting from its list of HP drivers
    So I gave up after trying many times over many days.
    Subsequently. I  have upgraded to Windows 8.1.  The HP installer still does not work. But by letting Windows automatically find the printer (only) driver over the network I can (as before) print to a thing called HP Deskjet 4620 Series Class Driver.
    Now I see Windows 8.1 has a separate App for the HP scanner called also HP Deskjet 4620 Series Class Driver. This, as before, cannot connect to the scanner. But:  this is interesting.  While trying unsucessfully  to connect, it displays an IP address for this HP Deskjet 4620 Series scanner which is different from the printer IP Address. (It is not a valid IP address on my network, I looked though my browser). It seem to me that if I could somehow change the scanner IP address to the correct one, the scanner would work.
    Any ideas?

    Hello Mikets ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having connectivity issues with the scanning portion of the printer.
    I suggest we try the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
    Write me back and let me know if this helped or not.
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue and you would like to seek more options, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you.

  • How can I get my FFox6 to remember passwords; it does not offer to remember them, even though box in Options is checked?

    I use Windows 7 with FFox6.
    In Tools>>Options>>Security have checked in box "Remember passwords" However when entering passwords in web-sites FFox does not even offer the options of whether to remember the passwords or not.
    Is FFox 6 still at experimental / trial stage with this function not yet enabled in development? How can I enable this function? OR will it work if I should uninstal and reinstal FFox?
    Thanx

    1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) for about 10 seconds

  • "Organize Bookmarks" does not appear under Bookmarks menu, even though Help advises to go there.

    I've needed to eliminate Bookmarks. Because I have no "Organize Bookmarks" or "Manage Bookmarks" option under the Bookmarks menu, I've tried dragging bookmarks off the list onto my desktop. I've tried right-clicking to get a "delete" option (but there is none). I've gone to "Help" where I'm advised to click on the Bookmarks menu item, select "Organize Bookmarks," and proceed from there. An image of the items in "Organize Bookmarks" appears in this "Help" instruction. BUT -- "Organize Bookmarks" does not appear when I click the Bookmarks menu item.

    That menu item was changed to '''Show All Bookmarks''' in Firefox 4.0.
