Ios 4.2 print support drivers

Hi,
I know its early days and 4.2 is not available yet, but apple have posted a new 4.2 page showing the changes etc. My question is will the print over wifi require a pc/mac as a bridge to the printer or will the print file go directly to a wifi enabled printer? If its a direct link will the printer drivers need to be loaded onto the ipad? What do the current printer apps do?

All any of us, your fellow users, know is what Apple's posted. We'll all have to wait for further information from Apple to know for sure, though nothing I saw in the keynote indicated that a computer would be needed as a bridge.
Regards.

    Just upgraded to snow leopard, downloader apple support drivers for canon mp620.  Why won't a printer list display in add printer window?

    Assuming the MP620 is connected to your wireless network, then there are two components to this device - the printer and the scanner. The printer uses Canon proprietary software while the scanner is supported by Apple's Bonjour service. So in many cases, you will at least see the scanner, shown as Bonjour Scanner in the Kind column, while the printer can take longer to appear and is shown as canonijnetwork in the Kind column. If you cannot see either then you have a network issue. Try turning off the MP620 for a minute and then turning back on. Then see if the scanner / printer component appears in the Add Printer window. If you still don't see either, then confirm the MP and the Mac are using the same network. If you know the MP's IP address you can use Network Utility to Ping the address. You can also enable Bonjour Bookmarks in Safari preferences and when selected, the MP620 should appear.

  • Windows 7 printer support

    I have been searching the HP site, but am unable to find out which HP printers will be supported by Windows 7.  I have 2 printers, an HP 1018 laserjet, and a Deskjet 5940.  I've run the Windows 7 compatibility software and it tells me those 2 printers are not supported.

    Drivers for Windows Vista will work in Windows 7.
    That's what you need to do, it's simple:
    1. Download Vista driver for your device.
    2. Manually unpack files to any folder.
    3. Right click on executable file - Properties. Tab Compatibility. Select "Run this program in compatibility mode for" and select Windows Vista. (You may need administrator privileges to do that). Click OK.
    4. That's all. Run this file and install driver as usual. This way you can install almost any device, not only printer.
    (I have LaserJet 1018 working well)

  • Download usb printing support

    OK I have unfortunatly have windows 8.1 only because my old computer crashed and was forced to buy it. I hate it for my desktop. Aside from it having to restart IE all the time I am suddenly having problems with my printer. I have a HP Laserjet 1100.  Yes its old but it prints wonderfully. People think I must own an expensive printer when they see the copies. Anyway, the last time I printed on my computer was in October of 2014 and it printed fine. Suddenly it won't print now. I tried removing and reinstalling to no avail. I Dled the HP print and scan doctor. It said the drivers were installed but that I needed to click the Get Installer button to DLed the USB printing support.  I was expecting it to take me to a page where I could read a disclaimer and click a DL button but instead it to me to the main DL center page. So I did a search for USB printing support and tried DLing a couple different things but DR still says I need to DL the USB printing support. Can someone please get me off this ride.  Thank you!

    Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
    I am not a Laser Printer Expert;  I could possibly be wrong about this:
    I do not see an answer that contradicts that you have already found:  There is not a solution for Windows 8.1 for this vintage Printer.
    I spent some time looking at the Windows 7 solution and even for that OS the possibilities are severely limited -- the scan features are stripped and much of the printer's functionality are no longer available.  I would not recommend something so radical as downgrading to Windows 7 as a means to save the Printer.  You could print, maybe, after a bit of work -- but the functionality is gone.
    It might be time to consider an printer upgrade.   Sigh.  There are some good choices in new Laser Printers if you decide to give one of them a chance.
    Good Luck.

  • Generic IEEE 1284.4 printing support [ Edited ]Re: Generic IEEE 1284.4 printing support [ Edited ]

    Hi, I am following this post as I am having the same problem that I am trying to install LaserJet 1300 on my Window XP computer.  I see the post indicates IEEE 1284.4 printer support is included in Windows 7.  Does that mean I installed wrong printer driver?  From the device driver page, I only see driver for XP 64 bits, Windows 7 and Windows 8 and I selected Windows 7 32bits (because I have Windows XP 32 bits system).  or if there is IEEE 1284.4 printer support driver for Windows XP can download?

    The basic print driver for your printer are already included within Windows 7 32 bit OS.
    1. Plug a USB cable from your printer to your PC.
    2. Windows 7 is suppose to automatically detect and install built in drivers.
    NOTE: Computer may need to be connected to the internet in order for Windows to automatically download the updated built-in driver list.

    By the way, IEEE 1284.4 printing support refers to the much older bi-directional parallel port printers.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_1284 
    Windows may be generically calling it that because it does not yet recognize your printer.

  • Installed WIndows 7 & correct bootcamp drivers, windows will not activate "hot fix" or "Support drivers"

    Hello, i hope someone can help,
    i have repeated this whole process 3 times already, it has taken 8 strait hours of my time and i still have had no success.
    QUICK SUMMERY
    To put it simply, After windows is up and running on my mac, the wireless network wont work, so i cannot download the hot fix, and the support driver files from bootcamp will not open because it says they are not "32 Valid" ?. But im using a 64bit disk.
    The wireless network adaptor automatically doesn't work on windows right after installation,
    so i had to load the Hot Fix onto an SD card along with the bootcamp drivers, then open the hotfix file in windows.
    The first time i was able to install the fix, windows restarted and installed the update, logged back on... and nothing changed.
    At that point i attempted to open the "Setup"  file in the bootcamp support folder, and an error message came up saying it wasn't valid.
    LONGER EXPLANATION OF MY COMPLETE PROCESS: (to cancel out any questions)
    i was able to find my support driver from here:
    http://swscan.apple.com/content/catalogs/others/index-leopard-snowleopard.merged -1.sucatalog
    its some old fashion coded page that has a bunch of apple drivers you can download by pasting one of the codes in your browser,
    i searched for bootcamp support drivers, and found the code for my exact model (Mac Pro 8,2)
    i was able to manually downloaded the drivers instead of  using bootcamp assistant.
    As a side note,
    i was able to download the bootcamp drivers via boot camp assistant after the 5th try,
    so now i have both files that i know are supposed to work 100%. they are loaded and unzipped on an SD card like they are supposed to be for when i open windows.
    I have a Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium x64 bit CD from the inlaws so i used that CD after i partitioned my drive in bootcamp.
    Bootcamp run like it was supposed to, and i followed step by step instructions in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVfRQ0YIDUI&feature=related
    once windows was finished installing,
    it automatically would not detect a network card, so i couldn't connect to the internet and download the apples bug fix. (The Hot fix)
    instead i downloaded the hot fix on a separate SD card, turned windows back on and loaded the hot fix from the SD card.
    Windows installed the hot fix update, restarted, but nothing changed.
    Ive even tried skipping right to uploading the drivers, and windows wont activate the support because it says its not "32 Valid"
    I completely removed windows 7 vis bootcamp to rinse and repeat hoping i made a simple mistake, but no same thing happened.
    Conclusion
    -im Wondering if i should "Istall important Windows Updates" during the begining of windows preperation...
    maybe that will fix the issues of it not reconizing wierless network, and not being able to upen up the bootcamp file?
    (it says you are not supposed to install any windows updates untill the HOT FIX and BOOTCAMP SUPPORT is activated on windows)

    You have been too cleaver for a Boot Camp install.
    The partition system does NOT like anything other than a standard arrangement which creates 4 partitions.
    EFI -200mb
    OSx - Extended Journaled
    Buffer-200mb
    Windows -NTFS
    Return to OSx -Open Boot Camp tool from the utilities folder reset to a single partition.
    Start again and when you get to Windows - Let all the drivers load on the CREATED partition. Use the External for storage !
    Just for your information, as it doesn't seem you have ever used BC.
    When starting the boot camp assistant the first thing it want to do is download the Windows Support drivers and asks you to save them to a DVD, it will also allow you to save them to your OS X hard drive or to any drive connected to the system. Once those drivers are downloaded it then starts the Win install. What you must do is copy those support drives to a media that Windows can See and Read from. Like a DVD or a thumb drive formatted FAT32
    No where in the OPs post does he say anything about fooling with any partitions on his internal drive other then creating the BC partition.
    His problem is he saved those support files to a Mac OS X formatted external drive. Windows can not read Mac Extended (Journaled) formatted drives. So he can't load the drivers for Windows until he copies those support files ove to something that Windows can read.

  • Keyboard does not work after using Support Drivers

    I have a Macbook Pro 4,1 15" 2.4GHz C2D, and managed to get Bootcamp installed on it with Win7 Home Pro. I have verified that it runs correctly, but it is missing many of the drivers needed to make things run smoothly. I no longer have my Leopard disks that the machine came, so I figured the WindowsSupportDrivers would be the way to go.
    When I install them and reboot, the keyboard does not work. When I hit capslock, I get the caution notice indicating underneath my password field indicating the capslock key is on, so it's not like my entire keyboard is disabled. The system is unusable right now, since I have to enter my password to login, and it does not take any keyboard input. Using an external keyboard did not resolve this issue.
    I did a system restore to get it back to a usable state for the time being.
    Is there an alternative to the BCA support drivers or the Leopard disk? What's going on with my keyboard after the driver update?

    Maybe you have installed obsolete drivers. If you have Lion, open Boot Camp Assistant (Applications > Utilities) in OS X and download Boot Camp drivers

  • Print only drivers for windows xp

    Does HP or anyone else have print-only drivers for the photosmart 1215 or deskjet 3915 printers?
    I tried to install two printers on my laptop and it has been a disaster!

    Honestly yes, I've installed the chipset
    I've got it from MSI, for A215-S7422 the chipset is M690V as mentioned on Specification.
    There are 4 variants for this type, but I am not sure it's for Notebooks. I think it's for PC-Desktop.
    For your information,
    It work unproperly. Some keyboard button doesn't work at all, e.g : Fn+Brightness ; Fn+Mute; Fn+Display Mode; etc.
    You said "But is this really important if all your devices are working properly?"
    I say : not to really important, but I like a perfect one and normal condition.
    Please, waiting for your advice Master.

  • Boot camp 4 can't install windows support drivers

    Hi everyone,
    I have the new imac 27" with thunderbolt and preinstalled Lion. They dont give you a CD.
    I run Boot Camp assistant (version 4.0) and try to install windows on a purchased DVD Windows 7 x64 ( i am a recent convert to mac but still need some windows proggys.)
    Ok so once I run the installation It asks me to download the windows support drivers... I do this but then it stops 3/4 through the process and comes up with an error "can't install windows support drivers".
    Do any of you out know how to fix this???
    Also If I dont use the option to update the software before installing and just select install windows 7 (second option) from a disc. It installs windows fine BUT it wont install any of the network, usb, camera, graphics and sound drivers. so basicaly I am blocked from the internet for windows to update the drivers. I also cant get the driver files from another computer as the mac in windows mode can recognised usb sticks as the drivers arent installed.
    I need help urgently on this as it is doing my head
    Thanks in advance.
    Daniel!

    Yes, but.
    Open Network Preferences>Network>Advanced>Proxies and uncheck everything (try Passive Mode on, and off, but no auto Proxies)
    And try again.

  • Im running a mac air with osx 10.9.2 and i tried installing a legal version of windows 7 OEM but it tells me that support drivers are missing so i have to cancel installation and do the option   cmd   p r to get it to boot.

    when i use boot campcamp it gets to installing then it tells me that support files are missing. how can i install w7 in boot camp on a make air osx 10.9.2 i am using a iso win 7 sp1 image and the copy is legal. it get stuck on saying it cant find support drivers. I dont like windows 8 and would rather use w7 (i dont like windows at all but need it for using VB for a class at school) can i install a linux version like scientific instead of windows ? if i can ill just buy a cheap PC to use VB on

    i have a usb super drive can i use that instead ? i dont have another usb stick and the one i have has 27G of data on it and tranfering it takes time. I can buy one if thats the only way to do it on a mac air but i figure i have the super drive and could put the w7 support files on it and i have the w7 on disk and iso img saved on the mac.
    BTW
    Thank you for helping me. I know it can be a pain in the butt helping people when the tasks seems so straight forward. I really appriciate your time

  • Boot camp and windows 7 but window wont find usb to download support drivers

    Used Boot Camp to partition, downloaded support onto USB zip drive, installed Windows 7 fine I thought, but in Windows 7 now it will not find my USB so i can't download the support drivers from my zip drive back into Windows.  No internet found either (probably because i can't download the support drivers).  HELP QUICKLY please!!!

    Boot Camp in Windows has nothing to do with Boot Camp in OS X. So, there was no need for you to reinstall Leopard.
    Since you're using Leopard, your Leopard disc will have the 2.xx drivers, which, (apparently) will not install in Windows 7.
    You'll need to get a hold of the 3.0 drivers. The 3.1 update downloaded from the Apple site won't install without 3.0 drivers installed.

  • Can you print on a cd providing your printer supports it?

    Can you print on a cd providing your printer supports it?

    Do you have an application that's designed for printing on CD/DVD discs?  If your Canon has that capability it probably has an app that will do it. 
    I use Discus which works extremely well IMO.  It allows me to create some rather innovative labels:
