IPad recognizes my hp wireless printer but doesn't print.  Why?

iPad recognizes my HP wireless printer but still nothing happens when I press print.  Why?

If your using the option at the top next to the address bar to print, that the box with the arrow, that only looks for airPrint printers. That will not work on your printer.
They do however have apps that allow you to print to your printer, you just need to get one from the app store (read the reviews before downloading the app).
I use the app "print n share" but I can't recommend that one or say its good or bad, it works for whati need it for that's all. You would need one that does what you need and works for you, that's why I say to read the reviews.

  • For no apparent reason, the printing from the iPad to the HP wireless printer was no more possible, while it was still possible from the iPhone.

    For no apparent reason, the printing from the iPad to the HP wireless printer was no more possible, while it was still possible from the iPhone 5. Any idea why?

    Gutenprint drivers are intended for non-laser printers. HP supplies the proper drivers, and you can download the latest version directly from HP's support site. Or you can install the most recent HP drivers provided by Apple.
    Printing speeds do not include the time it may take to transfer data to the printer. It also doesn't take into account the time it takes for the printer to be prepared to start printing. Color is much slower than B/W.
    Contact HP for any additional assistance you may need since these forums do not provide support for non-Apple products.

  • Pls take note that my IPad 3 used to find my printer HP wireless D110. The only thing that I did was to update to IOS 7.  Do you think this is the reason why my iPad cannot find my wireless printer?

    1. Turn the router, iPad and printer off
    2. Turn on the router and then wait 30 seconds
    3. Turn on printer and then wait 30 seconds

    My ipod touch will recognize my home wireless network but when I try to select it the wheel just keeps spinning. It looks as though I have a good signal but my router is an older apple extreme. I've updated to the lasted firmware but it's still not working. I have two older imacs and a wii that connect to the router. Any thoughts? Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
        1.    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
        2.    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
        3.    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Can I set up my iPad to use my wireless printer now that I use Windows 8 Pro on my home network. I moved from Vista a short while ago. thanks

    Can someone explain how I go about setting up my iPad 2 to use a wireless printer as an airprinter - I had the thing working perfectly under Vista, however it all seems so much more reluctant under Windows 8 Pro.
    I'm in the UK, but that doesn't make me a bad person ...
    Thanks

    This is not really an appropriate question for this forum - it's for the specific Apple product called Apple Remote Desktop which is for managing networked Macs - but you forward the ports to the iMac's internal IP address, the one assigned to it via the Airport (setting a static IP address usually is better, though, since it won't change when you restart the Mac). This may be of help:

  • I cannot print from my IPad to my HP4500 wireless printer

    I am trying to print from my new IPad to my HP4500 all in one wireless printer and had to send my email address to HP so they could spend me a confirrational so I can print but I entered my email wrong.  How can I correct it?
    My correct email is [Personal Information Removed]
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    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.

  • Printing from iPad to any shared wireless printer

    Did anyone else lose the AirPrint capability on a brother wireless printer as i did when I upgraded to ios5?
    The error message is "no AirPrint printers found".

    Swim2500-
    If you happened to be using the Print n Share App on your iPad, upgrading to iOS 5 stopped it from being accessible from within other Apps unless they have the "Open In" option.
    If you were sharing your computer's printer as AirPrint over WiFi, you may need to re-install the AirPrint Activator program, or find an updated version.

    Have you tried to reboot your iPad? Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try agian.
    Also, try power cycling your router. Meaning, unplug it, count to 10, then plug it back in. Let it reboot and see if that helps.

  • Want to print from iPad/iphone5 to mx340 wireless. Mx340 doesn't have AirPrint. Bought PrintNShare P

    Want to print from iPad / iphone5 to MX340 which doesn't have AirPrint. Bought Print N Share Pro. Set up options ask if I want to install Mac OS or Microsoft. Will printer still do Microsoft docs if I load OS for iPad?

    Well, without a wireless network she can't surf the 'net!
    Yes, printers require connection to a WiFi network AND they must be AirPrint compliant.

  • My iPad can detect my wireless printer, but when I select 'Print', the message 'The printer is offline' appears.

    I am able to print to the printer with other devices no problem (my laptop, etc.).  It originally did work for about 2 months, then suddenly stopped.  I have the same problem with my iPhone.  We have since changed our wifi hub, but the same problem has persisted.
    It seems strange to me, that when it searches for a printer, it can find the 'Canon MG5350 Series' but then says it is offline when it begins to print.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this has been driving us nuts!!

    If you have change your Wi-Fi hub (router) you must run the CD provided again to put iPad and printer on the same network.
    The CD will put new SSID and Wi-Fi password into printer.

  • Airport Extreme doesn't recognize Canon MX860 wireless printer

    Yesterday I purchased an Airport Extreme router to replace my outdated Linksys. The Apple Genius guys told me the router would NOT connect via ethernet to my very old HP LaserJet 4050N, which I could live with. However, I also have a fairly new Canon MX860 printer that is connected via USB to my MacBook Pro and also it was previously set up for wireless connectivity through my Linksys home network. Now I cannot get the Airport Extreme to recognize the printer, which is in a different room from the router and modem. Please help! I can't afford all new peripherals just because I upgraded my router.

    The Apple Genius guys told me the router would NOT connect via ethernet to my very old HP LaserJet 4050N, which I could live with.
    Not sure why they gave you that advice. Connecting a network-ready printer (wire or wireless or both) to the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) should be no different than connecting it to any other manufacturer's router. In this case, the AEBSn would NOT be providing print server functionality and the printer would have this duty. This should hold true for both the HP and the new Canon printers.
    Now I cannot get the Airport Extreme to recognize the printer, which is in a different room from the router and modem. Please help! I can't afford all new peripherals just because I upgraded my router.
    How do you have the AEBSn configured with the other router? Regardless, what is the make & model of this other router?

  • Can I print from my iPad to a Dell Wireless printer

    I have a v305 wireless I am trying to see if I can use it with my ipad2.

    Barbara-
    There are no Dell printers listed as being AirPrint-capable at <http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356>.  I suggest you search the iTunes App store for a Dell App, which might be free.
    There are printing Apps such as Print n Share and PrintCentral.  They work fairly well, but can only be accessed from within other Apps that have the "Open In" option.
    Besides purchasing an AirPrint printer, your best option may be to share your computer's printer as AirPrint over WiFi.  Programs that can do this include Printopia and FingerPrint.  Your computer must be on and awake any time you want to print.
