Is it possible to print from an apple device without a wifi network?
Is it possible to print from an apple device without a wifi network?
I cannot make out the text, but my previous apply assumed that you wanted to create a wireless network.....without Internet access...... using an Apple device, like an AirPort Express.
It's simple....just "create a wireless network with a name and password of your choice. You will be notified of an "error" that you do not have an Internet connection. Simply click to "ignore" that error you will have a green light on the AirPort.
If the Apple guys told you that this is not possible, then they are simply wrong.
Devices will be able to connect to the wireless network and print to the printer....assuming that it is AirPrint compatible model.
My guess would be that the printer that you already have is not an AirPrint compatible model. In that case, the Apple store guys were partially correct. But, there are Apps that you can install on the iPhone and iPad that will allow printing to most printers, even if they are not AirPrint compatible.
If you have a question about how to configure an AirPort Express or AirPort Extreme to create a wireless network.....without an Internet connection.....we can probably help.

Hello,
I was wondering if there was a wy to have your pictures printed from your IPhone to a Walgreens or CVS?
Thanks in Advance,
Donna2920Walgreens has an app - not sure about CVS.
A call to either of those stores should be able to clarify the exact steps. It must be easy though - I know lots of people who do it. -
I have an epsom Stylus SZ218 printer hardwired to my I my MAC and wish to print from my I Pad any ideas?
Epson SX218 does not appear on the list of AirPrint compatible printers....see below for details....so it would not be be possible to print from the iPad to this printer unless you add additional software that might allow this.

Is it possible to print from Windows 8.1 to a printer connected to the USB port on an Airport Express?
a) HP printer with USB port only (no ethernet port) connected to Airport Express
b) No issue printing from Macs
Tests
1) Installed Bonjour 2 - does not find printer (now uninstalled)
2) Bonjour 3 is listed in programs but no way to access
3) Using TCPIP address (and no Bonjour) gives 'Unsupported Personality' error when printing test page
Regards
Richard
p.s. why are all Windows 8.1 questios n the forum 'Locked' with no reply?This is possible, but not with Bonjour or any other fixes. It is just a printer set up based on the Port name of the Airport, 10.0.1.1.
I found the answer on YouTube, Title: Windows Printing For Apple AirPort Extreme without Bonjour Wireless wifi. -
Hi....is it possible to print from iPad to a HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909 printer? Thanks for any help!
The HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909 is not an AirPrint printer, if that is what you're asking. HP has proprietary apps that may be suitable for your needs.
To print directly from an iPad / iPhone you will need an AirPrint compatible printer or another device to act as a print server. That can be a Mac computer running Printopia ($19.95 with free trial) or handyPrint (donation - supported). The Mac must be "on" but may be asleep for them to work. Equivalent PC options may exist but you're on your own finding them.
You can also buy this standalone print server:
http://www.lantronix.com/it-management/xprintserver/xprintserver.html
These options enable you to use any printer available to your Mac, even older ones that may predate AirPrint by decades.
Otherwise you will need to buy an AirPrint printer or multifunction device. -

Can i print from my apple in Australia and have a delivered in the USA?
Hello,
I'm wondering if I can order a photo to be printed from my apple in Australia's hard drive and have it printed and delivered in the USA? (New York)
Very greateful for any help!
If I am unable to do this - are there any US resident out there who can suggest a online printing/delivering service.
Thanks, NicoleNo, but there is a workaround...
From the iPhoto Help menu ...
Ordering overview
You can easily order books, cards, and calendars that you create using iPhoto. You can also order prints of your photos.
To order professionally printed books, cards, or calendars, or prints of your photos, you need:
An Internet connection
An Apple Store account
If you previously ordered from an Apple website, including the iTunes Store, you already have an Apple Store account and an Apple ID. If you don’t, you’re guided through setting up an account the first time you order prints, books, cards, or calendars.
Orders must be placed, paid for, and shipped within your country. If you order in the United States, you can have your order shipped anywhere within the United States; if you order in France, you can have your order shipped anywhere within France; and so on.
To send prints, books, cards, or calendars to an address outside your country, first have the order shipped to yourself (in your country) and then mail it to another country. -
While printing from word appl. printer after each line puts in number of page,
while printing from word appl. printer after each line puts in number of page, so I do not print 3 pages but 5 instead. What to do?
What printer models is this intended for? I assume it is aimed at the lower end inkjets, with the suggestion of loading 10-25 sheets of paper.

I am trying to print from my Apple IPad to my Inkjet 2542 printer, it asks for a password when my printer is found, not sure what to put

Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
Assuming you have installed your printer onto your home wireless network, your iPad Application is asking for your Wireless passphrass / password to your network.
Reference: HP Deskjet 2540 series User Guide
See Page 49
=====================================
Take a look at the following:
Add Device to Printer
You need the first part for Printer Software for your printer and you need "An App for That" in the Mobile printing section where you complete Steps 1-2-3.
Skip all the parts in the middle having to do with ePrint and HP Connected -- your printer does not have ePrint so you don't need to worry about any of that.

Printing from My Apple i-pad wireless to my HP Photosmart Plus Series 209B
Unable to print from my Apple i-pad using a wireless Photosmart Plus series - 209B. Says no printer available and finding no where to change that.
Hello 518,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
It would appear that the HP Photosmart Plus 209B is not compatible with AirPrint. Without AirPrint you can only print via an App.
I suggest the ePrint App. Getting Started with HP ePrint Mobile Apps<---

Is it possible to print from my iPad to a Airprint-enabled printer in a wired LAN.
Is it possible to print from my iPad to a Airprint-enabled printer in a wired LAN? My iPad is via WiFi connected to that LAN. The WiFi connection of the printer isn't used.
My Canon MX715 printer is wired connected to the router. My iPad is via WiFi connected to the router.
The printer could be connected via WiFi but I prefer the wired connection. So the printer is part of the LAN to which I get access with my iPad via a WiFi connection. A network scanner shows them all connected into the LAN.
My Windows Laptop also connected via WiFi to the same LAN finds the printer and works well every time.
The iPad has troubles to find the printer.
After a couples of hours by trial and error I found an app of Canon Easy PhotoPrint. After I installed the app I found my printer and could print. It worked for the apps at my iPad that have the print feature. After a while I discovered that the different apps at my iPad don't find the printer immediately every time when needed. After multiple trials it works again.
So the big question that remains: Why doesn't it works always? Have I initialize something after start up or wake up the print access to the Lan? -
HP Deskjet 3050A-J611a - laptop wireless - desktop wired possible to print from it?
I just bought the HP Deskjet 3050A-J611a and installed it wireless on my laptop. (printer is in another room) We also have a desktop computer (in my daughter her room) which is connected to the internet with a cable. I was wondering if it would be possible to also print from the desktop computer without having to use a wireless Wifi USB stick or something. (the modem is right next to the computer so preferably we would like to leave it wired) Maybe there is a way to print using the modem as the connection? Thanks in advance
This question was solved.
View Solution.Hi Michelle150573,
You can share the printer from the laptop, but the most reliable way to install it on the desktop would be to infest in a wireless USB adapter, and then install it wirelessly to her computer. Wireless USB adapters run from $10 to $30 on newegg.com

Is it possible to print from IPad to Lexmark Impact S301?
I have a Lexmark Impact S301 wireless all-in-one printer. Works great, from my laptop. Is it possible to print from my Ipad or to this printer? ... or is it just too antiquated?
Thanks. Jiinoz. I did. It can't find my printer address when I click to "search network." I don't know where the address is to enter it manually.
