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?

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.

Hi,
Firstly please check to see if your printer in the list:

If YES, you can use this to fix/setup:
iPad: http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/airprint/
iPhone: http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/airprint/
If NO you have to print using other apps (if applicable) such as

Can you print from a iPad to an AirPrint printer without an Internet connection?

Can you print from a iPad to an AirPrint printer without an Internet connection?

General Jer-
Maybe.
If you can set up your AirPrint printer's WiFi to create an Ad Hoc Network, then your iPad can connect its WiFi directly to it and be able to print.
I have the HP D110 AirPrint printer. As I recall, it was set up in Ad Hoc Network mode out of the box. I had to change the setting in order to update its firmware over the internet. You probably should do that as well, to be sure it has the latest firmware.
If you happen to have an old Apple AirPort WiFi base station, you can use its WiFi network for printing. It does not require an internet connection to print. Other brands may work as well, but some do not correctly handle the Bonjour data required by AirPrint.

You might want to take a look at an app called Printopia to see if it will do what you want. There is a free trial, so you will know if it will work before you buy.

How can I print from my ipad 3 to a mobile printer that only has bluetooth? Is this possible?

I have an iPad 3 with the most up to date iOS, and am looking to be able to print directly to a mobile printer. I will be working in a remote area and will not have my computer with me, just the ipad. The printer is an officejet 150 mobile all-in-one with built in blue tooth. I can get it to work great from my laptop, but I need it to work from the ipad, any way of doing this? If so what print app will work? Or can you only print via wireless on select printers.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

You must have WiFi and an AirPrint enabled printer http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356 check to see if yours is AirPrint enabled or the manufacturer has an update to make it so.

How do I print from my iPad 3 using a Canon printer?

I just got the new iPad 3 and I was wondering if anybody could help me out. I hope this is possible, but I was trying to print from my iPad 3 using my Canon MP640r printer. I understand that it's not a Mac printer and there are only certain printers that are automatically compatible, but I figured with all of the capabilities of the iPad that somebody must have figured out a way of doing this.
This wouldn't be the end of the world for me but I would really like to get my iPad to print from my Canon MP640r as it would be the icing on the cake and make my life a lot easier.
Thanks a lot.

Thank you so much, that worked like a charm.
I appreciate it a lot.

Can I print from my ipad on my Canon MP495 printer?

Can I print wireless from my iPad to my Canon MP495 printer.

If you can share that printer with other devices on your LAN, you should be able to print using AirPrint. You will have to activate AirPrint in Mac OS X if you have a Mac. Or you will need to install it on a Windows box. Then pair your iPad with your computer over Bluetooth and the shared printer should be available to your iPad for printing.
Activate in Mac OS X with this little app;

How do I print from an iPad to a windows network printer?

How do I print from an iPad 2 to a windows network printer (without AirPrint)?

Thx for the suggestion, but it defeats the purpose by having to have my desktop computer running. I am looking for an app or hardware device that will allow me to print directly from my Ipad to my printers without having to turn on a computer to do it.
I have tried the Lantronix xprint server and while it works with my older Brother Laser it does not work with my newer Kodak ESP Office 6150 (and it doesn't look like they are even interested in attempting to write support for it into their printer list)
I have tried every app in the app store and none of them do the job WITHOUT having to have a computer running on the network.
Let me re-state the problem...
I want to print from either my Iphone 4 or my original version Ipad to my network attached printers without having to have a computer running on the network to do it. I have a Brother HL-5150D laser printer hooked to my apple airport extreme's usb port and a Kodak ESP Office 6150 connected to the network via WiFi. How can I do this.
