Do you have an AirPrint enabled printer on your local network?

I thought Air Print was a free app?
It's not an app. It's part of the OS.
Tap the curved arrow at top of the running app to select to print.

HT201335 I tapped the home button twice, saw the apps, scrolled left to right, still do not see the air play icon

I am trying to mirror my iPad 2 with my Apple TV . I hit the home button twice, scrolled through the app icons but still do not see the air play icon? I did check to confirm that both devices are on the same network.

Yes they are both on the same network and I enabled air play on the TV. I finally located the icon on my iPad last night and succeeded in mirroring. It seems the instructions from apple were confusing me. They said tap the home button twice and then scroll to the right. The icon however is on the left side of the screen and shows as what I would call a button as opposed to an icon, located among the buttons of a mini player. Anyway, found it last night and now am enjoying the mirroring feature. Thanks for all the help.

Hi Sukanto,
Welcome! I didn't think this was something you see there anyway, I could be wrong. What operating system to you have?
Can you see the printer icon in control panel? Let me know if you need help to answer these questions.
Cheers,

Which Mac do you have? It needs to be 2011 or later and running Mountaion Lion (10.8)

Can you change the colour of the menu bar, it's grey, you have a job to see bookmarks,history,printer icons. Is there a way to colour them to make them easier to see.Already using large icons, but still difficult to see icons for elderly relative.

FF4 superb, install it yeasterday, but the only gripe is the grey menu bar, been in to customize, but no opitions to change/ add colour.

You can do that by using a theme such as Firefox 3 theme for Firefox 4 - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/firefox-3-theme-for-firefox

When using Pages, I can't seem to print an envelope. I use file, then print, and see the printer icon come up in the dock showing it received the info but then quickly disappears and nothing gets printed. When I check the printer queue there is nothing

Bear with me, I've not done this before. I can't seem to reliably print an envelope when using Pages. I go to "file" click "print", click "ok", see the printer icon flash in the dock with a red "1" (indicating a printing job), but then the icon disappears and nothing gets printed. I checked the printers queue and there is nothing there. The funny thing is, after many times hitting "print", twice I've had envelopes printed. ??? What's the secret?

Have you tested it from other software, such as TextEdit to establish that it is in fact Pages that is the problem?
Step us through Print Setup... and what you select when you send it off to print.

From the
Brother MFC-6800 Printer's User Guide:
How Can I load envelopes:
You can load envelopes from the multi-purpose sheet feeder. Your appliaction software must be set up to print the envelope size you are using. This is usually done in the Page Setup or Document Setup mebnu of your software. Refer to your appliaction manual
It also mentions an issue with paper thickness.

HT4356 I can see my printer and iPad on router but iPad cannot connect to printer. Printer is on list of air printer models accepted. Help!

You may have to visit the printer manufacturer's web site and look into their support pages to get a print driver for your Mac, and install it. Or see if you can see if a driver may already be in your Mac by checking settings, since there are many drivers already installed in Mac OS X.
Good luck & happy computing!

Macbook air wi-fi works with air extreme; iPhone 4s and a hp envy printer don't see the air express! how can I do?

I have installed the air-extreme base and all works with my macBook air.
I am not able to use iphone 4s and the wireless printer hp envy.
can you help me?

Mate - you are singing from my hymnbook!
There is something amazing about having an ipad2 and being able to present to a boardroom while standing up, moving around and wirelessly presenting - and now I see Macbook Air is really penetrating the office suite - the same is needed - for professional presentations there is nothing better
My only question to you is - now that you can do this with an ipad 2 - and most boardrooms only have VGA projectors - have you figured out how best to get an Apple TV2 to connect to VGA? eg: HDMI - VGA or some other connection?
I think the ability to somehow easily connect an Air TV2 to a VGA and mirror desktops from a Mac will cement the MAC way up the food chain

Why doesn't my MacBook Air see a connected printer on the wireless network?

For some reason my MacBook has come up with a case of the stupids. I have been able to print out to my Canon printer before, but now it doesn't see it. The printer is on our wireless network and can be seen by our iPad, and iMacs but doesn't appear on the MBAir. I have reinstalled the drivers, rebooted the system and when I go to the Preferences to look at the Printers/Scanners there is nothing there. Pressing the + button comes up with a screen with nothing in the default area. The Air is connected to the wireless network and operates fine with the internet and other operations.
What can I do to fix this?

Hello gregfrommi,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with printing in Yosemite. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice for the issue you are experiencing:
OS X Yosemite: Printing troubleshooting
Check the network
Open Network Diagnostics, then follow the instructions to make sure you’re connected to the network.
If you’re using a Wi-Fi network and there are multiple Wi-Fi networks available, your Mac and the printer might be on different networks. Open the Wi-Fi menu in the menu bar, then try choosing a different network.
To see if the printer you want to use is on the same network as your Mac, open Printers & Scanners preferences (choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Printers & Scanners), then click Add . If the printer doesn’t appear in the list of available printers, your Mac might be on a different network.
If you know the printer’s IP address (for example, 192.168.1.100), you can try adding it as an IP printer. For more information, see Add or remove a printer.
If your printer is connected to a Time Capsule or AirPort base station, disconnect your printer from the Time Capsule or base station, then reconnect it.
Make sure you have the latest software
Make sure you have the correct version of your printer’s software (also called its printer driver).
If you’re using a printer that another user is sharing, make sure you’re both using the same version of the printer software. To find out which version you’re using, open Printers & Scanners preferences (choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Printers & Scanners). Select the printer in Printers & Scanners preferences, click Options & Supplies, then click General. Note the driver version.
If you’re using a network printer or a printer attached to your Mac, make sure you have the latest version of the software for the printer. If you still have problems, try different printer software for your printer.
If you’re using an AirPrint-enabled printer, you can check with the manufacturer to see if there’s a firmware update for your printer model.
Replace a corrupted printer queue window
If none of the previous solutions work, the printer’s queue may be corrupted. Open Printers & Scanners preferences (choose Apple menu > System Preferences > Printer & Scanner preferences), then delete and set up your printer again.
If you still can’t print, reset the printing system.
Print documents
Reset the printing system
Add or remove a printer
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Cannot see the USB printer attached to my TC (Mac Air, Maverick, Air - TC via ethernet)

I cannot see the USB printer I attached to my Time Capsule's USB port. I am using a Mac Air, with Maverick OS, and connecting between my Mac and the TC via an ethernet link. Suggestions?

Not sure what you mean by "see" the USB printer.
If you simply plugged the printer in to the Time Capsule, it will not be "seen" by anything.
You won't "see" the printer until you use System Preferences > Print & Scan on both of your Macs to "Add" the printer. Did you do this for both Macs?

Cannot see air print printer

I can print wirelessly from my Imac but Ipad and Iphone do not find air print printer. Any ideas

1. Buy a AirPrint enabled printer; see list below
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
2. Run the CD provided and setup as network printer; this will setup your printer to the same network as your iPad
3. Start printing from your iPad without wires
Note: Make sure you have AirPrint enabled printer

HP Photosmart 7520 all in one showing Air Print Macbook Pro Maverick 10.9.4

At one point I did not have Air Print showing beside printer in system preferences. Printer and scanning is working fine, but I was told by someone on this message board that Air Print should not show. How do I remove Air Print. I have a Macbook Pro Maverick 10.9.4. HP Scan version 4.1.1. I did an update earlier this year and the Air Print was not there. Did not see board for Mac to choose for issue. Thanks for your help.
This question was solved.

Good morning, happy Friday @ladybugs48
I understand you are seeing AirPrint next to your printer, meaning you are currently using the AirPrint driver and not the HP driver. I can help you change this. Please complete the steps below;
Reset Printing System
Click the Apple icon (   ), and then click System Preferences.
In the Hardware section, click Print & Fax/Scan. The Print & Fax/Scan dialog box opens.
Right-click (or  Ctrl  +click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system…
Click OK to confirm the reset.
Type the correct Name and Password.
Click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows no printer selected
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
When you add the printer, to ensure you are using the HP driver, not the AirPrint driver use the steps below;
Select Add Other Printer or Scanner
Select the printer you are adding and next to 'Use' you can select the printer driver
Please let me know if this resolves the issue. Thanks.
Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.
