Print from i phone to airport extreme

I cannot print from my iphone 4s or I pad to my printer via air port extreme.  I downloaded the air port extreme utility and bonjour, the printer works from my desktop PC but not from my i pad or i phone. 

You will need an AirPrint compatible printer to be able to print from the iPhone or iPad. More info is here:

If  your printer is not on the list of compatible devices, and you have a Mac, you might still be able to print by using Printopia. Might be worth a try.

  • Can I print from my iPad using airport extreme?

    Can I print from my iPad using airport extreme 802.11n ?

    iOS devices use AirPrint to print directly to a printer. That would require a printer that is AirPrint-ready. Unfortunately, just connecting a non-AirPrint-ready printer to the USB or Ethernet ports of the AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS), will NOT enable it for AirPrint.

  • How to print from iPad using my airport extreme

    I have a New iPad and an iPhone 4 all connected to my Airport Extreme.  My tower computer is a pc as is all of my laptops at this time. I have downloaded Bonjour Print Services to my pc laptops and they print wirelessly through the Airport Extreme using Bonjour Print Services. How do I print from my iPad since I am connected using the Airport Extreme and the printer is a HP7310 which is not an air printer. Please help!

    Suggest that you try an App like Print Central to see if that will allow the iPad to print to your printer.

    HP also is offering ePrint, which might help as well.

  • Can you print from an iPad using airport Extreme?

    Do you still need to use a third party software (I.e. Printopia) to send a print file to my Samsung printer via Airport extreme router?

    Printing from iPad
    You might note the * (asterisk) here and be aware of the fine print at the bottom of the Apple advertising page.
    Just a small detail like the printer must be AirPrint compatible.
    See this Apple document to see if the printer is AirPrint compatible

    If the printer is not AirPrint compatible, then Printopia might work

  • Trying to connect a second printer (this one wireless) through airport extreme.

    I am such a dufus about anything related to setup!  Can I have two printers on my network, one connected by a cable and one wirelessly?  I just purchased a second printer for my home office so that I can access both printers from my MacBook Air.  The second printer is a Brother wireless one, and am trying to do the setup but can't figure out how.  I got to the step about the printer needing to "detect which mode - WiFi Protected Setup Mode or AOSS - your access oint/router uses...I pushed the little wireless setup button at the back of airport extreme, but keep getting an error message that says the printer "cannot detect a WLAN access point/router that has WPS or AOSS enabled." 

    Hello Gee Money. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Chances are pretty good that the signal from the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) down to the MacBook may not be sufficient three floors down.
    I suggest downloading a copy of iStumbler. Use iStumbler's Inspector feature (select Edit > Inspector from iStumbler's menu) to determine the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) at different points around your house, by performing a simple RF site survey. Within the Inspector, note the values for "signal" & "noise" at these locations. Start with your MacBook near the AEBSn, note the readings, and then, choose the locations where you will typically use your MacBook to access the Internet ... especially the location three floors below.
    SNR is the signal level (in dBm) minus the noise level (in dBm). For example, a signal level of -53dBm measured near an access point and typical noise level of -90dBm yields a SNR of 37dB, a healthy value for wireless LANs.
    The SNR, as measured from the MacBook, decreases as the range to the base station increases because of applicable free space loss. Also an increase in RF interference from microwave ovens and cordless phones, which increases the noise level, also decreases SNR.
    SNR Guideline
    o 40dB+ SNR = Excellent signal
    o 25dB to 40dB SNR = Very good signal
    o 15dB to 25dB SNR = Low signal
    o 10dB to 15dB SNR = Very low signal
    o 5dB to 10dB SNR = No signal
    If the SNR is 20dB+ at each of these locations, then you should be getting reasonable performance from your AirPort. If less, either try to locate the source of the Wi-Fi interference or try relocating either the base station or the wireless clients until they are within a 20dB SNR range.

  • Can't find printer connected by ethernet through airport extreme.  All I get is a generic error message - I'm using printer IP address as address.

    Old imac using snow leopard printed just fine to Ricoh cl2000n printer that is connected to airport extreme via ethernet (as was the imac). New iMac with Lion otherwise same cable configuration and the computer cannot find the printer.  It searchs and spits out a generic error message.  Any suggestions?  Thanks!

    Is your printer listed?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669
    If not then you need to get the driver and install it.
    Otherwise you may want to reset the printing system.

  • Why cant i print from my ipad using airport express but i can print from my mac using the express

    why cant i print from my ipad using airport express but i can print from my mac using the express

    Because your printer has to be Airprint compatible and connected to WiFi. There are applications, such as Printopia, that will allow you to print through your computer.

  • I'm trying to setup a printer go wireless through my airport extreme, but every time I try to print the printing file gets paused. I'm in loop. PLEASE HELP! (The printer is a Brother 7020  monochrome)

    I had the exact same problem
    It turns out I was using a 20 foot USB cable between the printer and the Airport Extreme and the signal had become to weak to work. Try using nothing more than a 6 foot cable or try a new cable

  • Why can't I print from my iPad using airport express

    Why can't I print from my iPad using airport express?

    Is the printer connected to the USB port on the AirPort Express?
    If yes, Apple does not support printing from the iPad in this manner. Try another App like Printopia which should allow the iPad to print. There is a free trial, so you will know in a few minutes whether this will work.
    Printopia - AirPrint to Any Printer - Print from iPad - Print from iPhone ...
    Is the printer connected to the AirPort Express using wireless only?
    If yes, you must have an AirPrint compatible printer to be able to print directly from the iPad. See if your model is AirPrint compatible in this Apple document:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    If your printer model appears, the printer may need a firmware update to enable the AirPrint feature. Contact the support folks at your printer manufacturer.
    If the printer does not appear, try Printopia as above.

    Can my old HP print from my iPad using airport express.
    If yes what can be done.
    Thank you.
    Merry Christmas

    You might be able to get the iPad to print to the HP by installing an App like Print Central on the iPad.
    There are no guarantees that this will work, so worst case you will be out about $10 U.S.

    How i can print from my iPad with airport expres

    Hi - you would need to purchase a printer that is enabled to print from an iPad, iPhone or iPod - these would include ePrint, iPrint and AirPrint printers - you would then install the appropriate app on you iPad and be able to print - the installation setup for each type of printer would enable you to do this.

  • How do i print from i phone?

    how do i print from i phone?

    If you have one of the few airprint enabled printers then use airprint.
    iOS: AirPrint 101
    Otherwise, you would have to find an app that allows for this in the app store.
    Printopia is one.

  • Brother MFC-7420 Prints from iMac, not from Macbook Pro using Airport Extreme

    I have a Brother MFC-7420 printer.  Up ntil a few days ago, I coiuld print from my Macbook Pro, as the Systems Pref. in the iMac allowed for everyone to print. Now I get the message "Printer Off Line," when the printer icon pops out of the dock in my attempt to print from the MacBook Pro. I use wired with the iMac, wireless with MBP, but it printed fine with the Extreme. Any answers, appreciated.

    Have you already completed the troubleshooting basics, like powering off the entire network, and then powering up modem first, then each network device one at a time?

  • How do I find the IP address of a wireless printer (via bonjour) on my Airport Extreme?

    I can see the MAC address of my macbook and the printer using the AirPort Utility, but I can't find the actual IP. Attempting to connect through the printer utility puts:http://hp88388e.local./ in the URL, but the page just hangs. isn't there a numerical address associated with the printer? how can I find it?

    Thanx for the help! It was not the problem, however. I fixed the issue. Here is what happened:
    Because the HP D110 printer was set up manually with the previous UBEE wireless router cable modem, the printer's IP address stayed fixed at 192.168.0.238 even after I performed a "factory reset" through the touch-screen menu. bonjour is apparently able to "see" the printer, and even establish a physical layer of communication with the printer, but it is unable to transfer data to and from the printer. Thus, while the network detected and could establish a link, no tasks could be accomplished (i.e. ink levels, paper out, actual printing, etc). additionally, the link to go to the printer webpage was dead (that was my first clue).
    I tried hooking it up via the USB port on the airport extreme, and it would work perfectly. After I set it up, it automatially printed a test page and I discovered that it was still 192.168.0.238 - even though the airport extreme had it listed in the logs as 10.0.1.3. I figured that was the problem, but I was still unable to log into the printer webpage to reset the IP on the printer side.
    Because I was unable to force the airport extreme to assign the printer to the existing address, I had to keep playing around with the on-screen menu. Evenually I found that inside the wireless menu, there is an option to reset all wireless parameters, and once I did this, I deleted the printer and added it again from the print/fax utility. this time, it worked wirelessly, and the printer web page could be accessed.
    As an aside, the apple interface to the print/scan/fax settings were far smoother, faster, and more intuative than the HP utilities written by HP on windows! Hope this helps anyone who is also stuck.
