Print from ipad3 to hp air printer?

I am struggling to print from my ipad3 to my new hp air printer (5520) despite being connected wirelessly from my ipad and my printer is connected and prints from my pc. Any ideas how I can print from my ipad? Thank you.

Good news and bad news:
With this as one option for my printer
ColorModel/Color Model: *RGB RGBW
This command
lpoptions -d HP_Deskjet_F4200_series -o ColorModel=RGBW
does change the lpotion output to
ColorModel/Color Model: RGB *RGBW
Notice the asterisk switched from RGB to RGBW
The bad news is if the option as reported by lpoption only has one setting it can;t be changed (at least I wasn;t able to). So in my case the  paperfeed is
HPPaperSource/Source: *Tray1
and no matter what I tried I could not switch it to anything else.
So even if this is the source of your printers behavior there may not be anything you can do about it, at least from this point.
It is odd that the printer would only have a manual feed option as reported by CUPS. The printer does work normally from the GUI, correct? And there are no switches/settings on the printer for this?
Something else to try, as a test, is to connect the printer directly to the system and see if anything changes. I know with my printer hooked up through the Airport I cannot get to the ink levels and such or run any maintenance commands. I have to directly connect it to do that.
Sorry I don;t have more, 
regards

    what do I need to transfer files and programs from my old MacBook Air using OSX Lion 10.7.5 to a new MacBook Air?

    An external USB drive on which you can install a clone of your old computer's drive. You csn then connect it to your new computer and use Migration Assistant to migrate your data to the new computer. Or you can manually select which of your files you want and copy them to the new computer.

    It's good for that . . . 
    But also I don't keep all my stuff in my Mac.
    But not for that. 
    This older and not day-by-day usage files I want to store in the time machine.
    You can do that (see below), but how are you going to back them up?   If your only copies are on the TC, when (not if) it fails, you risk losing your only copy of the data.
    Is it possible to split TC in two partitions.
    No, but there are some workarounds, including making a fixed-size disk image on it to "reserve" some space.  See #Q3 in Using Time Machine with a Time Capsule.
    But you still won't have backups of the stuff you put there.
    You don't say what kind of Mac you have.  If it's a desktop model, just keep the external HD connected to it, and let Time Machine back it up along with your internal HD.
    However, it sounds like you may have a laptop, where that's not going to be convenient.  In that case, your best bet might be to copy the external HD to a disk image on the TC as above, then keep the HD in a safe place.
    To finish, when i enter the TC and go through the Time line how can I get a file from there and move it back to Mac hd.
    Via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.
    You might also want to review the Time Machine Tutorial, and perhaps browse the rest of the FAQ.

    Hi I bought 2TB WD my passport for mac but I do not know what I can delete from the original macbook air. Thank you.

    That depends on what you have on the MBA...if you have videos, move the videos to the external drive.  If you have a lot of music, create a folder/library for the music and point iTunes there for the music.  If you have a lot of photos for iPhoto, make a new library on the external drive and move our photos over there and then select that library as the default library for iPhoto to use.
    Those are the big files and should take a lot of the load off the internal storage.

  • Tranfering content from MacBook to MacBook air

    I have not received my custom air yet, but was wondering how I will transfer my entire content from black MacBook to air, since air has no FireWire. In the past I have just transferred user content via FireWire on both computers and that has worked perfectly. Any thoughts thanks

    Hi,
    I heard that it's advisable to do a new installation ourselves once again when we've just received our Mac because factory installation may not be perfect.
    No. There's no basis for that. Not in the OSX world, anyway.
    I think it is good to do partition as well before the installation so that we can have one partition only for OS and another partition for our photos, music etc. It is nice because when we want to migrate our stuff, we can simply use CCC to clone the second partition into an external HD and thus migrate our stuff to another computer with migration assistant.
    Also no. That may be advisable on Windoze or other OSs, but not OSX.
    First, OSX works much better (and faster) with OSX and home folders in a single partition. And, if you guess wrong about the sizes, you'll either waste a lot of space on the OSX partition, or have too little free space on it, possibly causing performance problems or data loss.
    Second, Migration Assistant (or the similar Setup Assistant) doesn't transfer OSX, but it does transfer everything else.
    Third, that would require re-installation of most or all complex applications -- the ones that come with installers. Those installers put other files in other places, often in your system folders, in addition to installing the app in /Applications. In your scenario, none of those files would be transferred, so the apps wouldn't work well, if at all. And those that store their purchase keys or serial numbers in a system folder will require re-entry or re-authorization.
    But MIgration Assistant (or Setup Assistant) does transfer those files.

  • How can I downgrade to 7.1.2 from IOS 8 (iPad air and iPhone 5S)?

    I will back to IOS 7.1.2 with my iPhone 5 S and my Ipad air.

    Many Thanks for the quick answer. But this isn’t helpful for me. I've got no option for downgrade. Only for IOS 8 factory reset!!

    How can I downgrade to 7.1.2 from IOS 8 (iPad air and iPhone 5S)?
    Can you restore from backup?  That would be best to keep all your stuff.  You can find usually several versions under restore option in iTunes.  I really hope you have one of those iOS7 versions backed up to iTunes.
    If you really want to start over, and I mean no contacts, photos, music, apps, anything but factory settings that aren't in the cloud or in one of the restore options. You can search ios 7.1.2 firmware and download it and install by shift click restore and choose the file you downloaded.  But that is a really desperate act.  But this also requires iTunes and if you've been using iTunes you probably have a backup.
