Print with airport express from ipad

I have airport express and i will print with my ipad, but it doesn`t work. Can you help me?

ipad cannot print to USB printer. It has to be airprint.
There is a way around it. Use a printer app like Printopia on the iMac to handle the airprint protocols.
There are several apps available and I don't use it so do a quick google for reviews of the best.

Printing to airport express from multiple imacs

I have two Intel based iMacs that share a Canon ip4300 printer via Airport Express (connected to the USB port on the airport Express). One of the iMacs prints perfectly and very fast. The second (and closer unit to the AE) prints extremely slow and can take an hour to print one photo. I disconnected the AE and plugged the USB directly into the second iMac and it too prints perfectly and very fast. So it seems to be something to do with the WiFi connection between the second iMac and the AE that is causing the problem. I have downloaded new firmware for the AE and drivers for the printer. I have reconfigured that AE from scratch. What should I do?

When you say that you installed the "drivers" for your Dell laptop, does this mean that you also installed Bonjour for Windows, which is on the CD that came with the AirPort Express?
If you haven't installed Bonjour for Windows on the Dell, you can download it here:

Any suggestions?
Thank you,

I purchased the Apple airport express that connects
multiple
wireless-networked PCs to a usb printer.
is there a driver that can make this work?. I configured
the printer
according to the manual, received a test page and so on, but now it
takes ages to start printing and printing never gets to 100%
completion but to 99%. I am not able to cancel printing jobs and this
is a whole mess.

Error 6753 when printing with airport express

Hi all-
I'm trying to us my airport express to set up wireless printing from my PC laptop. Right now, I've got a netgear router and I -think- I've managed to con nect the airport express to join that network. My goal is simply to use the airport express to print wirelessly.
I've got a green light on the AX and printer is plugged in by USB. However, every time I try to print I get this: 6753 error.
Status: green light
Mode: join a wireless network
Wireless: it's got my network and pw. I've checked the "allow Ethernet clients" although I don't know if I need that.
Connect using: Wireless Network
Underneath this it says "This AX shares a single IP address with wireless clients using DHCP and NAT." Then it has connection sharing bridge mode, but this is greyed out and I can't select anything.
Printers: I see my printer listed, but when I click share printers over Bonjour I get an error message before I can update the AX. It says to edit and change it to a wide area host name.
Do I need to change some settings? Or what "wide area host" do I need to change it to?
I am very new at this. Thank you for any help!

Thanks... I will try that first. I've also been advised to delete the network and add a new one with the printer connected... but your idea is simpler.

Printing with Airport Express: never compeletes

Hi,
I have an HP Deskjet 5740 connected over my Airport Express.
Printing works fine except for one very annoying issue: after the job is done the task is still in the printer's queue, and the activity light on the printer does not stop blinking.
When you look at the printer window under XP, it shows a weird "pages" count, like 4/1 when printing one single page.
In order to print something else you need to cancel the job manually from the printer tray.
Can somebody please help me?
Thank you

Printing with Airport Express as Base Station

That is, I think our Airport Express is our base station. It's the only thing we have, and we can connect to the internet just fine, but it doesn't show up in the Airport Utility.
The main problem is printing through the Airport Express. Our printer prints fine when plugged into the USB on the ibook but it won't print from the USB on the Airport Express.
We can see the printer located on our wireless network but when we try to print the print center says that printing has stopped with an error of level one, or category one or something. I do see the appropriate printer driver on the list when I add the printer (I think it's an Epson C40ux, but I'm doing this from memory) and that's set correctly. I've got the unofficial list of printers that work and don't work and I see that some printers may need other drivers to work from the wireless network. There must be other things to check, but I'm a little new at this. It seems like this would be a common problem but I'm not seeing many posts like this so if anyone has a moment and any ideas I'd be grateful. Thanks. Mark

Internet Printing with Airport Express?

I am windows XP user with an Airport Express being used for its wireless printing/music capabilities. It is the wireless N model. Is there a way to print when outside my wireless network or does my computer have to be on that network? I am somewhat familiar with wireless networking/routers if this is the only method.

Welcome to the discussions!
From the information in your post, it sounds like you have configured the AirPort Express to "join" your wireless network.
If that's the case, your computer will need to be on the same wireless network in order to issue print commands or stream iTunes to the AirPort Express.
Or, did I misunderstand your question?

Printing with Airport Express

I have had an Airport Express for about 2 years, in my office to operate my HP J4550 printer wirelessly by plugging the printer into the USB port of the AE. Today, my Airport Extreme arrived, I hooked it up for internet and now, cannot print. I cannot get the Airport Express to show up in the Extreme under "other wireless devices" or elsewhere and it blinks amber. I have unplugged all devices from each other, the wall, everything- and replugged. Still, the Express blinks amber and will not change. Please, can you help me so the Express works again in my office and so that I can print? By the way, the office is on the same floor as the modem and the Extreme and is about 40' away. Never had this issue until I set up the Extreme. I got the Extreme because I was having issues with my very old Time Capsule base station and it was suggestion that I needed to upgrade. Funny thing is, the internet works better than ever (weird I know) but now cannot print or get the Express to function. Please help?

Did you give all devices the same name And password?
the he express should show as itself, with the same name as the other routers in airport utility.

Printing with Airport Express without an internet connection?

I have a printer which I would like to print from my MacBook Air wirelessly.
I don't have any network connections neither a internet connection since I use a wireless broadband card.
So my question is, do I need to have a internet connection for the airport express or can I just use it as a wireless to print.
Thank in advance.

Though you don't need an internet connection (which technically you have with your broadband card), I have read of an issue with connecting to more than one network (i.e. AirPort Express and your wireless broadband). If there is an issue, then it is possible you will have to switch to the Express for printing and back to your wireless broadband when your are not.

TS1253 Print via airport express on iPad

How can we set up printing on iPad via a airport express? I've tried several apps but none really seem to allow printing emails etc some even charge per print which is just ridiculous...
iPad3
Epson BX525WD
Airport Express (Old style)

PrintCentral for the iPad appears to be a very popular App, since it supports a wide range of printers.
Worth a look if you have not alredy done so. Check with Print Central support to verify that your printer will be supported.

Print with Airport Express

I've just buyed a new printer (HP Laserjet Pro 300 Color m351a) and installed new HP drivers in my Macbook Pro (with OSX 10.9 Mavericks) and when I connect the USB cable to the Airport Express (first model) to use it wireless I'm not able to see her in printer menu.
When I connect the printer directly to the Mac works fine
Can anybody help me?

Unfortunately, not all USB printers are compatible with AirPort base stations. In addition, the AirPort's USB port does not support the "advanced" printer functions, like scanning, copying or faxing, of multi-function printers.
To see if your printer is compatible, take a look at this iFelix Unofficial AirPort Printer Compatibility link. If your printer isn't listed, it doesn't necessarily mean it won't work, but simply that it has not been verified. iFelix also provides the following workaround for printers not on the list that would certainly be worth a try.
Also you can try this Apple Tech Support article to see if it will help: Printer troubleshooting for AirPort Base Stations and Time Capsule
Finally, check out this IBM support article to see if your printer is listed as having a Postscript or PCL3 interface. If it does, then it will most likely work with the AirPort's USB port. Printers that use the "HP LIDIL" interface must be connected to a computer directly and will not work.

HP PSC 1410 not printing with Airport Express

I have just purchased this printer. I'm running Tiger on a Powerbook G4.
When I set up the printer with a direct USB connection to my computer, the printer is added with the driver "HP All-in-One 3.0.1" automatically chosen. It works just fine.
When I plug in the printer to my Airport Express, the same All-in-One driver is automatically offered. I chose it, and the printer is added to my list of printers no problem. However, it just won't print. It tries to start the print job, and then the printer icon bounces in the dock with a big red exclamation mark. I try to click on start print job, and the same thing happens - it tries to start the job, but then just stops and the exclamation mark appears.
Does anyone know what might be wrong?
Thanks
Theresa

The PSC 1410 is not on the list of known compatible printers found at http://www.efelix.co.uk/tech/1013.html - which may very well explain the problem.
