Response-can not find air printer

I can print on my iPad 2 only when I have the option to open in another application. When I don't have an option to open in another application it will not print at all and says air printer not found. I know the printer is set up and wifi is accurate since I can print when I can open in another application. Example: if I try to print from mail, photos it doesn't give me an option to print in another application and it says no air printer found. Can anyone help me so I can print anytime?

What type of printer is it that you are using? As far as ipad printing there are 2 methods of printing, airprint, and eprint home and biz. The type of router you are using can also have an effect, so if you do have that available it would help out.
Airprinting is only supported by newer model printers, and is built in to iOS in most of the Apple apps (photos, safari, notes etc). This is usually the easiest method if your printer supports it, but it is limited in what options it gives you.
Eprint home and biz is a free app in the app store made by HP that adds far more options when printing (paper size, image size, paper type etc), as well as allowing it to print to most networked hp printers, even those that are a few years old. The limitation to this is that you must open things in the app to print them.

  • Can not find air printer - using epson wf 3520 connected via wifi

    Hardware: macbook air
    Software: Osx 10.9.5
    Epson printer wf3520 connected via wifi is working - latest printer software installed
    -when trying to add an air printer sometimes its showing up under bonjour - usually its not showing as available printer
    -when it is installed and I try to print I get the message "printer not connected"
    Any help how to install it correctly?

    Hi wolfgangfromhildesheim,
    If you've gone through the article that Allen provided, have gotten through to the step where you reset your printing system, and the issue persists, then the next step in the article is for you to contact the printer manufacturer for further assistance.
    If you're unable to print
    Check these things if you are unable to print, or if you see the message "No AirPrint Printers Found."
    Make sure your printer has paper, and enough ink or toner installed.
    Make sure your printer is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your iOS device.
    Make sure your printer has power and is turned on. Try turning your printer off and then back on again to see if it resolves your issue.
    Check to see if your printer has any error lights or indicators displayed on the printer's control panel. Check the documentation that came with your printer to clear any errors displayed.
    Check with your printer's manufacturer to see if any firmware updates are available for your printer. Check your printer's documentation or contact the printer vendor for more information. A firmware update may be available, even if you just bought your printer.

    Sharonanthony-
    First, try double-clicking your Home button.  A row of recent Apps will line up along the bottom of the screen.  Scroll across and look for the Print Center icon.  If it is there, you should be able to delete any print job that might be hanging it up.
    If you can access the internet, then you should have a good connection to a printer that is using the same WiFi.  If you do not have your normal connection to the internet, then I suggest you unplug your WiFi router for a few seconds.  Then reset the iPad's network at Settings-General-Reset-Reset Network Settings.  You will need to reconnect the iPad to WiFi.

  • HT4356 Can't find air printer: Help?

    IPad can't find air printer. Both are connected.

    Without any details all we can do is guess and offer general suggestions. Have you worked through all the troubleshooting steps in the support article from which you came? Confirmed that your printer supports AirPrint? Checked with the printer manufacturer to see if there is any firmware update available/necessary?
    Regards.

    Restarting your router is generally sufficient to restore AirPrint to operation.

  • Airport Utility can not find air port extreme base station

    I am running XP home on my computer and have an air port extreme base station connected to it wired. I have no problem connecting to the internet yet more times then not the air port utility can not find the base station. On occasion it will find it but most of the time it can not. Rebooting does not help.

    I recently purchased one of the new Airport Extreme base stations and after carefully reading the instructions; I first installed the Airport Utility 5.5 that came on the CD onto my MacbookPro. I then connected the new base station to my macbookpro via Ethernet and power it up. I copied a previously saved configuration onto it. All my printers, IMAC and macbookpro were able to connect.
    I then used my older base station and my airport express to extend the N and G networks through the house. My problem was (1) the new Airport utility would consistently lose the older extreme base station and the airport express, (2) An my HP printers keep losing the wireless connection to the new airport extreme base station. The only resolve was to consistently restart the new base station, after which (1) the new airport utility would see the older base station and express again and (2) the wireless connection to the printers would be restored.
    After about a week of this, I removed the new Airport Extreme and replaced it with the older extreme (802.11N DRAFT) and de-installed the Airport Utility 5.5 and re-installed Airport Utility 5.4.2 and everything works fine.
    Has anyone else experienced any problems with the newly released Airport Extreme (fully 802.11N) base stations and Airport Utility 5.5?

  • TS3274 can not connect printer..error msg can not find airport printer  printer wireless to airport extreme

    printer not recognised.  Printer wirelessly  connected to airport extreme.  iPad will not find printer

    Thank you so much Paul_31 for your suggestions, HUGELY appreciate the effort
    I have reset the printing system, a few times for good measure but nadda.
    I have also looked at getting the software from the Apple site after seeing that with Snow Leopard you should let the operating system lead the install not the manufacteurers software as it is most likely out of date.  I too found it wasn't there so I uninstalled the software got up the CLX_3300 series stuff then went from there with the USB cable.  It apparently hasn't worked either
    Unfortunately now after using the print utility to scan for a while that has now gone again on the last restart of the Mac.  I am so completely clueless
    The box says the printer is compatible, the place of purchase said it was compatible, the Samsung site says it is compatible.
    I think it's the set up of my Mac? Our maybe a glitch in the network settings?
    Thanks again
