Printing from iPad

[robyn cupitt]

So good to have access to community knowledge. I have just got an iPad mini and a new docrint CM215 fw. All connected and working but iPad not recognising the printer. Wifi working great, so not that. The mac linked to printer ok.

Hi, welcome to iPF!

Your printer isn't supporting Airprint. For more details see this link: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
To be able to print from your iPad, look for an app in App Store, such as "Print & Scan Utility".

Thanks. We assumed a printer with wifi would support AirPrint . Will try the app
Thanks again
