An office setup usually consists of PCs, laptops, and printers. Printers have become an invaluable part of any work environment especially if said office has huge documentation needs and long paper trails. Printers are easy to use and can multitask as a scanner.

Printer technology has developed in leaps and bounds. The first ever mechanical printer was designed by Charles Babbage, the father of computers, in the year 1853. And, almost after a century, Remington Rend develop the first high-speed printer. Then, in 1957, the first dot-matrix printer was developed at IBM.

The advances in technology have created a lot of options for printing: today, we can use wired printers, wireless printers, and we can even print using mobile devices on both Android and iPhone.

The development of printers is amazing and it will keep on going. Maybe one day, we will have voice activated printing where you just say print and the document will print automatically, who knows.

Today, in this article, we will learn how to connect and print using your wireless printer. We chose this topic today because many new users don’t know how to set up and connect an iPad to a wireless printer.

We pick this topic today because many new users don’t know how to set up a wireless printer with iPad. All you have to do is to follow these steps:

How to Print Wirelessly Using an iPad:

• Open the iPad application that you use to print using the wireless printer.
• In the second step, you have to tap on the application’s “offer” symbol and select “print” if it’s available.

(Note: Most printer support Airprint – Airprint is an application used to print using MAC devices, iPad, iPhone, etc. You can always use other apps which are supported by your printer.)

• You have to select your printer from the printer options list shown on screen. All the available Airprint compatible printers will be present on your screen, so you can easily select yours.
• Now, you have to pick different options, for example – quantity of duplicates, pages, duplex printer, pages to be print, or shading or high contrast printing, etc.
• The final step is to select print in the upper right corner of the app.

There are a couple of important things you should know before you can start wirelessly printing using an iPad:

• The brand of your printer must support Airprint.
• Your iPad and printer should be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. They should also be in range of the router.

Check the Printer Network Connection Status

If you are not able to set up a network connection, follow the steps given below:

• You have to wirelessly connect the printer and the apple device to use Airprint.
• Make sure that your Apple device has its Wi-Fi turned on and a check mark is next to the name of your local Wi-Fi network.

For printer with touchscreen control panel: Touch the wireless icon or open network settings or setup menu to see the connection status of the network.

For printers without touchscreen control panel: You have to press the wireless and information buttons at the same time or you have to press the wireless and start copy black buttons simultaneously. You will notice that a wireless test report with the network connection status will print.

If the connection is successful, you can try test printing a document.
