How To Enable AirPrint for iOS Printing From Any Mac or Windows PC
 
You have an iOS device like an iPhone or iPad, you have a printer, and you want to print things—the only problem is your printer isn’t AirPrint compatible. No problem, read on as we show you how to print to older printers.

In the fall of 2010 Apple released the iOS 4.2 update that included a host of updated features including support for a new mobile/wireless printing protocol AirPrint. At the time there were barely a dozen HP printers that supported the service and even though the number has grown and includes a handful of offerings from the major printing companies there are still thousands upon thousands of printers—old and new—that do not support AirPrint. There’s absolutely no reason to go out and buy a new printer when you can easily tweak your existing printer to support printing from your iOS device.

There are actually two ways to go about achieving iOS-to-printer communication if you don’t have an AirPrint compatible printer. If you’re lucky the manufacturer of your printer has released an iOS helper app that allows iOS to communicate with your printer even if you don’t have a printer with native AirPrint support.
