Enable AirPrint For Any Printer In Under One Minute


Links shown in video and more: netputing.com More info & how to on wireless printing: discussions.apple.com docs.info.apple.com --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Recently I decided to give wireless printing a try. I decided that my printer was taking up all of the legroom under my desk and quite frankly it just seemed far simpler than having it plugged in to my laptop all the time. So I set up my printer, rather wackily if I might ad, and all was well. However, I suddenly realized that there was immense advantage about wireless printing that I had managed to ignore: AirPrint. The technology behind it has been around for quite some time, however the implementation of wireless printing into Apple devices only just happened. Unfortunately, for some reason the forces that be at Apple decided that they were only going to allow certain printers to take advantage of the feature. Therefore "ol reliable" hp c400 was incompatible. Depressed about even having to think of getting rid of my beloved, dorm room surviving printer I proceeded to do a frantic search on the internet about doing some kind of work-around. Fortunately enough I found one. AirPrint Activator came to the rescue. Staying true to AirPrint's philosophy of plug and play, the work around for enabling the feature is surprisingly simple to use. In fact, it took me less than minute to get it all working. Check out my how to video to see exactly how it went:
