Does anyone know how to print from the iPad?

Whenever I try, from Pages for example, I just get told it can't find the printer.

Any ideas?

    not all wireless printers are compatible with the IPad. 

    If you go to the the IPad support page on Apple, you will find a list of compatible printers.

    I know my HP wireless printer is not.

    What type of printer do you have? 

    If it is a HP there is an HP Printer App that make help.

    Get Printopia. It's cheap and it works great. I've had no trouble using it. Install it on one of your macs and the iPad will see that computer's printers.

    Thanks for your replies.

    I am using an Epson, I didn't realise it had to be a special printer.

    Thanks anyway.

    If you install Printopia, you can print to any printer.

    Well, I have PrintCentral installed on my iPad1, and it is able to directly print WiFi to my HP printer.
    If I start PrintCentral first, then "PrintCentral" appears as a known printer from email, safari, etc on the iPad. No PC or Mac required for printing.
    If/when Logos for iPad supports any printing via AirPrint etc, I expect that PrintCentral would then appear.
    So, its a 2-step process, but it works for me.
    Please - now bring on more features for the iOS version of the Logos app. And more of the titles on IOS, rather than PC/Mac only.

    Hello, Karl,

    sorry to use this means of contacting you ... couldn't trace you any other way. Some weeks ago, I've been downloading your gret apps, sentence diagram  and proposition arc, to my wife's iPad. Now I've obtained one myself ... and can't find them anywhere on iTunes!!! We are translators and find your programs VERY useful. Would greatly appreciate your help in finding out what happened and whether they will be available again ...

    TNX
