    printing from ipad

    Im using print central app....working great so far, I was able to enter my aol email address and its got my emails in the actual email folder within he app....I tried to enter my wifes yahoo one (classic yahoo) its being weird...spinning thing at top left keeps spinning acting like its trying to do something but nothing, not loading her emails...anyone else had this problem? Another thing in this app....to print and webpage u go to the top of address bar and infront of http u put a "z" then enter that hen openings that page in the print central app so u can print, after u print u go back to safari but if u then wanna go back to print central to check your email, the web page u last printed is up there! How can u be rid of web page to get the email/setting screen within print central app without hitting the home button then opening the app back up?

    Thanks!

    When I delete her yahoo account and try again...I click on classic yahoo and a pop up comes up and says "this account type may need a application upgrade if the email server format changes" what the heck does that mean!?!?!

    Okay, I'm new at this and I'm trying to set up wireless printing from the Ipad. I have a Canon mg5220 and it will print from the ipad only when in the 'print n share' app. How can I tell this thing to print anything I need when it says it can't find the printer? How do I make it recognize the printer for Safari or other apps running? Would like to know before I get too upset to use it.

    I do not believe that model is AirPrint compatible, that is why it cannot see your printer. You have 4 options:
    1. Keep printing via the Print n Share app;
    2. See if there is a Canon app that will do similar;
    3. Get an AirPrint enabler software for your PC or Mac;
    4. Buy an Airprint enabled printer.

    I have a canon mg5220, basically one that is not listed on the Ipad in Iprint, which makes me wonder if the Ipad is somehow reading what printer you have and then not listing it as compatibale. Anyway, I've downloaded 2 different apps and one will print a test page but there is nowhere on the Ipad the change printers. When I tell it to print a page, a note, or something, the "cannot find printer' shows up. I would think that there would be a way to change printers in the general setting but there isnt. The free 'Canon' app only prints photos and that is not what I need it for. Printing photos uses the heck out of the ink and I would even suggest that is why the canon app only prints photos. Of course Apple + HP is no problem but I don't have an HP printer. What kind of printer do you have?

    I just check the official list, and the MG5220 is not AirPrint compatible, hence why it does not show up as a printer on your iPad. If you read my earlier post, you can see what your options are. At this point, do you also have a PC on the same network as the printer? If so, check out the software options for "sharing" the MG5220 so it does appear as an Printer on your iPad. There are other threads that cover this, and others can offer both PC and Mac options.

    I bought an epson Xp405 last week for fifty pounds. A fantastic printer and works flawlessly.

    Have you tried the email print facility?
    For such a cheap printer I didn't realise it had it"s own email address.
    .........I don't always get your questions right.... but you'll certainly know I've tried.
