Just got my iPad but can't figure out how to print with my HP Officejat Pro 8500. Wireless is set up on it but the iPad does not seem to be able to find it

you might need a program called fingerprint installed on your copmuter...but first check with HP to see if your printer is air print enabled or if there is updated drivers to make it air print capable and you will not need fingerprint

There is an hp printing app that will probably work for you. Get hp eprint biz&home

Yes, you need the HP ePrint app in order to print from iPad or iPhone to your AirPrint enabled HP printer.
