Downloaded the AirPrint and did it right...I think. I've gotten two different message in the command prompt. One says FAILED & Access Denied. The other opens and closes the connection. Any ideas on what I can do to get this install successfully?

OK - I had this exact same problem and I'm trying to remember how I eventually fixed it. It's all to do with the cupslite issue that you see reported.

This may be a bit of a trial-and-error process - try AirPrint.exe -r and this should remove everything and try again.

I'm not with my PC at the moment but, if it doesn't work, get back and I'll have a look and see if I can recall what I did to finally get it to work.

Figured it out

Thanks Tim, I figured it out. I had to right click on cmd and select run as administrator before entering the code. It works great now. :)

Glad it worked OK. One other problem that I had was that when I take my laptop away from home and then return it sometimes gets allocated a different IP address by my ADSL broadband router and that confuses the iPad.....so I'd be interested to hear if you have the same problem. In the end I configured my laptop to have a static IP address when it's at home.
