AirPrint help

[IPad-Fan-64]

Its asking me to input username for kodak printer I am using and a password what would that be?

Computer username & password or something else?

Also how do I set it to guest I am using a vista laptop

 

[BrennB]

Yes computer user name and password

Or enable guest mode on laptop and you wont get the name/password prompt..you don't have to be logged in as guest just have it activated....

To enable. Control panel, user accounts, manage another account, guest account, turn on

Brilliant thank you very much, much appreciated.

I just tried it and worked but it won't work unless I click on a program I found on the Internet. Anyway I can do it without having to go into that program all the time?

Which program? Only thing I have to do is be sure my pc is awake

AirPrint.exe it works when a command prompt comes up

Its a real pain to put the pc click on AirPrint.exe to print from my iPad I may aswell print from my pc.

But I would like to print from my iPad rather than going through all that.

Any idea BrennB?

Hmmm put a link to airprint.exe from your program files into the startup folder. That way the program is running as soon as your turn on your PC.

Isn't there anyway of printing from the iPad without turning the pc on?

Certainly not when using the Airprint.exe solution. And you should not have to manually start it... if setup correctly it will be loaded every time the PC starts up.

If you have one of the--relatively few--directly-supported printers you don't need the PC on.
