Printing from a printer via Ethernet connectionrver via Ethernet connection

[Kinodad]

I have a Ipadpro 12.9. I have connected it to my office server via Ethernet connection.Works great. I need it to recognize the printer that is connected to the server via an Ethernet connect in another part of the office. How does one accomplish this?

O’Printer would probably be the easiest solution.

If you are using Macs, then Printopia.

As long as the computer it is installed on can access the printer, then it can be shared via AirPrint. I used to use Printopia on my iMac, when the iMac was still my main computer. Worked great.

Needless to say, the computer must be on and logged into; so the software can run.

For a hardware solution, you can try an XPrintServer by Lantronix. Not cheap, but if it’s a solution for the whole office, and you have multiple printers this may be the best. Be sure your printer(s) is on the list of supported printers before purchase.

Note: As a bonus, both O’Printer and Printopia can print to a folder as PDF (JPG for images). Kind of a virtual printer. At least they could the last time I checked the feature lists.
