What printers are compatible with AirPrint on the ipad?

Q. I currently only have a printer hooked up to my desktop PC, but I'm looking to get a wireless printer that is compatible with the ipad. Also for it to be compatible with the ipad does the
Printer have to be hooked up to a Mac? Thanks in advance.

A. There are only 11 AirPrint compatible printers currently:
AirPrint-enabled printers
HP Envy e-All-in-One series (D410a)
HP Photosmart Plus e-AiO (B210a)
HP Photosmart Premium e-AiO (C310a)
HP Photosmart Premium Fax e-AiO (C410a)
HP Photosmart e-AiO (D110)
HP Photosmart eStation (C510)
HP LaserJet Pro M1536dnf Multifunction Printer
HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fn Color Multifunction Printer
HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fnw Color Multifunction Printer
HP LaserJet Pro CP1525n Color Printer
HP LaserJet Pro CP1525nw Color Printer

No, they do not need to be hooked up to a Mac in order to work.

How to print PDF from an iPad to a canon printer?
Q. There are a couple of PDF files online that I want to print from my iPad to my canon printer. I've downloaded an app that is supposed to let me do this, but I can't figure out how to get the file loaded onto the app. Also when I try to print directly from safari it says it can't find a printer

A. e-mail the links to yourself then access your e-mail on a computer with a printer attached.

How do I get my iPad to print to my wireless printer?
Q. I have a iPad and a wireless printer which i hooked up to my wireless internet. However, when I searched for printers to print to on my iPad it came up with none. How can I get my iPad to recognize and pick up my wireless printers signal?

Thanks!

A. Printers need to receive the data in a format that they understand, and that usually requires specific drivers loaded onto computers in order to do that. However, HP has several printers that are made specifically to work with iPods & iPads.

Though you might have some other options. Check out the following links for some info that might work for you as one says you can also print using AirPrint to a non-wireless printer that is plugged into an Apple Airport Express via Ethernet.

Otherwise you'll have to get an AirPrint compatible printer:

You would need a compatible ePrint/AirPrint printer in order to do that. See this website:
http://hothardware.com/News/Apple-Introduces-AirPrint-Wireless-Printing-For-iPod-iPhone-And-iPad/

Here is a list of compatible printers currently:
AirPrint-enabled printers
HP Envy e-All-in-One series (D410a)
HP Photosmart Plus e-AiO (B210a)
HP Photosmart Premium e-AiO (C310a)
HP Photosmart Premium Fax e-AiO (C410a)
HP Photosmart e-AiO (D110)
HP Photosmart eStation (C510)
HP LaserJet Pro M1536dnf Multifunction Printer
HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fn Color Multifunction Printer
HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fnw Color Multifunction Printer
HP LaserJet Pro CP1525n Color Printer
HP LaserJet Pro CP1525nw Color Printer
HP Officejet 6500A e-AiO

HP Officejet Pro 8500A e-AiO
HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus e-AiO

Without one of those printers, you'll not be able to print like you want.
