Lexmark Pinnacle Pro901 and Air Print Is this printer compatible with Apple's Air Print? I hope so, because I just bought it a few weeks ago.

Either Apple or Lexmark need to make this compatible in order to print directly from my Ipad. I do not want to turn on my laptop in order to print from my Ipad. That seems ridiculous. A patch is needed for Lexmark to remain competitive in the tablet market. The writing is on the wall as to where are computing needs are going.

not yet....only HP's ePrint compatible printers are. you could network it through your computer but i think that would diminish the printers built in wifi

To my knowledge it does NOT support AirPrint. This printer has been out for sometime and I don't believe AirPrint support was part of the initial printer drivers.

I can print with iMac, but I believe it is only through wifi. Cannot print with ipad or iphone.

This iPad never been an issue with my printer. My issue is it will not work wirelessly with my Apple computer. When I call Lexmark, they want to charge to help me. Don't think that is right.

Sam, I have no problem running this on the three different macs in my studio. I run a Mac Pro, MacBook Pro, and an air, and all three use the printer just fine.

Epson uses its own iPrint App for printing. This app has some browser functionality, so isn't a total inconvenience for the iPad user. If you have an iPad, Epson has several printers now, such as the WorkForce 545 and 645, that support Apple's AirPrint: http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supAdvice.jsp?type=highlights&noteoid;=196563

I use an iPhone with AirPrint to print all the time, so it will work with iPads. Other tablets? I don't know:

Yes, when and if it works it will print from iOS. I recommend you go with a different brand, though.

I really like this printer, however I don't have a Mac, so I really can't tel you if it is compatable. Maybe you could go on line and check it out. I don't know why this printer gets some bad reviews, I have had it for about 2 yrs now and I really like it. I do not have a problem getting ink for it. I order my ink on line.

I found the Apple AirPrint to be less than optimal. It requires more than just a simple Print.I downloaded the Epson "iPrint" app to my iPad and iPhone. That works fine for me.

Ha! Good question. Not as long as my previous photosmart. However, with the air print, I am printing out everything interesting I see on my ipad. I suggest you get the xl ink packs at BJ's or Walmart. Also, the last a lot longer then the warning you get. My printer has been telling me the ink is low for 3 weeks, and my prints are just fine. Wait until the icon on the screen shows empty. I know, more info than you wanted. Hope this helps.

I've never used the Canon printer asked about. I'm very happy with the quality and speed of my Epson 1430. My only complaint is that despite it being Ipad and IPhone compatible it won't work with mine. My Apple stuff works fine with my sons HP. I have had no support from Epson Support. Last time I tried all I got with an older gentleman with an attitude who said I needed to go Apple for support. I am 81 years old myself but have been using printers for over 15 years and being an ex pro photographer I'm very picky about definition and color balance. The 1430 is great improvement over my 1280 which I used for over 9 years trouble free J. Smith

I'm sorry, I had answered your question earlier and had responded on the wrong printer. I did not have a good experience with the Lexmark at all. I deleted my answer it was regarding the other, similarly priced laser color printer I bought just as I was having to return the Lexmark. I feel terrible and hope I didn't steer you wrong.

Yes you can print to this printer from a MAC. If you want to print from an iPad--use the third party program Printopia--works great.

Not sure what you meant by 'air print,' but if it means whether printing can be done via Wi-Fi, yes (USB option is also available). That's the main reason I bought this printer several years ago and it is still going strong (drivers needed to be updated from the Epson site; Windows will direct you there once you install the software).

NO. It will not work with airprint. The answers below are eluding to the fact that you can print wirelessly and that IS true. But it is NOT airprint compatible. It uses a Samsung application you download to the Idevice to print from. Some of which works great. You can print from photos very easily. But that would assume you don't care that you are printing pictures on a black and white printer. You can also print from emails. But you have to input all your login info into the Samsung app. Being a IT professional myself, I get pretty nervous putting my login info into that many applications with unknown security levels. You CAN NOT print from IBooks which is probably my biggest complaint. NO. It will not work with airprint. The answers below are eluding to the fact that you can print wirelessly and that IS true.

I am always amazed that Samsung does not disclose AirPrint compatibility for any of their printers. You would think they would publicize this selling point. Amazon does not say either. I have the same question about other Samsung printers (i.e. 2020) with no answers provided by Samsung or Amazon.
