It's pretty easy actually. Just download the Canon Pixma Maxify App on your iPad from the App Store and made sure your printer is connected/searchable to your home wi-fi network.

Scott M. is correct. The printer does not have wireless capability. But if you have a router for a home network, connect the printer to a port on the router with an Ethernet cable. Then every device that can talk to the router can see and use the printer. In our house we have three laptops and an iPad all using the printer without difficulty.

As far as I am concerned the wireless on this printer is a very weak point. I'm sure it will work well if it connects. I have an HP tower computer that it will not connect to. HP techs took over control of my machine and in 2.5 hrs cound not make it work. Good news for you is I have an iPad and it does connect with it, go figure. So, it should work, but if you want 100% assurance I cannot give you that.

Yes, I can forward it from the iPad to my printer via my wireless connection.

Correct...Ipad is not a windows-based laptop. It's an apple based computer. You will need to go into the app store and look for the epson apps. There are 2. Be sure to read your guide as there are many ways to print using the cloud. The first time you print from your device; you will be impressed. It also works well with iphone. All devices you plan to print from must have this app installed: it's also available for Android. One of the neat feature with wi-fi printing is that once you set up your printer for cloud printing; you will be able to send virtually any print job to your printer as an e-mail. The software assigns this; you may already have done that. Correct...Ipad is not a windows-based laptop. It's an apple based computer.

I glanced through the manuals and it looks like you can set up this printer on a network, so all computers on the network could have access. The iPad/iPhone airprint feature looks like it may be a proximity thing.

I didn't have this one set-up for WiFi but just set it up and printed from my iPhone so I'm sure it will print from your iPad.

I have both as well and the Surface comes to work with me. It connects to my network, prints wirelessly to my HP wireless printer and has a full size USB port on the side. Take that Apple!!! My iPad stays at home!

I have a wireless router on my network and I can print over wi-fi from my Apple devices. I think that's only because the printer is connected by Ethernet to the router. The printer itself doesn't have a wi-fi receiver.

I purchased mine wired only. I believe they do sell a model that is wired and wireless but that is an extra cost. You can print from Apple devices using the Hp ePrint service (uses the cloud) or by using the free HP printing applications available in the Apple App Store. I have had success with both in the past but don't use them often.

I have the same Brother printer connected to my PC home network and can print wirelessly from iPhone, ipad, and laptop. When you go to the print section on the device it should ask to identify the printer you want to use. If your printer is turned on and connected to the home network, it should show up as an option. Just click on it and start printing.

I'm not sure, do you have WiFi or a wire connection? When you press print a menu should come up for you to choose a printer.

set it up with the wireless (WIFI) connection. i did that in my house & it worked much better than trying to connect with a cable. Now any PC with WIFI can print to it, including Tablets

One of the reasons that I bought this printer was the wireless capability. I haven't tried an ipad, but I have been unsuccessful in my attempts to print wirelessly (from computer or iphone).
