    What is AirPrint?

    Apple AirPrint allows full colour, top-quality printing from iOS devices such as iPhones and iPads directly from within many Apps available from the Apple App Store.

    To take advantage of AirPrint, your compatible printer must be connected to the same wireless network as your iOS device or Mac computer.

    AirPrint enables users to print wirelessly from within applications on Apple devices to AirPrint Compatible Printers connected to a wireless network. You can use your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad to easily print via Airprint without the need to install drivers or configure the printer queue. Just tap 'print' and select your AirPrint compatible printer, and print!....It's that simple.

    What You See is What You Print

    If you can open it on your apple device, chances are you can print it with AirPrint and an AirPrint compatible printer. Airprint works with Safari, Mail, Photos, iWork, PDF's in iBooks and many third-party AirPrint compatible apps available from the app store.

    Full list of AirPrint compatible printers

    Third-Party Apps

    There are also a wide variety of third-party apps available to enable wireless printing through Apple devices, even to machines that are not natively AirPrint compatible printers. By sharing a printer installed on an Apple Mac or Windows Pc over a wireless network any printer may be able to take advantage of the AirPrint features. (An additional third-party app may be required to be installed on the local machine)

    *For full AirPrint support, a printer firmware upgrade may be required which is available directly from the relevant manufacturer website.

    Please note. Whilst every effort has been made to ensure that the above information is correct at the time of publication, Printerland will not be held responsible for the content of any third-party software suggested on this site and usage of any such software is at the users own risk. Printerland is unable to provide support for Airprint compatible printer software and any such advice should be readily available from the relevant manufacturer or developer

  • NFC Printing
    NFC Printing

    Samsung NFC Printing

    NFC is the acronym for Near Field Communication, a new form of data transfer commonly found in smartphones and other similar, portable devices.

    NFC allows devices, in this case smartphones and printers to send and receive wireless data when in close proximity. There is no need for extra cables or complicated connection set-up, just walk up to the printer and tap print on your device to print a photograph, document or webpage with ease.

    *NFC is only compatible between NFC ready devices.

Reliable little workhorse for small business / home use
Had this printer for almost 4 years after exccellent customer service from Printerland in hepling me choose it. Works reliably although I did have a problem after a couple of years and the manufacturers were great at sorting it out as part of the multi-year on-site warranty. Great little addition to the business

Let down by faint printing
This printer is well priced, has good features, can be used with Linux. We've had one for about 2-3 years (from the otherwise excellent Printerland people) and it has been faultless except in one important respect. The printing quality has always been a bit faint, but when a toner cartridge (own brand or any other) reaches about 2/3 full, the printing gets so faint the it has to be graded sub-standard. No amount of changing settings, cartridges or print drum permanently fixes the problem. We'll try Brother soon.
