Configuring Printer To Mini Ipad

[chokkie]

Hi techie Abers out there. Two questions about configuring stuff to mini ipads.

1. Can you configure a regular (wireless) printer to a mini ipad. I have tried to do this, but it doesn't seem to work. My uncle has been trying to configure a printer to my mother in law's mini ipad and he can't get them to speak to each other ....

2. I have a pair of those wireless/cordless bluetooth "apple" style earbuds. Can I configure these to my mini ipad if i switch on the Bluetooth button? Have tried earlier this week, but it doesn't seem to work.

Would be grateful for your advice, please, TIA, Chox.

Does your printer support AirPrint? (i.e. is it listed here? https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201311 )

If so, the instructions here should enable you to print from your iPad Mini:

Otherwise you'll need to buy a suitable app. Scroll down to 'Using a printer without AirPrint support' here for some possibilities:

Thanks so much for your helpful advice. Our printer isn't compatible with Airprint, but we're not fussed about printing from our mini ipad. But I will pass this information on to my MIL and uncle. Really appreciate your help with this, Cheers, chox.
