Hi, according to Apple's list of Airprint-compatible printers, this model printer is not Airprint-compatible. In order to print from an Apple device, you would need something that provides Airprint capability to the printer, such as the Lantronix xPrintServer. This print server gives your printer Airprint functionality so you can print to it from Apple devices.
