Printer for ipad

I recently got an iPad air and my Kodak printer won't work with it. Does anyone know which printer brands are compatible with the iPad? TY!

Read my post on Printer Pro a few posts down..there is an app you can download to your iPad and a download you can download to a pc or mac...you must have a wireless wifi connection for it to work...it works really well..you might be able to get the Kodak to work and not need to buy a new printer...if you don't have a pc or mac then you probably need to buy a new printer....DW

I have a Canon all in one MG5520 & I can print from my iPad using it. Just look for iPad Air compatible printers. Look at the specs on the printer to see if it says anything about AirPrint. The printer I have is now available for $60 free shipping on Amazon.

We use a HP Officejet 4620- Print/scan/copy/fax. It works great with the iPad.

Yes, download Printer Pro Lite first, it is free. It lets you print a test page to see if it will print with your equipment. If it does you can download the full version for 6.99. It just does simple printing and the menus are easy to follow. What it doesn't allow you to do is to get into printer preferences on your printer. But for me it is what I needed.

Yep I was happy with what this app did. Just needed simple printing, and I didn't need to buy new printer..DW

I also have the HP Envy 5530 and love it. You can print wirelessly from your iPad and computer.I bought mine at Best Buy for around $90.
