[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1491434, member: 110816"] OK..plain English.. You can ONLY print from iOS devices over WiFi to a compatible printer. You can make a incompatible printer compatible by running programs like Printopia on a Mac to share a printer that is directly attached to the Mac.. As far as creating a private network and all that jazz, you don't have to do anything and whoever told you about the external connection stuff was lying to you.. A router will automatically hand out IP addresses to any devices that connect to it. Once you have the printer and iPad connected to the router (using the proper WiFi password), you can do all of your printing. You really just need to get a router, enable the wireless and set a password. Follow the instructions of your printer to get it into onto the WiFi router. On the iPad, enable WiFi and it will find the router, choose the network name, enter the password and you are done. [/QUOTE]
