Configuring Airprint - Xerox WorkCentre 6027 User Manual

Configuring AirPrint

Use AirPrint to print from a wired or wireless device directly without using a print driver. AirPrint is a
software feature that allows you to print from wired or wireless Apple iOS-based mobile devices and Mac
OS-based devices without the need to install a print driver. AirPrint-enabled printers allow you to print or
fax directly from a Mac, an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Notes:
• Not all applications support AirPrint.
• Wireless devices must join the same wireless network as the printer.
• For AirPrint to function, both IPP and Bonjour (mDNS) protocols must be enabled.
• The device that submits the AirPrint job must be on the same subnet as the printer. To allow
devices to print from different subnets, configure your network to pass multicast DNS traffic
across subnets.
• The Mac OS device must be Mac OS 10.7 or later.
• AirPrint-enabled printers work with all models of iPad, iPhone (3GS or later), and iPod touch
(3rd generation or later), running the latest version of iOS.

(mDNS) protocols.
