    Like everything else, there's an app. Best of all, it doesn't need any of Apple's proprietary software to be installed on the MFP.




    It also works on Android and BlackBerry 10 devices.

      Thanks so much, it seems easy enough. Do they need post script installed for this to work?

        Thanks again for the information. I will assume post script falls under the "proprietary software" category and is not needed. The cust will be glad to hear that.

          You shouldn't need PostScript at all since this is all application based printing, though the MP 171 I use in the office does have a PostScript chip in it. The proprietary software I was really referring to was support for Apple's AirPlay protocol.

          I'm more familiar with the Android version that's resting on my BlackBerry and a few Android tablets as opposed to the iOS version, but the application should work just as well on Apple devices.
