Hello, we have this 5111n installed in a construction trailer and we find out that the customer needs to be able to print from their I Pads. They have like eight or ten people with I Pads that need to be able to print from them. We see this model does not come equipped to support airprinting. I was hoping someone can tell me a way to airprint with this machine. Thanks for any help with this.

Re: 5111n airprinting
sharpdesk mobile, and I think you need postscript, I have schools that print from an ipad using sharpdesk mobile and mx-5110n(with postscript)and the 5110n does not have wifi either. The school has a wireless router for the ipad and chromebooks(yes google cloud print also works on the 5110, even though sharp has firmware for the aries2 and virgo2 series.) and as long as the ipad is on the same network thru wifi and the app can see the printer you can scan and print to/from the sharp mfp.
I think there are other apps, search the forums under sharp and connectivity -

Check out a product called Lantronix. They make a airprinter interface that sits on your network.Evil will always triumph because good is dumb.Comment

Re: 5111n airprinting
You can enable AirPrint for Windows for free: How to enable AirPrint for Windows
Doing so will allow any AirPrint device to print to any printer on the Windows Server or PC. (The printer must be shared first).Comment
