Go to Advanced, Components, PDS (again, acronym) > Listeners > change Default IPP Port from 631 to 6310 Go to Advanced, Components, PDG (I forget what it's an acronym for, look for the full words, not acronym) - Configure - IPP - change Default IPP Port from 6310 to 631 Navigate to Printeron config at Make sure ports are set correctly in PrinterOn Our network guy also makes sure the iPad network can talk to the printeron server via port 631. Our server admin gets the printers into printeron (I can get you more info on this if you need it probably). Good luck, and if you find a way please let me know! So far this is not working and PrinterOn support have been less than helpful. The closest I have come is PrinterOn, they specifically mention in their documentation (Print Delivery Gateway (PDG) Installation Guide) that you can enable native iOS AirPrint without the use of Bonjour by configuring the PDG to listen on port 631. I believe Printopia listens on 6310 and cannot be changed to 631 therefore it relies on Bonjour which is not possible without serious network changes when you want to scope printers to different iPads and there are many different subnets involved. When using the Config Profiles, my understanding is that you enter the IP and RP (if req.) however the IP address you enter must be able to listen, receive and respond appropriately to IPP requests on port 631, which is currently occupied by the CUPS server running on you Mac. I have tried Printopia, custom CUPS server running on Ubuntu etc. Hi are not alone in this conundrum! I too am trying to deliver AirPrint to our Junior School iPads however I have not found a solution that works with the Config Profiles and non-AirPrint capable printers. We have non-AirPrint compatible print devices and I am trying to setup PrinterOn with the MDM method of deployment without using Bonjour at all. Tried it again tonight at home as your get a 60 day trial and my home printer and away you go.Īny questions fire away as I am in the office on Thursday and plan to do more testing if my boss brings his iPad in so we can play with it a bit more.Hi hoping you can help me as I am trying to setup a proof of concept for PrinterOn however I am having some trouble. Took a little longer due to tracking the problem down with why it wasn't been discovered on the iPad but soon sorted. Few other steps needed in the software around authentication but we did it on a 2003 server with a Sharp MFD. You run the installer, install the mobile gateway and configure it, tell it which printer you want to publish as such as an air printer, install the app on the iPad and it discovers them providing you have multicast enabled on your WiFI, the one in question today was a Meru one. I have done an install of EveryonePrint today, omg, this is one of the most easiest ways to get iPads printing via a Windows server if you just want to be able to print and not fussed about tracking and authentication, ideal for a primary school exactly where I did it today. I am yet to try FingerPrintIOS via PaperCut its on my list of things to try in the office this week. Has anyone used it and is so, how well does that work?Īny other suggestions, has anyone successfully rolled out printing on a large scale like this and managed to retain at least some sort of control over it? I've not been doing any evaluating yet, but a few options spring out at me.ġ) We have papercut for our printer/copier management and I know there's an app which works with this for printing, so how effective is that and how does it work? does anyone has experience of it?Ģ) I've some across Printopia which allows sharing of printers via an apple mac using the Air Print system Printopia - AirPrint to Any Printer - Print from iPad - Print from iPhone - Ecamm Network we have plenty of macs in the building that could act as hosts for this for each department, so has anyone used that and how well does it work?ģ) I've found this iPad Printing and iPhone Printing with EFI Fiery direct mobile printing and our Ricoh MFP printers are supported - as we have one of these per department it would be suitable. Thus far we have encouraged electronic sharing and sending of work via Dropbox/email/Webdav, but we are now being pushed to supply some form of printing ability from these devices as apparently it's needed. We have 450 iPads, but no printing solution for them.
