    See requirements for AirPrint and printers that support AirPrint here:

     

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356

     

    If your printer supports AirPrint but does not work then:

     

    Your printer might need a firmware update

    Your printer must be on the same WiFi network

    Your router must support Bonjour (Zero-configuration networking).

     

    For troubleshooting:

     

    Turn Off iPad, WiFi router (remove from power), and Printer (remove from power).

     

    Turn on WiFi router

    Wait 30 seconds

    Turn on printer

    Wait 30 seconds

    Turn on iPad

    Try to print.

    Go to the cannon website and look up your printer.   Under wireless help: It will have information on how to print, including apps to download if needed.

    The specs say that this printer is Airprint capable.  Are the iPad and printer on the same WiFi network? According to Canon tech specs that is the fist step in using Airprint.
