You cannot connect a printer to an iPad and print via a a cable. There is NO way to download printer drivers to an iPad. Your printer either needs to be AirPrint capable or have an app in the app store which can permit printing through the app.

See this link about AirPrint printers --> Use AirPrint to print from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
