Print from iPad with USB

For the new gen of iPad(exp: iPad pro) , can I print anything from it using printer that is without AirPrint? Can I use the usb-lightning adapter to do it?

No.

iPads still only wirelessly print.


No iPad connects by wire to any printer/scanner or optical CD/DVD/Blu-ray drives.

iPads are not full laptop/MacBook computers no matter how much some people/users want them to be so.


Sorry.
