Hi,


It would probably be correct to assume that the iPhone is connected to the same Wi-Fi router as the printer, and that all Wi-Fi settings are OK.


A few more things to try:

  • a printer firmware update (if available)
  • a full power-cycle sequence (router, printer, iPhone)
  • turning off a VPN (if applicable)
  • turning off the private Wi-Fi address feature (if applicable)


If the printer (make and model?) has Ethernet in addition to Wi-Fi, you could also check whether there would be a difference if you wire the printer to one of the LAN ports of the router (instead of using a wireless printer connection). AirPrint works with wireless or wired network connections.
