Airprint with HP C8100?

I am trying to use Airprint from iOS 4.2 but I can never find the printer.

The printer is on the network.

(Windows network, no macs involved).

iPhone4, Windows Vista, 64Bit Vista

RandomPhil86,

I am sorry your Photosmart C8100 will not be getting an update to support AirPrint. There are several threads in this forum talking about Windows work arounds. I haven't tried any of them, so I can't comment. If I find a solution that is supported by a third party, I will post a link to it here.

Just trying to help.

Andrew
