airprint and Canon MG 6120 printer

Hi. I selected Airprint on the ipad and it found the printer but said it was low on ink and would not pring. I just bought the printer the otehr day and so far have printed 4 pages of text. For some reason there are 2 printer drivers in the computer 'Canon MG6100 series' and 'PhotoSmart D110 series'. The iPad only sees the 1 driver, the photosmart one. When I print from my computer it uses the Canon MG6100 series. Both drivers let me check the ink level and the Canon MG6100 says they are full but the photosmart version says low. The PS one is wrong but the iPad only sees the PS driver and not the other one?

What to do?

Similar problem.

I use an iPad 2, and Canon MG 6120. The iPad does not see the printer via wi-fi.

My iMac sees it ok, and prints just fine.

Using the Canon iOS app, I can print photos from the iPad however.

Is that all there is?

The Canon is not AirPrint compatible. Try the apps Printopia or Print n Share.
