Hi Dave,
Did you ever get an answer to this ? I have the same issue - I've been to epson site and downloaded the latest drivers for the XP630 printer and got CD Print from them - bit it won't connect to the printer for CD printing..Bizarre...
AFAIK - You cannot disable AirPrint. It is a built in feature of the OS and it can't be disabled or removed.
Apparently features built into the ios can't have an ON/OFF switch. Except for most of the other features on the iPad that are built in.
What printer brand and model is it?
Some models may allow disabling Bonjour broadcasting which will prevent AirPrint usage, it should not be an issue if you use Windows PCs only beside the iOS devices however it may affect if you use a Macintosh computers as well.

I am trying to print a CD with Epson CD Print ver 2,31 and have had no issues until using iPhone AirPrint and now I get the message
Your Mac is connected to the printer via AirPrint.
To print from Print CD, you need to use a driver provided by Epson.
I have updated the latest software for the Epson printer EP-707A
What am I doing wrong?
I have the same problem and have yet to get an answer.
Hi. This is an old thread about preventing devices from using AirPrint. It sounds instead like you are having trouble printing. I suggest that you post a new question describing your specific problem. Include your device and printer type, and describe the steps you have already tried. A good first step is always to restart the router, so it can refresh its tables.
Hi Andy. As I said above, try a new question in the proper forum (iMac?) and you might find someone with an answer. No one's likely to see it with the AirPrint topic in this iPad forum.
