Apr 18, 2013 3:00 PM in response to Stevenstevo7by sberman,Assuming your Epson is on the same WiFi network as your iPad, and properly (wirelessly) configured, try this:
Download the (free) Epson iPrint app from the App Store. Use it to find your printer. Assuming it finds it, choose "Maintenance" (from the bottom of the iPrint app), then Printer Settings, then Firmware Update. Cycle power on your printer and router. By then, AirPrint should work.

Apr 18, 2013 11:45 PM in response to sbermanby Stevenstevo7,Thank you for your help. My ipad has now found my printer but it still won't find it as an AirPrint printer. Do you know what should be typed in bonjour service name and bonjour location that appear in the AirPrint setup?

Apr 19, 2013 12:35 AM in response to Stevenstevo7by sberman,My bonjour service name is simply the name of my printer (Epson WorkForce 645), and my bonjour location is blank.
My top priority protocol says Port9100.
Hope that helps.
