May 29, 2013 9:04 PM in response to marlafromMTLby sberman,I don't have any specific recommendations ... maybe a Google search would help ...
But I will say that if you find a candidate printer, make sure it's one of those listed in the AirPrint Basics article you attached above. You definitely want any printer that you might buy to support Apple's AirPrint. They're all listed in that article.
Good luck.

May 30, 2013 9:24 AM in response to sbermanby marlafromMTL,i've researched my research!..i've spoken to many HP' s rep, unfortunaltey my wish list for all components needed is not available at this time it seems.
I want MOBILE, LASERPRINT, to print from IPAD2, so AIRPRINT.
Seems it is going to be an issue of supplying strong enough power to the Trucks for the laserjet HP P1102W that we DID purchase to have proper power.
thanks.

May 30, 2013 11:07 AM in response to marlafromMTLby rccharles,if you insist on using a non - Airprint printer, look at:
1) Buy another box
"xPrintServer enables wireless printing for iOS devices such as iPads® and iPhones® using their native print menu. It eliminates the need to print through apps, install software, or email yourself documents for printing. And more importantly, you don't need to buy a new printer because xPrintServer works with more than 4,000 top brand USB and network printers. "

You have to check whether this box supports your printer

2)

You can refill Canon ink jet cartiridges. Verify before buying. Good check is to see if folks are selling re-cycled cartiridges on ebay.
Epson printer have the print head with the printer not the cartiridges. So, the third party cartridges are cheaper, but the printers don't last as long.

Mar 16, 2014 8:05 PM in response to marlafromMTLby tonkalake,Hi....I'm having a similar situation....Am looking into installing a HP 1102w in my trucks as well...but am having power issues. I prefer a laserjet as I have to be printing invoices for sales done on the road. Am looking at upping my inverter at the moment...but am a bit unsure it will solve the problem. Have you ironed out the power issue?
