Q: How do you set up AirPrint on epson xp-205?

No matter what I do, even if I follow the set up FAQs I have found online to the letter, I still cannot set up AirPrint. I'm on iOS 7.0.3 on my iPad and am running Windows 8.1 on my PC but use only Firefox. So please only answer if set up possible on Firefox. If not and set up mut be done using Internet Explorer (IE), then say so and I will then have to break my cardinal rule on never using IE and use IE to set up printer only.

iPad, Other OS, I am on iOS 7.

    Go to the bottom of this article and their are some tips: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

     

    Make sure your printer has the latest firmware from Epson and both the iPad and the printer have to be connected to the same network. I'm not sure what Firefox has to do with this?

    I have a different Epson printer.  But I was able to set it up as a WiFi printer by simply typing all the necessary information (e.g., network name, password) into the Epson's Control Panel.  Perhaps you could do the same.

     

    Another approach would be to download the (free) Epson iPrint app onto your iPad.  If the Epson printer is already on your WiFi network, iPrint should see it.  Then you could press the printer name at the top, go to "Advanced Settings" near the bottom, and choose "AirPrint Setup"!
