Can airprint works through the USB,wifi,network and direct connection??

AirPrint is a network technology. So it works via WiFi and Ethernet connections.

I uploaded above image of UI which I got after installing air printer.

This view is typical of an AirPrint printer. But I believe you get the same view with a standard HP driver. So to confirm what printer driver you are using, open Printers & Scanners and select the HP. The pane on the right side next to the word Kind may show AirPrint in the name.

That is interesting. I've never had a printer that supports AirPrint use the AirPrint driver when connected via USB. Yet the same AirPrint printer when networked will automatically default to the AirPrint driver.


So your view would suggest I am wrong and that AirPrint is not just for network connections.


I notice your image is showing the connection (Status) as offline. Was the USB disconnected from the Mac when you took this screen capture?


FYI - the two images you have shown are very similar to what I see for my Canon MG6250 using the AirPrint driver.

Can you give me path where airprint driver is present in os?/

I don't actually know the path. I know it is not present in /Library/Printers. Since it has a common view for all devices then I expect that the PPD would reside somewhere in one of the hidden CUPS folders. After you create the printer the PPD resides in /etc/cups/ppd with the other printer PPDs. But I am not sure where it resides before the printer is created.
