    Hello Hingerrj,

     

    It sounds like you have a printer connected to your printer and want to print from your iOS devices to it. The printer in question would need to support a function called AirPrint to be able to do so. Here is more information on that:

     

    AirPrint

    AirPrint is an Apple technology that lets you create full-quality printed output without the need to download or install drivers. AirPrint is built in to many printer models from most popular printer manufacturers. Just select an AirPrint printer on your local network and print from your favorite iOS or OS X app.

    From: AirPrint Basics

              http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356

     

    Within the same article is a list of printers that support the function for you to use as a reference.

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

    All the very best,

    Sterling
