Hello gr876,
You would not be able to print to a printer using a USB cable. The only printing allowed from an iPad or any other iOS device is using AirPrint and that is done over a wireless network and an AirPrint enabled printer. Check out the articles below to go over AirPrint and also a list of AirPrint enabled printers.
Print from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
