    PPrinting from an ipad is iffy at best. You can always email the file as an attachment to any windows tablet or desktop and print the file from there.

    iPads natively print to printers that are air print enabled.

    About AirPrint - Apple Support

     

    has a list of printer models

     

    I wouldn't count on using air print simply because it's limited to certain manufacturers and models

    Printer companies can have apps of their own (must be a wifi printer though), or can have work arounds of their own.

    There are also third party printing apps out there. I used print n share but there are others.

     

    However all apps are skinnied down versions of computer programs so if there's any formatting you may have issues replicating it.

     

    I think the safest bet is to carry a flash drive or e-mail that file to someone and have them print it for you.
