Q: Can a non Airprint printer be configured with a new Macbook Air?
Recently purchased a new Macbook Air. Can it be configured with an older printer on our wi-fi network that doesn't have Airprint?
iPhone 5c, iOS 8

Sure. At the end of the day, COMMAND + P (or CONTROL + P in Windows) still sends that same basic PRINT command to the default printer. Doesn't matter what printer it is.
The only issue is the printer driver software. If the printer manufacturer has written a driver that works with the MacBook Air, just download it, install it, and make your old printer the default.
