Which printers are compatible with iPhone?

If you want to print directly from the iPhone, use the AirPrint function. This enables wireless printing via WLAN. For this to work, you need a printer that supports the function. Incompatible devices can be retrofitted with free software.

Printer with AirPrint support

With the help of AirPrint, you can print directly from your iPhone in a short time. However, you need the right printer for this, because not every device supports the function. On suitable devices, you will find the Apple icon along with the indication that AirPrint technology can be used. If you buy online, you will find the information under "Extras" or "Properties". If you already have a printer and it doesn't support AirPrint, you don't need to buy a new device. Instead, you can install the "AirPrint Activator" software and upgrade your hardware that way. You can find the program for free on the web.
