How to Print from Your iPad

October 3, 2011 Leave a comment

AirPrint is a wireless printing technology and it is a component of Apple iOS, which is used for printing via WiFi. It does not require printer-specific drivers to print, and it can be used with compatible printers and non-compatible printers as well. AirPrint, was developed by Apple Inc., and HP, and it was released on November 22, 2010. The iPads are enabled with AirPrint, and this makes it simple to print from your iPad. You don’t need to download any software or install any drivers or connect any cables. A few taps on your iPad will help you to get your printout. Also, you don’t have to wait until the printing process gets over. The printing will take place in the background, while you can flick photos, videos, play games, surf on web, etc. Printing from your iPad is really easy because, it is absolutely wireless. AirPrint detects the printers nearby using WiFi, and connects to it. You can print emails, photos, word documents, presentations, movie tickets, travel tickets, etc. Photos can be printed, if you have a printer with photo paper tray and this will be automatically selected by AirPrint.

What Printers Work with iPad

October 1, 2011 Leave a comment

The iPad is a marvelous tablet that has clearly changed the dynamics of the computer industry. The iPad may look like a giant iPhone, but make no mistake about it, it is slowly eating into the market share of notebooks and netbooks at a consistent pace. It is also leading to a surge of rival offerings in the tablet market segment, so the future of laptops seems a little bleak at the moment.

There are very few advantages that laptops have over tablets today (admittedly most of them are insurmountable advantages), but one of these benefits has now been struck down by the iPad. The ability to connect a printer to a laptop or even sync it with a laptop wirelessly is something that worked in the favor of notebooks, but now the iPad can do this as well. This is a huge improvement for iPad owners, because now they can print the documents that they need from the iPad, without transferring it to another device before doing so.

The lack of many connector ports on the iPad mean that it will never be possible to connect it to a printer physically, but doing so wirelessly is now possible, thanks to Apple’s AirPrint feature. This feature was a major part of the update to iOS 4.2 versions, and it allows the iPhone, iPad and the iPod Touch to print files wirelessly from a printer. The downside is that there are very few wireless laser printers that this feature can work with, and these are all HP printers, thanks to a partnership between the two companies.

History of the iPod

July 14, 2011 Leave a comment

Bridging the gap between a phone and a computer, Apple’s iPad is a “do anything and everything” kind of device. Laptop computers have become a necessity in today’s world, as a portable PC. So in one corner, we have the defending champion, the laptop, and in the other corner, the challenger, iPad. Without further ado, let the iPad vs laptop debate begin!

Basic Features of an iPad

The iPad is said to be a super gadget, combining an e-reader, gaming device, digital photo frame and iPod, into a single device. It’s a tablet PC, with the size and weight roughly between smartphones and laptops. It uses the same OS as the Apple’s iPhone and the iPod Touch. Apple has small application programs designed for web browsing, videos, emails, maps, etc., called Apps, and the iPad is equipped with many apps, plus you can install them using the App Store. The touch screen is easy to clean and Apple users will adapt easily to the iPad look and feel. The latest iPad model has a 1Ghz Apple processor and Wi-Fi antenna with bluetooth connectivity. The “walled-garden” approach of the iPhone is extended in the iPad. To purchase and download movies and music, one has to use the iTunes store. To buy new software for the iPad, you need to use the App Store which allows only Apple accepted software. That was a quick glance at the iPad in the iPad vs laptop review. Now onto the laptop.

Basic Features of a Laptop

Trying to sum up what a laptop does is like trying to fit the Atlantic ocean into a glass. A laptop can be thought of as a tablet PC ancestor. Laptops combined the functionality of a desktop with the great portability of a mobile phone. I know you can’t put the laptop into your pocket like a phone, but it beats trying to take a desktop everywhere. In business, entertainment, gaming, networking, name the sphere of use, there is a laptop for it. Laptops have Wi-Fi, bluetooth, USB connectivity, web cameras… every time there’s a new technology, it’s there in the laptop. Another great feature of a laptop is versatility and openness. Each manufacturer has something unique to offer, and you can install everything and anything onto a laptop.
