That being said, if you can set you iPhone or iPad to be a WiFi hotspot, you might be able to get a printer to join that network, in which case printing jus might work. I don't know, I never tried it. The only printers that I know of for sure that support Airprint out of the box are certain HP models and many recent Canon printers. Others on the list may have more information.
