Printing from ipad
I can print off an email from my iPad 2 no problem, but when I try to print a page from a website eg an online order, it won't do it. I use google as browser
Why, and what do I have to do? |

Not all Apps are AirPrint friendly. Though you would think Google would make their browser compatible.
What if you open the exact same webpage in Safari, will it print then? And what are you using to read e-mails? Are you using the Apple Mail app or something else? The Apple Apps are more likely to be AirPrint compatible which would explain why they work. |

Does it work from Safari?
I was wondering if there was something I had to do within the Google app to enable it |

What version of Google Chrome (I assume this is what you mean by "Google"?) are you using. From version 26.0.1410.50 Chrome for iOS has been able to use AirPrint. When you go to print something you should get an option to use AirPrint

Have you tried screen capturing the page in question and printing that?

It's just google
I do have chrome and safari on iPad , and they print, but for some reason, Google doesnt It could be that the Google search app simply isn't Airprint enabled. If it isn't then you will just have to wait and hope Google get round to enabling it. |
