HP Laser Jet Pro 4001dw not connecting with AirPrint

The HP Laser Jet Pro 4001dw does connect with AirPrint. It has the AirPrint logo on box. If Apple says can not be done call HP - they'll do it. Don't know why Apple not know but each Apple Support person knows different stuff.

Called Apple Support to connect HP LaserJet Pro 4001dw to Apple Air Print. Apple said it was not on list and therefore could not be done. The HP printer has the Apple Air Print on its box. The Apple Community said the 4001dw could NOT be connected to AirPrint.


I called HP and they connected me to Apple AirPrint. Now why can't Apple do that?

I would say by default apple would have no idea how


airprint is a generic interface apple made so all printers on a network show up and can be printed to without any extra steps


if there are extra steps in term of getting a HP LaserJet Pro 4001dw to work with airprint then it's steps that hp added to the mix, there are 1000s of printer manufactors out there so apple would never be able to keep up as to how one needs to configure those of them that support airprint to well work with airprint.


sort of like if you buy a toyota vehicle and then buy a blaupunkt car radio and have issues with it, then toyota will not be able to fix your issue, but blaupunkt who makes the radio would.
