Can I print direct to my existing WiFi printer/what is WePrint?
[app] supports printing direct to most WiFi printers which means your printer will automatically be listed and enable you to select it.
Once you select your printer just tap "Test" on each of the options and this will ensure you use the best possible method for printing.
If your printer is having issues, or you do not have a WiFi printer - you can use the free WePrint relay software on your Mac or PC. If WePrint is required you will not need to touch or be near your computer to print,
you simply tap print on your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch and the computer will act as a relay and automatically pass the print job from your device onto your printer without user intervention
Installing WePrint on your Mac or PC will also give you the ability to print via 3G/EDGE, so even when you are out of your office/home you can quickly and easily send print jobs to
your printer from your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch.
You can download WePrint helper software by clicking here
Once installed [app] should find all your printers on WePrint automatically, if this is not the case then click here
to go to the trouble shooting section.

Printing using 3G/Edge instead of WiFi
Quick Start Guide
- Create a new gmail account from this Gmail Link
- Add the gmail username and password to the Print via Proxy tab in the Settings of WePrint, installed on your computer or download by clicking here
- On your iPad/iPhone, tap on the "+" button when you view the Printers screen. Add the gmail username and password in the Print via 3G tab.
Generally, when you are in your local WiFi network [app] will automatically find your WePrint server in your network and allow you to print straight away. If you are not in the same network as
the WePrint server, or you want to print via 3G/Edge you can use the "Print via Proxy" option in the WePrint settings.
We strongly recommend you set up a new Gmail account in the WePrint settings. WePrint produces authentication email that sit in the inbox,
if you use an existing account it may get cluttered with these emails.
Please do not confuse the Print via Proxy function with printing from an email account, we are simply using this Gmail account as a transport method. If [app] allows it, you can set up
your email accounts to print in "Email" section of the app on your iPhone/iPad
Full Instructions
- Click here to create a new Gmail account. You can use another email account but the app works best with Gmail and all the settings are
preset. It is the quickest and easiest way to get it set up and working. Make sure you don't use this gmail account in any other email application or the WePrint emails may be removed.
- Download and install the free WePrint software on your Mac or PC by clicking here
- Go to WePrint on your computer and click the "Settings" button, now click on the "Print via Proxy" tab
- Check the "Remote Printing via an Email/WebDAV server" option
- Enter the user name and password of the new Gmail account and hit test, a green check mark will appear
- Go to [app] on your iPad/iPhone and open it, go ahead and print something like a contact (click here for a guide)
- When you get the screen headed up "Print", press the blue "Choose" button on the right of the "Printer" box
- Tap the + button and choose the "Print via 3G" tab
- Enter the user name and password for the Gmail account you put into WePrint on your computer.
- Press "Save" to save the settings.
- You should now see a list of the printers you have available, select one and then tap Print
If you have an office network with a firewall that blocks email server access, you could use iDisk or another WebDAV server such as http://box.net. During step 5. select the type drop down in the WePrint
settings to select iDisk or WebDAV. If you use box.net, the URL is http://box.net/dav
When printing, make sure the "Server" field on the Print screen displays the server name starting with "Proxy:". WePrint doesn't need to be running to print via proxy,
and it is generally not restricted by firewalls. WePrint can be started later to collect the printed documents, so is great when traveling
If you have any issues with the setup then please see our Print via Proxy troubleshooting section

Printing photos/images via WePrint
Images can be printed using different sizes and paper trays. Paper tray selection will depend on your System and printer support. You can select the image size on the iPad/iPhone,
in the bottom of the print screen when printing images. If you use the default image size, the size will be taken from the image size field in the WePrint settings -> Images tab.
For photo printing, it is best to use "Fill page". If photos are cut off or you see white bands, you can adjust the image margins in the WePrint settings - Images tab.
You can use negative margins to extend the print area if needed.
If images don't appear to be the correct size, you can also adjust the "Image scaling" setting in the WePrint settings to adjust the image scale to suit your printer.
This will apply to all image size formats that you select on the iPhone eg. 3x5, 4x6, except "Fill Page"

My device says "Error connecting to the server". It can’t find the WePrint server
- If you don't have WePrint installed on your PC or Mac computer, you can install it by clicking here
- On rare occasions connection problems occur and are usually caused by your Firewall. Check the Windows or Macintosh help page to make sure your
firewall isn’t blocking connections. Try turning off your firewall temporarily to test it.
- In the app print screen, press the blue "Choose" button beside the printer field. In the next screen press "Add Server" and if it doesn't find it automatically, enter the WePrint server details.
- Try also changing the WePrint port number in the WePrint Settings - Advanced tab. Set the custom port number to 8081 or 8082 etc. Make sure you change the port on your device too if you do this.
- Check that your device is connected to your Wi-Fi router with a password if it needs one. Some routers allow guest access with no password, but that blocks access between devices in the same network.
If your router has password access, enter it in your iPhone/iPad settings.
- Some routers have a feature in the router Admin screens called "AP Isolation". This will block access between devices. Check that "AP Isolation"/"Wireless Client Isolation" is off.
If find after trying all of these steps you are simply blocked for no reason, or you want to print via 3G/Edge you can use the "Print via Proxy" option in the WePrint settings. We strongly
recommend you set up a new Gmail account in the WePrint settings. You can use another email account but it is much easier to create a Gmail account
and use the default settings. Make sure you don't use this gmail account in any other email application or the WePrint emails may be removed.
On the your device, when you get the Print screen, press the blue "Choose" button beside the printer name and then press the "Add Server" button. Press the "Print via Proxy" tab and enter the same email account as WePrint.
Press "Save" to save the settings.
If you have an office network with a firewall that blocks email server access, you could use iDisk or another WebDAV server such as http://box.net. Tap on the "Type" field in the Print via Proxy tab on your device,
or select the type drop down in the WePrint settings to select iDisk or WebDAV. If you use box.net, the URL is http://box.net/dav
When printing, make sure the "Server" field on the Print screen displays the server name starting with "Proxy:". WePrint doesn't need to be running to print via proxy, is generally not restricted by firewall's,
and can be started later to collect the printed documents, so is great when traveling

What is "Server address" and "Server port" in the Add print server screen?
The server address and port tell your device where your WePrint server is so it can communicate with it. The main window of the WePrint server (on your desktop or laptop computer)
will display these values so you can copy them to your device. You can change the port number by clicking on WePrint -> Settings -> Advanced -> Use custom server port number.
Try changing the port to 8081 or 8082

I configured Print via Proxy but it is not working.
Do you have "Proxy:" showing in the server field of the Print screen on the iPhone? If not, use the blue "Choose" button beside the Printer field to select or add a proxy server.
- If you are having problems using "Print via Proxy" the first thing you should do is create a Gmail account purely for "Print via Proxy". This is to avoid other apps deleting emails from this account. It doesn't mean that you can't print emails from other email accounts.
- Quit WePrint, delete all WePrint subject emails in the gmail inbox and start WePrint again.
- Go to the the "Print via Proxy" option in the WePrint settings. Turn on "Remote printing via and Email/WebDAV server". Make sure the gmail account and password is entered and press the "Test" and then the "Save" button.
- Go to your gmail inbox and make sure there is a new WePrint email there. It should contain a single attachment. if not, check your settings in WePrint.
- Once that is set up go to the iPhone/iPad and when you get the Print screen, press the blue "Choose" button beside the printer name (or and then press the "Add Server" button. Press the "WePrint via Proxy" tab and enter the same email account as WePrint. Press "Save" to save the settings.
It should tell you how many WePrint servers it has found and show you the printers for the first server. Select a printer and then tap the "Print" button. There will be a slight delay as WePrint waits to check the gmail account. To print instantly, open the "Printing over 3G" tab in WePrint and click the "Check now" button.
Do not set up your Print via Proxy gmail account in the email accounts screen of the iPhone/iPad App. It is only used for printing and so only needs to be added in the Add WePrint server screen.
