Can I use Apple AirPrint on an HP LaserJet CP1525nw by doing a firmware upgrade?

The Firmware Date on the Laserjet is 20100430

Yes, your printer is AirPrint enabled:

Unfortunately, I performed all the steps you had suggested, including rebooting my printer and rebooting my ipad.  We get the message "No AirPrint Printers Found" on my iPad.  The driver upgrade completed without incident and a test page was printed from my MacBook Pro, from which I performed the Upgrade. The IMPORTANT part of my printing involves my iPad and iPhone which requires AirPrint.  A Wireless Network test report indicates evrything Passes or is Excellent.  Could the Authentication Type (wpa-psk) or Encription ((tkip+aes) be a problem?.  Any further assistance would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!  I just purchased the new iPad Pro with Keyboard and need basic printing to include documents, email, and  #10 basic size envelopes.  Thanks Very Much!

Also, on the Configuration Report, for the LaserJet Pro CP1525nw, which was run after the driver update, the Firmware Date:  20100430.  I tried EVERYTHING to get a Firmware Updated, but the documentation indicates that if no firmware update is presented as a result of the hyperlink provided here, that the Firmware is uptodate.  ALL documentation indicates that this model printer is AirPrint ENABLED!  ??

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!  That solved  my Problem.  The only open issue is that as I completed my Web Services Setup, I received the message "Connection Error".  AirPrint works fine, though!  Congratulations!
