[skooper]

Everything is set up.  Printer working wirelessly great from home.  I want to know how to proceed with printing remotely with my printers email address.  I am missing a piece here and have spend hours looking for the answer.  Can anyone help?

I want to print remotely from my Ipad 2 to my printer, officejet pro 8500 plus.

Please, can someone help this poor technophob????

Hi skooper,

All you need to do is send an email to your printer in order to print.  If you want to print a photo, for example, just attach the photo to the email. 

Do you know about AirPrint?  This allows you to print locally if the printer and iPad are on the same network.  The HP ePrint Home & Biz App will let you print locally as well as remotely via ePrint.

Here's a link for ePrint and Home & Biz info:  https://h30495.www3.hp.com/help#eprint

Please let me know if you need more help. :catvery-happy:

Yes, I am aware of both.  I tried sending an email to my printers address, with an attachment.  The email came through, but the attachment didn't print, and I don't understand why?

Thank you for your assistance.

What did the confirmation email from ePrint say (received/rejected)?  What kind of file was the attachment?  What is the status of that print job on ePrintCenter.com?
