Apple annuncia l’uscita di AirPrint a novembre
15 Set
Assieme all’annuncio del rilascio della prima Beta del nuovo iOS 4.2, Apple ha oggi annunciato che il prossimo novembre verrà lanciato AirPrint, il nuovo sistema di stampa wireless per iPhone, iPod Touch e iPad.
Il nuovo sistema AirPrint permette agli utenti di iPhone, iPad e iPod Touch di stampare documenti a partire dal proprio dispositivo connettendosi senza fili ad una stampante. HP sarà la prima azienda a rendere i propri prodotti compatibili con questo innovativo sistema di stampa.
Phil Schiller di Apple, ha inoltre affermato che AirPrint non richiederà alcun driver né configurazioni di alcun tipo. Non sarà necessario nemmeno un’applicazione specifica: vi basterà eseguire un tap sulla funzione print per stampare le vostre foto ed i vostri documenti. AirPrint rintraccia infatti in modo automatico le stampanti sulla rete Wi-Fi locale ed invia, in modo del tutto diretto, i dati alla stampante.

15 Set
Apple issued a press release (and updated iOS 4.2 page)ahead of the iOS 4.2 beta that just hit. In it, they detail the new AirPrint standard and its ability to work with HP ePrint printers. To confuse matters slightly, HP offers an iPrint iOS app (pictured below) that does iOS printing.
“AirPrint is Apple’s powerful new printing architecture that matches the simplicity of iOS—no set up, no configuration, no printer drivers and no software to download,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing. “iPad, iPhone and iPod touch users can simply tap to print their documents or photos wirelessly to an HP ePrint printer or to a printer shared on a Mac or PC.”
“We’re pleased to work with Apple to bring Apple’s AirPrint to our fall lineup of ePrint printers in time for the holiday shopping season,” said Vyomesh Joshi, HP executive vice president, Imaging and Printing Group. “Making it easy for our customers to print anytime, anywhere, is a key priority for HP. iPad, iPhone and iPod touch customers are going to love how easy it is to print using our new range of ePrint printers, creating high-quality printed pages in an instant.”
