What AirPrint printers are should be familiar to most Sir Apfelot readers, but I would like to explain it briefly for the others:
An AirPrint printer is a printer that supports the AirPrint protocol developed by Apple, which allows printing from Mac, iPad and iPhone without driver installation.
If you want to find out more detailed information about the AirPort protocol, you can read this article "What is AirPrint?“ look in.
List of airprint-compatible printers at Apple
Apple itself maintains a very extensive List, in which you can see all AirPrint printers from various manufacturers listed. This list is great if you want to get completely confused, because apart from the manufacturer name and the model designation, there is no further information, which in my opinion makes the list pretty worthless if you want to buy an AirPrint printer.
That's why I decided to create my own list of AirPrint printers and to break them down according to different printing techniques and properties. I then list three printers for each of these options. I think that gives you a better collection of printers if you're looking for a new machine.
There are now hundreds of AirPrint printers, but choosing the right one from Apple's list is almost impossible (Photo: tookapic/Pixabay).
Laser or inkjet printer?
One fundamental thing is deciding whether to go for a laser printer or a inkjet decides. In order to help you here, I will briefly list my opinion and experiences on the two types of printers.
- In my opinion, inkjet printers are better suited for photos because they offer a better print image with color gradients.
- Anyone who works a lot with multicolored, flat graphics should be better off with a color laser printer.
- My inkjet printers (different models from Brother and HP) always partially dried up after a few weeks of non-use, so that the printed image changed and there were lines in the photos that weren't there before. Cleaning the print head sometimes helped, but it always costs a lot of ink and nerves if it still doesn't work afterwards.
- Those who print a lot of text are usually best served with a monochrome laser printer, as the printing costs are low. If you do want to print photos, you can always use a dedicated photo printer like the canon selphy to buy.
Black and white laser printer with AirPrint
Here you will find laser printers that only print in black and white but are equipped with AirPrint. These are usually the best choice if you only want to print monochrome text and want to keep the consumption costs low.

Black and white laser printer with duplex and AirPrint
The duplex function makes it possible to print on the front and back of the sheets at the same time in a print job - in one go, without having to turn any sheets back and forth and reinsert them. For people who like to print manuals or multi-page manuscripts, this is a handy feature.
Incidentally, the “d” in the model name of the HP printers means that the printer is capable of duplexing. And the HP+ is optional and does not require an account. So you can use the printer without restrictions.

Color laser printer with duplex and AirPrint
In my opinion, the color lasers are a good choice for people who want to print business documents and graphics in colour, but fewer photos. All of the printers listed here can also do duplex printing. The use of toner also prevents a print head from drying out and it doesn't damage the printer if you don't send a print job for a few months.

I have had the Brother DCP-9022CDW, color laser, multifunction with duplex for a number of years. I'm very happy with that.
