Getting a HP MFP to AirPrint? (lemmy.world)

I'm trying to get an iPhone to see a HP MFP via AirPrint.

The printer has wireless installed and can accept a print from an Android phone, it can also accept a print from said Android device via WiFi-Direct.

What do you have to configure, all I can find is a bunch of priority settings that I don't quite understand, like lpd auto & lpd raw.

Or us it more a networking issue (yes the two machines are on the same network)

Anybody have any clue why our E77830 doesn't show up on an iDevice?

If you can go to the printer’s web management page, make sure bonjour is enabled in the network settings

Yes, I have access to the EWS & Bonjour was already enabled.

If bonjour is enabled and you are on the same subnet, the printer should show up in the printer find/select option from the app you are printing from. Can you access the ews from the iPhone? Try to disable the bonjour function and re-enable it. I know these suggestions sound stupid but sometimes it’s the stimulus things that lead you to an answer.
