Steve, to print from an iPad or iPhone (or iPod Touch) wirelessly, the only way I'm aware of doing so is through an Airprint enabled printer. It won't work with any network attached printer. I got an HP Laserjet P1102w laser printer that is Airprint enabled, and (once you set up HP's little embedded server in the printer) it works with any iDevice every time.
See me for details [
