Not having AirPrint for mobile devices is a loss.

I use a pi0w with my old USB Brother and it works just fine with airprint. I update it a couple times a year but other than that it's set and forget.

There are routers with AirPlay support and USB sockets!

It’s super easy to setup CUPS to do AirPrint nowadays. I have a small container on my Proxmox box that just runs CUPS and talks to the printer over the network.

I know that’s not accessible for the tech un-savvy, but it’s there for those of us that are.

This reply is perfect, with "its super easy to setup CUPS with Proxmox" and the username matches and everything. No notes.
