I am not a iPad guy but helping the church. They have an application that prints from the iPad to the Brother label printer via WIFI. The printer shows up on the Unifi display as an attached device.
The application does not allow me to specify the IP address rather it finds and displays the various printers by model number.
The problem they have had in the past (they have two iPads and two label printers). The problem they have had in the past was both iPads printing to same label printer.
I am hoping that there is not unexplained magic happening where the application switches to WIFI direct mode to send data to the printer. But would any printer be capable of doing WIFI direct mode and infrastructure mode without having to change settings on the printer?
I can easily set static addresses for the printer with Unifi.
I need to see if I can get an email for the company that supports the application.
