Solution
You can use your Canon printer for AirPrint, following the procedures explained below.
AirPrint can use a local wireless LAN to print email, photos, web pages, and other documents from iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch directly to your printer.
Check the devices and their connection environment for AirPrint.
(A) Access point (IEEE802.11b/g/n)
As a relay device for data communication between the Internet and your network devices at home (such as an Apple device and printer), an access point is required.
(B) Apple device (iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch) to use a printer
The Apple device (iOS 4.2 or later iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch) to use a printer needs to be connected to the access point.
(C) Canon printer
Your Canon printer and Apple device (iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch) be on the same wireless LAN.
When the above is confirmed, you are ready to use AirPrint.
CAUTION

For access point settings and functions, refer to the instruction manuals of the access point, or contact the manufacturer of the access point.
For Apple device (iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch) settings, refer to the instruction manuals of that Apple device, or contact Apple.
