I deleted printer drivers to save space on my Air, but then after I couldn't find any of my colleges library printers on the wireless. I Googled, couldn't find anything, I went to help desk and they couldn't help and there is no Apple Store in my city. So the best I could do was buy a USB driver, and when I want to print I book a desktop computer in the library, transfer the files I want onto the USB drive, and print off the desktop. I got sick of this after a few months and just bought a printer, but that ran out of ink.
So I just really want to get the wireless printing ability back, I must have wasted hundreds of hours waiting for a desktop over this past year just to print. I'm just about ready to buy a new Air actually, in order to get printing ability back, but that would mean making huge sacrifices in other areas of my life. So is there any way to get the ability to "see" the library printers again and print to them, or is it too late now? I thought this would be an easy problem to fix months ago, but no one actually knows how to fix this and I can't even get a single Google result of someone else having the same problem, my Google searches for this problem are getting so specific that I'm getting no results. For whatever reason, the printers just don't show up when I go to print, it doesn't give me the option to redownload the drivers because it doesn't even detect the printers. The drivers never come over system update either.
It's getting to be a big problem, it takes a few hours to book a computer and get a chance to print so I often just put it off and I can't print off things at the last minute for assignments or tutorials. It's just a massive headache, just another thing that just doesn't work.
