Setting Up Google Cloud Print

Printing from Your Chromebook!!!

This is an issue many of us and our students have struggled with, so I am finally posting a video with directions. Since my Google Cloud Print was already set up, I had to find a way to show everyone how to start at the beginning, which was largely the reason it took a while to create this post!

Basically, you can print from your Chromebook to any printer you can access from a desktop computer. The key is to make sure that you are logged in via Google Chrome on the desktop as well as the Chromebook. As long as that is the case, you should easily be able to choose which printer you want to use. Click on the link below to see the video.




***Remember, however, to double check where your document believes it will print and adjust accordingly. Earlier in the year, I stared at my classroom printer in bewilderment only to realize that the document was trying to print to my home computer. By the way, when I logged on to my home computer later that evening, the document printed there! ***
