Regardless, if you have a wireless printer that doesn’t consistently work with your Chromebook, this app is worth a try. Set up Make sure the client is connected to your organizations network. And depending on which printer you have, you might not need the app to be active when printing. One thing I have noticed is that the WiFi Printer Driver app needs to be actively running in order for me to print. Your results may vary based on the printer model you have, of course.īut in scanning through the app reviews, I see a wide range of success across different printer brands including HP, Canon, Epson, and Brother, to name a few. And it doesn’t require you to know the IP address of your local network printer, which saves some configuration time. Even so, I’ve still seen inconsistency when trying to print, especially after we replaced our older HP printer with a Brother model.Īfter some research, I found the WiFi Printer Driver Chrome Web App and since then, I haven’t had a single printer issue. Find your printer in the New Devices menu and click the Manage button next to it.
So last June, Google added a Chrome OS Native Printing feature for Chromebooks since not everyone has a Google Cloud Print capable device. Open the browser, type chrome://devices in the address bar, and press Enter.
Printing from a Chromebook hasn’t always been easy.
