Chrome OS does not have support for hooking directly to a printer, however Google has a service called Cloud Print that allows you to set up a printer on another computer that your Chromebook can print to. The Cloud Print website provides clear and simple instructions on how to set everything up.

Yes, but you need to search for a printer app on chromeweb that corresponds to your printer brand.

You have to set up Google Cloud Print. After that you can print from almost anything. Requires a printer that is Cloud ready or already connected to a Windows or Mac. The Windows or Mac PC must have Google Chrome and Chrome signed in to your Google Account. Go to Chrome Menu then Show Advanced Settings. Scroll down to Add Printers.

Printing is done via the cloud. You'll have to set up a printer on the cloud. Google has instruction for working with cloud printing.

The only difference between a Chromebook Chrubuntu and a standard Ubuntu installation is how the bootloading process works. Once you are in Ubuntu, it is the same as any other Ubuntu. I would suggest that you Google "Ubuntu" and the model number of your printer to see the Ubuntu documentation. I have never had problems with Ubuntu and HP printers, but have no experience with other printer brands. To be honest, since I hacked the Chromebook and set up Ubuntu, I have not used the Chrome operating system.

For our business, DiscountPerfumes (which is also a seller of authentic fragrances on Amazon), we tried to attach a printer directly, but could not. However, we are able to print via the cloud with Google-Cloud Print and that works great!

I tried every last piece of advice, and unfortunately, Ryan's answer did not work for me. We have 3 chromebooks, not a single one can find the printer. I'm so angry, I would have never bought this printer had I known how frustrating this process would be!!!

I wasn't able to print due to the fact that Lantronix is not compatible with Kodak printers. If you have the another brand of printer (you can google printers that are compatible with Lantronix) you can print from android, tablets and I would assume from Chromebooks.

You cannot load programs into a Chromebook. It comes with the entire suite of Google office-like apps free.

Yes; go to www.google.com/cloudprint/learn/printers.html to see a list. Likewise if you don't want to replace your current one, go here https://support.google.com/cloudprint/answer/1686197?rd=1. These two URLs should be of service to you; please don't replace your current printer. You can 'have your Chromebook cake' and eat it too. I've proven it!!!

In theory, yes you can. It operates on a wireless 802.11 connection. Two caveats: 1) some people have reported problems in making wireless connections with this and other HP printers; and 2) you have to setup the wireless connection initially through the USB port, i.e., it has to be connected to your computer to setup the wireless connection.

no you can not because the printer needs to be connected to a conputadora by either usb or serial port ...

Yes. The computer has plenty of USB ports, which is how I connect my printer.

I am not familiar with the chrome book but it works great with my HP laptop.

Yes. Using the navigation buttons on the printer. You can connect to your network and then start printing. You may have to connect to your computer with the USB cord for the initial setup.

Yes and no, you can connect to a cloud ready computer, but to connect to a normal printer you need a wifi connection from a normal conputer, you sign in to cloud print and add that printer

I have a network printer. The Chromebox prints to it perfectly. I haven't connected a USB printer to it. My network printer is an HP but I would think any network printer would work.

Printers are not directly connected to ChromeOS computers. If your HP supports HP ePrint then it can be connected via Google Cloud Print otherwise you must have a traditional computer to run the printer and share it via Cloud Print.

I don't have a Chromebook, so I can't answer for sure, but it would seem that it should. I used it with a Toshiba laptop with no problem.I don't believe the printer was wireless though. So as long as you can plug it into the Chromebook it should work fine.

You should be able to. Read this: https://support.google.com/docs/answer/140784https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/1056325?hl=en

Presumably your printer/scanner has a USB portal.In which case I'm quite sure it's doable but I wouldn't know exactly how. But many folks could know.

Yes, you can. From the printer touchscreen display you can select a memory device such as a flash drive, or the computer, or the cloud. From the Epson scan utility on your computer you can select a USB drive if it's already connected to your computer.
