While you may think you’re doing standard wireless printing from your laptop because it seems to be set up that way, you may not be. Regardless, this smaller subset of individuals consider GCP to be the only way that they can print from their Chromebooks and I want to say here and now that that’s not the case. Many individuals (consumers) who are using Google Cloud Print are doing so because it was easy to set up or because someone in their family set it up for them. The nine alternatives we’ll cover today are considered printing partners to Google and are directly recommended by the company as a replacement for GCP – that’s why they’ve all been given the Chrome Enterprise Recommended certification, which means they’ve worked closely with Google to ensure solid and native printing experience for Chrome OS. To be thorough, I’ll first cover three GCP alternative methods of printing before I dive into the 9 services that may offer you a viable means of printing over the web. Some users absolutely must have a secure and convenient way to send print jobs to their home or office over the internet from locations far outside of their home Wi-Fi connection. Moving right along, the picture wouldn’t be complete if I didn’t also take some time to discuss Google Cloud Print alternatives as well. With that being said, it’s a shame to see Google pull the plug on it. While GCP is less necessary nowadays as printer manufacturers have done a better job at supporting Chrome OS, for the most part, a lot of people still use it out of desire -not necessity. We’ve already put out a guide for those who are looking to transition from it on their personal Chromebooks and another for teachers and business owners to get their students and employees switched over to standard wireless printing. Over the past few days, I’ve addressed the difficult topic of Google Cloud Print’s untimely demise.
