    BLESS YOU HEWIE!!! I had absolutely no idea Google chrome was going to do this. Luckily I was able to catch this whole fiasco before school started for me or else I would’ve had a meltdown. Again thank you so much for making this video. It really did SAVE ME!!

    Bought a USB cable for my Canon G3200. The printer is detected on my chromebook but no drivers found.
    I try different drivers similar but nothing prints out !!! Any Ideas? Will it work on a router ?

    Hewie, you are a PRINCE!!! You kept me from having a heart attack. FINALLY got my two Brother printers working with my ASUS chromebook, as a result of your fine instructions. I followed your directions step by step and YAAAAAYYY. No one else had the solution following google cloudprint departure. THANK YOU MIGHTILY!

    My brother gave me a a Chromebook, last month, I went to go buy a Canon PIXMA 2522and the Chromebook won't recognize, the printer, what do I do.. it's. Not a wireless printer... USB cord. I've tried everything.. nothing works..

    • @hewiep

      I did some research for you and from Canon's Tech Support page, "Since Google has discontinued Cloud Print, you would need to connect the printer to a Windows or Mac computer. There is no driver or software that can be installed on a Chromebook." So, it appears that it will not work.

    We were hopeful, created our test printer (with destination) and a piece of paper came out of printer but nothing was "typed" on page. Any one have any idea why nothing appears? Martha

    I think my Chromebook and my Canon Pixma 452 are very old . My IP address is listed as : MAC address and it is numbers and letters separated by semi-colons. I think the Chromebook doesn't accept the MAC address. Since then I've been trying to connect it with an A - B cord but even that doesn't work. I'm at my wit's end. I don't even know what to buy to be able to print. It really limits what I can do with my Chromebook without being able to print.

    • @hewiep
      @hewiep  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Your IP address will be 4 sets of numbers each separated by a period. For instance :
      192.168.254.21

      Take a look at these 2 articles. epson.com/Support/wa00901 and www.wikihow.com/Add-a-Printer-to-Google-Chromebook . Check the support site of your Chomebook manufacturer. Also just Google "Chromebook [model number] to Canon Pixma 452" and see what results you get. Be careful. there are a lot of bad people who may ask to sign into a site or download something to get answers. Skip those.

    Will this work with a Dymo thermal printer?

    • @hewiep
      @hewiep  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I did some checking. While Dymo has an Android app, and my Chromebook does not say that it isn't compatible (intentional double negative), the app has not been updated since 2017 and the reviews say that it doesn't work. If you already own a Dymo Label printer, it should not hurt to try the app, but don't go out & buy either expecting it to work.
