Saved my day! Now I can print to Xerox Phaser 3020. Setup using IPP and Unirast protocol.

This extension does not follow the best practices for Chrome extensions and may soon no longer be supported. Can be used, hope to update.

It's a little bit fiddly to set up but this extension allowed me to print to a Samsung M2678 multifunction printer which I'd found impossible to use except from Android. You need to select Unirast as the protocol and the IPP address is http://x.x.x.x/ipp/print where x.x.x.x is the printer's IP address.

Works perfectly as a workaround for my brother MFC-L2710DW on my steam deck!

It says it should be compatible with my Canon MX472, but when I try printing it says it was successful, but nothing prints.

Have a Brother HL_L8350CDW which is not supported on Chromebook since Cloud Print cancelled. Been using other driver only supported via USB: worked poorly or not at all. This extension was dead easy to set up and so far runs great. (Also found and use the WIFI Printer App for Chromebooks: note, this easily told me printers IP address for using the extension.) Also like that this appears to be active per last update; the Printer App has not had update in quite a while so worry about ongoing support. I no longer HATE my Brother printer.

Great extension! Provides the solution for the elimination of cloud print. Thanks so much.

This app works fine. I'm having some tech issues with some really advanced stuff. The basics of the app work fine. Always great contact with the dev-team, that's why I am giving the dev's a 5 star review! You shouldn't rate this app if you don't know what it is capable of. The 1-star reviews aren't justified.

One of the best print management solutions for organizations dependent on G-Suite and Chromebooks. Extension works well with some caveats. Looked at Papercut as well as some other options when Google announced the end to Google Cloud Print but most of them were too expensive for our non-profit. Directprint was extremely affordable given the features it offered (IPP links are auto added for all of our various printers without having to sort through documentation to find it, basic print job reports for all of our locations pooled by Org unit, toner level reporting, etc). The extension shows up as a Chrome webapp and isn't accessible from the extensions bar without navigating to manage extensions -> and "View in Web Store". On chromebooks though you can have the app pinned to user's taskbars. I would recommend this extension and service to any organization running lean or heavily invested in chromebooks with G Suite mgmt.

Just doesn't work.

It didn't work for me, I believe it works for others, so I rate it right in the middle.

THANK YOU! My chromebook used to print to my printer attached to Raspberry Pi, latest chromeOS updates broke this. Chromebook still saw the printer, looked like it sent the print job to the printer, but nothing came out. This extension fixed all of this in seconds.

Works! That's what matters. If you know your IP address, that's all you need. I noticed that even if you get a Fail message when you do the "i" test, the printer still prints. Thank you!!!!

Developer doesn't seem to respond or even acknowledge questions or problems...

Gentoo Linux, HP 1320n - worked!

Since Google is discontinuing Cloud Print at the end of the year I was looking for other chromebook printing solutions for my Brother HL-L2380DW. This extension works flawlessly. Had I known, I would have been using this from the start instead of dealing with buggy Google Cloud Print.

ça marche super et c'est bien mieux que Google Cloud Print ! Bravo

downloaded from store. followed directions. It recognized my Canon TS3122 and saved it to printers in advanced settings. I tried to print , pop up came up I clicked on pop up .The only thing I had to do was put TS3100 in the name box. and put printers IP address in Ipp box. I got that from the printer by pressing the Info button 2 or 3 times . Printer printed out all info about itself including ip address.10.0.0.221 click save and print. This is the first and only C Book I ever got printing. This is a fantastic help. It says 30 day trial, if its not too much I 'll keep it Thanks every one for your talent and hard work.

Does not work for what I needed

It doesn't support authentication, therefore you can only use it with local printers, not internet exposed printers with a username/password.

Sees the printer, configues fine....doesn't print. Nada....zero...zilch.

It would be nice if the printing order could be reversed!

So grateful to find this! I was able to add the extenstion to my parents' Chromebook and print to their Brother MFC430W printer within 5 minutes. A little bit of a learning curve using the extension and adjusting settings in the Chromebook, but no big deal. My parents are thrilled to be able to print directly from their Chromebook again! (Not sure why Chrome or Brother couldn't manage to do this for their customers!) Thank You!! :)

Works, sort of... I could print, but all print jobs came from the secondary tray, as 4x6 images. If I were printing photos, it would have been fine, but the job was configured as letter to print Google Docs business letters.

Once setup the product works with no issues.

Worked in minutes

It almost works.. Adding the local printer works nicely by auto detecting the correct model number of my brother MFC-J435W brother, and the test result is a PASS. Then trying to print a document actually seems to be sent out.. the print message from chrome show the doc as being printed, except physical printer did not receive or print anything. I wish this worked !

Does not work. Waste of time.

After learning that google cloud print would be discontinued, I spent way too much time trying to get my chromebook to print to my CUPS printer that was working with every other OS I tried. After giving up, I installed this extension, and it just worked.

Worked with Brother MFC-J425w but had to add manually and select unirast.

need better instructions

Will not work and keeps sending me to pay for use website.

I am somewhat confused. I have a Raspberry PI Print server running CUPS on Linux. I decided to take the challenge and tested with Chromium OS (note not Chrome OS), the open source version. Chromium automatically recognized the printers on the PI but I never was able to print not even selecting Generic PDF , nor Postscript drivers worked from Chromium . Then I installed this and wow thank you! I was then able to configure a printer on Chromium OS and complete a print job. Maybe some day Google will fiinally get some things right but I doubt that will me in my lifetime . If CUPS is integrated to Chrome OS then why is this even needed? Also Chrome needs a way to turn off auto detection of CUPS printers.

I gave it 4 starts, because it works great. Could not go to 5 stars, because I'm computer savvy. I know where to find the IP address and troubleshoot connectivity issues. For those that are not computer savvy, simply add the print app to your phone and you can easily locate the ip address in the setup. Good Luck! It's worth the small headache.

As a Google for Education Partner we have been looking for a solution to enable Teachers and pupils to print reliably from Chromebooks and also have options for cost saving policies like limiting the number of pages users are allowed to print. Setting up DirectPrint is quick and easy and the support we've received has been excellent. In a world where printing can be a massive pain in the neck DirectPrint allows us to confidently tell schools that printing from Chromebooks is not just possible but easy and cost effective. Highly recommended!

If you don't know IPP address you probably can get printer to tell you. On my machine, pushing stop/clear button for certain number of seconds gives much information. See instructions for your machine. I found addresses under "Network Configuration" category. Here are "IP Address," "SubNet Mask" and "Default Gateway." Manufacturer gives another "IP Address." You also may find "IPP Information" with "Printer URI" and other categories such as "Default Gateway," which involves similar numbers. The key for me was "IP Address" under "TCP/IPv4 Information." Using that number worked. worked OK until IPP changed. After getting new IP it worked; however, at first I used "Auto" successfully, then I changed to "raster" and it's OK. If you have a second printer I believe it is helpful or necessary to give it a different name.

love it thank you

Thank you for developing this extension! I have been pulling my hair out over my printer cutting off the top of everything (Google Doc, pdf, everything) that I send wirelessly from my Chromebook. I have been searching and searching for a solution and nothing worked until I found this extension. My only advice is to make the instructions for setting up your printer a little more user friendly. I managed to get the extension to work but I felt like the instructions were like reading a foreign language because I am not an IT professional. Having more photos in the instructions might help and or more user friendly instructions. From my printer, I could scroll through the menu settings and find the IP address (not the IPP address) and it only gave me a long string of numbers: 192.168.100.005 which I had to then think to add to "http://192.168.100.005:631/" I tried it and it worked! I am not sure others will think to do that. It would have been helpful if you would have said something like (with photos too): After you install the extension, 1)Click on the "Cupps Extension icon" on the top right corner of your screen 2) Select "Manage printers" 3) On the PRINT MANAGEMENT scroll down to "Add/edit printer" and enter: (a) Name: (whatever you want to call your printer) (b) IPP Address: http://***.***.***.***:631/ (***.***.***.*** = this is the "IP address" for your printer) For me I had to scroll through my printer menu. . .Network. . .WLAN. . .TCP/IP. . .IP Address. . . 192.168.100.005 (***.***.***.***) I hope that helps other people. THANK YOU!!! I am very grateful for this extension!!!!!!!!

I am excited that there is one application on the Chrome store that works at first try!! I print from Google disc to Canon MG 6440 on home wi-fi network.

directprint.io makes managing printing on chromebooks a breeze. You have the ability to push policies and allocate prints by user or device. Great reporting, granularity, integration with G Suite, and secure print! Highly Recommend.

fallowed along ok but still not connecting not sure if IP address is righthow do you get the printers IP

So much information out here and not enough solutions. Your system is the solution for novelists like me.

Thanks so much. Printing on a chromebook has been the bane of my existence for years, esp. envelopes. I've devoted countless hours to speaking very unkindly about anyone assoicated with chromebooks, computers and the universe in general, trying to print an envelope with my chromebook. You've taken care of that with "Number 10 " paper size.

doesnt work

took a while but its good

Worked for me straight out of the box with a Brother HL-4570CDW via IPP. Based on reading other reviews, I just made sure to enter the IP address with full http://x.x.x.x protocol.

Por fin pude usar mi chromebook para imprimir a través de wifi!!!

It is too small and too fast to be of help.

excellent

Works well although the one thing missing in the brief instructions is that the extension puts an icon in the menu bar and that's where you put the IPP address. Yes, OK, I'm probably just stupid but in case there are others faced with the same problem, that's where you set up your printer. After that it's pretty straightforward assuming you've found the IP address of your printer/CUPS server. Just put in a printer name and the appropriate IPP address eg mine is: http://192.168.1.96:631 You can delete the default "My printer".
