Google Cloud Print - what can the service do?

Many printers already support wireless printing. But you can often print over the Internet as well. That's where Google Cloud Print comes in. The service lets you print wirelessly from your tablet, PC or smartphone from anywhere. Cloud Print is also shareable, so your family can share the service.

2. Open Chrome and sign in with your Google account.
3. Turn on the printer.
4. Go to Chrome settings by clicking on the three small dots in the top right corner and then click "Settings".
5. Now in the browser, click on the dash icon in the top left corner.
6. Now select "Print" and then "Google Cloud Print".
7. Click on "Manage Cloud Print Devices" and then "New Devices".
