Solutions
Having a Chromebook can be amazing. But it can also be stressful when some things weren’t made with your device or Google Cloud Print in mind. Fortunately, these printers are compatible not to mention speedy, secure, and use quality ink/toner. If we had to pick a favorite? We’d go for the Canon Office MAXIFY IB4120 Printer due to its personal features, as well as it being able to connect to multiple devices at once.
The HP Envy 5055 printer is also a great deal. It allows you to print from tons of different cloud services, including Google and more, and you can even automatically re-order ink using an HP Instant Ink subscription so you never run out.
Finally, if you take a lot of photos and want to print out a digital memory or two, the Canon TS9120 is perfect. We love both the quality and speediness when it comes to printing out our pictures and think you will, too.
