I've only been using Chrome OS for a week. I had already paired my HP OfficeJet Pro 9010 with my Android phone and my WIN 7 Pro PC. Turned on the printer and my Acer Spin 713. Typed CTRL + P and the printer and the Chromebook did the rest. Paired in under a minute. Prints faster than with my PC. Printing looks great! Another great video from Chrome Unboxed. Y'all are my single source for learning how to use this Chromebook and Chrome OS. Thanks! Happy and HEALTHY New Year!!! Stay Safe.

Chrome has come along way with setting up printers. The Cloud printing never really worked right. Every time I wanted to print I would have to re-register the printer. But a couple of years ago, connecting to a printer was pretty easy and always stayed connected. My Brother MFC-L2700DW which is about 4 years old works perfectly with my Chromebooks.

I used this HP app shown on the video to change the name of the printer.

I'm ready to return the printer to the store. I have 3 Windows devices that have no problem printing to it.

You're leaving out a couple of key issues with Chrome OS and the HP Smart app... first, it won't let you print any documents or spreadsheet... you need to convert these to PDF first. Also, you don't need your phone. The HP Smart Print app installs on your Chromebook as an Android app. Unfortunately, the ChromeOS HP Print Extension (which was far better) stopped working properly with the ChromeOS 86 update. It was better than the HP Smart app as it would print anything without having to convert to PDF first. Neither HP or Google seems to have any interest in fixing the issues that arose with the ChromeOS 86 update so for now it looks like the HP Smart option is the best option if you have an HP printer

Google's failure to properly address or even acknowledge printing issues will be the downfall of Chrome OS if they don't deal with it very soon. I have an HP which has been fine, with my Chromebook (although the Chrome OS 86 update messed it up for some models) but I hear about issues with Canon, Epson and several others. Why the rush to get rid of CloudPrint for all these other printers that seem to need it?

Plugged in usb-to-printer cable (Amazon $7), went to printer (search in settings on chrome book), and there it was. Not sure what effect my previous experiments had. Used HP Smart on iPhone to set up printer, and then it was at least seen by chrome book, but got message saying not supported. It’s possible just plugging in usb cable would do it. I suspect it’s a security issue which usb connection obviates. Also tried “hp print for chrome” which allowed recognition but not use.

Should be fine, as long as the ethernet and wi-fi are the same network, i.e. coming from the same router. I'm doing it the other way (Chromebook via ETH and the printer on wi-fi) and it works just fine. The tools/ apps/ drivers shouldn't go any deeper into the stack than layer 3 in my understanding so to the software ethernet and wi-fi should look the same.

How this neglects to mention printer requirements is deafening. This is not how real life works. You need to buy $$$, you need to spend more money for a newer modern late model printer and never a Canon for a chromebook to have a 50% chance of printing. This means that those with older, well maintained, high functioning wifi only printers, especially those with Canons, have to buy a another printer. And by the damn way, that stupid compatible printer list mostly only displays the series family numbers and not the actual model number. Why is that not important information? The bottom line is that those enticed to get a Chromebook due to the low price, which may seem like a bargain, need to be informed that you need to buy, you need to spend MORE money for a late model printer, even if you already have a great printer, if you plan on printing. Otherwise any sub $400 PC can print with no drama. It's just maddening what I have to go through just so I can freaking print on paper. I can't think of any other computer that requires this much pampering and catering to just so I can freaking print. Goodness.
