Just like on other operating systems, adding a printer to your Chromebook is also a breeze. Here's how you can do it in three simple steps.

Adding a printer to a Chromebook is easy. Just go to the settings menu, select Printing under Advanced options, and add your printer to your profile.
Make sure you are on the same Wi-Fi network as your printer if you want to connect wirelessly. For USB printers, just connect your Chromebook with a cable.
To start printing, open the Docs app, type your document, press Ctrl + P to open printer options, and click on the print button. Chromebook supports all major printer brands.
