Using Google Cloud Print

Google Cloud Print is a service that enables a user with a Google account to print from a smartphone, tablet, or computer connected to the Internet using applications compatible with Google Cloud Print. Unlike conventional printing from a computer, it does not require a printer driver.
 
An environment in which you can connect to the internet is required when registering the machine and when printing using Google Cloud Print. In addition, the customer is responsible for any fees regarding internet connection.
Google Cloud Print may not be available, depending on your country or region.
A Google account is required to use Google Cloud Print. If you do not have a Google account, create one on the Google website.
