I have never used a chrome computer before so I might not be able to answer this question directly. Having said that, the question back to you would be, does the chrome computer work with any external USB wireless adapter? If the answer is yes, then I would assume that if the Chrome Computer can use an external USB drive that it would be able to use this one.

Chrome OS does not have support for hooking directly to a printer, however Google has a service called Cloud Print that allows you to set up a printer on another computer that your Chromebook can print to. The Cloud Print website provides clear and simple instructions on how to set everything up.

I used an HP printer with a USB connect. The computer found and loaded the drivers, no problem. I just had to go into the control panel and change the default printer.

It works for me. The printer was giving me problems before I upgraded my PC. I also have extensions attached to this parallel port. So I dont know if this makes a difference. I finally got tired of dealing with the old printer and got a laser printer for under 100. So I have both connected to the new computer.

That's a very good question, my guess is no, because I think you have to install drivers to make it work, but it might also depend on the printer? Might be worth some googling around

You can't plug a printer directly into a Chromebook, but you can print to a printer that is attached to a PC or to a HP e-print printer (for example) via Google Cloud Print as described in The Chrome Book (Fourth Edition): The Essential Guide to Cloud Computing with Google Chrome and the Chromebook

No. You just need a usb cable to connect your printer to the hub (male usb type A). This is the same cable that you would normally use to connect to your computer, but instead of wiring it to your computer, you wire it into one of the inputs of the hub. The hub has two usb type A cables coming out of it that go to the two computers that are sharing your devices.

Yes it will work. As long as your printer/computer has USB ports. I am using my own on my Lexmark printer and on my very old HP printer.

Hi D. Ambrose, If you have a wireless printer, you can connect it to it as you would any other wireless device and print. If it's not a wireless printer, then no. We hope this helps!

I was trying to use this to get an old piece of land surveying hardware to work and was unsuccessful. I can't say if it will work with your printer or not. I do not think my problem was related to the cable. It was a software interface issue.

Yes, after the necessary setup of identifying the IP address of the printer and connecting to your Chromebook or Google Chrome operating system on other computers.

This unit should work with any printer that has a USB connection. Each computer thinks it is is the only one connected to the printer. I would suggest pressing the desired switch for computer A or B before starting the print job because the computer has to know it has communication before it will send the print job. On occastion mine fails so I just cancel the print job, operate the switch back and forth to "re-establish" communication and I am good to go.

Yes - it will wifi connect your computer to any other wifi device on your network - including printers.

hi akshata, the cable should work for you, most printers accept a usb type " b" cable end, the other end of the cable, the type "a" end will plug into your computer usb port.

I don't have a Chromebook, so I can't answer for sure, but it would seem that it should. I used it with a Toshiba laptop with no problem.I don't believe the printer was wireless though. So as long as you can plug it into the Chromebook it should work fine.

I have an HP printer, & its works fine with its usb cable & software. I don't know about your printer, sorry.

I dont think that will work. It will serve you better to just connect the printer to one computer and setup a network for printer so that multiple computers on your network can print from it.
