2024-10-19 | 刘先森 | en | This extension does not follow the best practices for Chrome extensions and may soon no longer be supported. Can be used, hope to update. | |
2024-08-05 | Christian Rupp | en | IPP Everywhere for chromebooks, supporting different Page sizes. Basically the only option I found for that. Also more reliable for bringing custom options to Mac and Windows. | |
2023-08-10 | Richard Lewis | It's a little bit fiddly to set up but this extension allowed me to print to a Samsung M2678 multifunction printer which I'd found impossible to use except from Android. You need to select Unirast as the protocol and the IPP address is http://x.x.x.x/ipp/print where x.x.x.x is the printer's IP address. | ||

2022-07-13 | Geri Paley | It says it should be compatible with my Canon MX472, but when I try printing it says it was successful, but nothing prints. | ||

2022-02-11 | Eric Bersagel | Have a Brother HL_L8350CDW which is not supported on Chromebook since Cloud Print cancelled. Been using other driver only supported via USB: worked poorly or not at all. This extension was dead easy to set up and so far runs great. (Also found and use the WIFI Printer App for Chromebooks: note, this easily told me printers IP address for using the extension.) Also like that this appears to be active per last update; the Printer App has not had update in quite a while so worry about ongoing support. I no longer HATE my Brother printer. | ||
