According to Google’s plan, Google Cloud Print Service will stop supporting on January 1, 2021. The service was originally a printer sharing service provided by Google for some users.
At first, ChromeOS did not support traditional printers, which made it necessary for Google to provide printers for these users in some way.
So the cloud printing service came into being, the service can connect to traditional printers and then allow users to submit content, which can help users complete printing.
The service has indeed provided effective assistance to many users over the years, but with the development of technology, the number of users of Google Cloud Print service is also getting lower and lower.
Google has decided to completely stop supporting it. After all, ChromeOS can now support various traditional printers. Google said that the service will be completely suspended from the beginning of next year. After the service is stopped, all associated accounts will be automatically unbound and no data will be retained.
The company emphasized that no matter what operating system users are running, they no longer support cloud printing services. Google recommends that users look for a printer compatible with the platform.
For now, mainstream printers have fully supported various operating systems and even cloud printing, and users can connect to the cloud through apps to print content.
This also does not need to transfer through Google because some manufacturers have already provided similar functions, so the suspension will not have too much negative impact on users.
