In the age of the Cloud it makes sense getting rid of localized set-ups and moving on to the Cloud. Time to quickly make your local Printer too as a Cloud Printer.
If you have a Printer connected to your Home / Office PC and want to share with your group virtually over the Net why not use Google's Cloud Print service. Sharing of your Printer can be due to a variety of reasons and I will leave it on you to be creative in that direction. At the time of writing this article the Google Cloud Print service is still in BETA stage.
The process of making your Printer a Google Cloud Printer is a 2 step process -
1. Registering your Printer with Google Cloud Print. Rather than duplicating the contents I will re point to Google's help on this matter. Please click here to learn.
2. Installing the local Cloud Printer in the remote PC from where you wish to Print. The best part is that Google has included all possible Operating Systems and other Java-based systems from where you can Print. Please click here for the drivers.
Once the Google Cloud Print driver is installed and you issue a Print command from your system, you get the option of selecting "Google Cloud Printer" in the Printers list and when you click the same, the Google Cloud Printer provides you with a list of Cloud Printers added to your Google account where you can Print. You can even share your Cloud Printer with other Google users.
If you have an Internet Cafe you may also provide the facility to users to Print files remotely rather than carrying their USB drives.
Wooow.....just so easy to make your Standalone Printer a Google Cloud Printer!
