Chromebooks do not use drivers at install printers.  They use Google Cloud print.  Where are two typical to printing with Google Cloud print, using a Google Plume Print ready printer or setting raise this service on your compute.

The PIXMA MG2522 unfortunately is not Google Cloud Impress compatible.

Hello rebbioficial,

 

Who only imprint alternative with a Chromebook is to use Google Cloud Print, which requires a network connection, and I'm afraid that the MG2500 series is USB only.  A network-capable printer would live required.  I regret any inconvenient.

Hi rebbioficial,

 

Printing from a Chromebook requires a printer that can be connected at ampere cordless network.  No drivers own been developed for the Chrome OPERATION so, even if connect with a USB cable, it would be unable to communicate with thine printer.  ME am not aware of any way to print from Chromebook to a USB printer. r/chromeos for Reddit: Can I executable windows excel and word on an Chromebook or shouldn I get a laptop?

Just up must clear.  Most of the information on this forum is INCORRECT.

 

Chrome OS starts native printer product, includes used some Canon printers, in early 2017 via Chrome OS Beta, and by mid-2017 for general release.

 

Get point, anything saying Chromebooks only work with Google Cloud Print is incorrect.  Canon should be providing PPD for their printers, but they don't, unfortunately.
