How to View and Manage Print Jobs on Chromebook

Google has added a new print management app to Chrome OS. I do not have a printer connected to my Chromebook. However, in this article, I will show you how to access the print management app.

Add New Printer

To add a new printer to your Chromebook:

1. Open the Settings app.
2. Click and expand Advanced.
3. Under Printing, click Printers.
4. Click the Printer icon against Add Printer.
5. Enter your printer’s details. If you have a print server, click the Print Server icon to add the address.
6. Click Add to save the new printer.

Now that you have added a new printer to your Chromebook, here is how to access your open print jobs to manage them.

Chromebook Print Jobs App

To view print jobs on your Chromebook:

1. Open the Settings app.
2. Click and expand Advanced.
3. Under Printing, click Print Jobs.
4. The Print Jobs window is displayed.

From the Print Jobs app you can:

• View pending print jobs.
• View the file name, printer name, date, and status of print jobs.
• Clear all history

Pin Print Jobs App

If you need to open the Print Jobs app very often, you can pin it to the taskbar. To do this, right-click the Print Job app’s icon and choose Pin.

Hope you found this tutorial useful. I’ll have to find a Chromebook test this. If you think I missed something, do let me know in the comments so that I can update this article.
