The days of printer frustrations are slowly but surely becoming a thing of the past. As the cloud has been growing and developing the cloud printing industry has been growing right alongside. Services such as Google's Cloud Print, Ezeep and UniPrint are leading the way and making printing easier than ever.
A new way to print
A cloud printer does not need to be connected to a PC or to a print driver in order to print, what an amazing concept. Instead the printer is registered with the cloud print service and just waits for jobs to be sent to it. This means that you can now print from absolutely anywhere. Additionally you can now print with any device, have a pdf on your phone that needs printing? Not a problem, an excel sheet on your tablet? Print away.
Use any printer, anytime, anyhwere
Virtually any printer can be used as a cloud printer, all it requires is a small piece of software to be installed on your computer. This software sends print jobs to a connector such as Google Cloud Print, the connector then sends the job to the printer through the native printer software. One minor downside is that you do have to be online in order to print, but as long as you have internet access you can print from anywhere in the world.
