#SHARING A GOOGLE CLOUD PRINTER INSTALL#
Sometimes, in order to activate the printer correctly, I had to disconnect all devices from a particular account first (and any other accounts the printer was connected to), then reconnect the printer I want to use.Īnother possible cause is that you have a corrupted install of Google Chrome. I had to delete the printer from both accounts, then set up the printer connection again from chrome://devices/. For whatever reason, Chrome doesn't like this. I recently had the same issue you are describing because I had registered the same printer in multiple accounts. Check your task manager -> startup to see if launching Chrome on startup is disabled. If you turned off the Chrome launch on startup, you may also run into this issue. If you shut down chrome and it doesn't continue to run in the background (on the printer host computer), your printer will go offline. There is a setting in advanced -> system -> continue running background apps when Chrome is closed, and this service must be running for Google cloud print to work correctly. One thing that will cause your issue to happen is if Google Chrome is closed. None of these things require me to redo my registration, but your mileage may vary.
Harrymc's response outlines issues such as the computer going to sleep and IP address changes (the latter doesn't affect my cloud printers because I have DHCP set up on my network, like most home users), and printer power cycling. I will walk you through a whole bunch of troubleshooting steps because I don't have enough information to narrow down your specific issue. There are several possible reasons this could be happening.
