Hey, thanks for stopping in. I have on my desk right now:
1. Verizon Wireless Mobile 4G LTE Hotspot.
2. Brother HL-2270DW wireless printer. Specs for that HERE
3. Apple Macbook (Older Running Lion I believe)
4. Asus Chromebook
5. Samsung Chromebook.
The person who brought all of this in wishes to print wireless with all three of her devices. I have been working on this for a few days now. I have the mac hooked up and printing wirelessly through her network, which is a Verizon Wireless Mobile 4G LTE hotspot, simply enough. Chromebooks however; do not natively support this printer and this printer does not support cloud print.
I have been trying to devise a work around but can't seem to get the chrome books to work with cloud print. I would just like to get some opinions on how they would set this up, and any advice or tips to make this a reliable printing network whenever the hot spot is turned on.
P.S. Personally I detest the incompatibility of these chromebooks and were it me I would have my printer hooked up to a dedicated PC and just have all other devices print via the network through it. But given that they do not even own a PC that is not an option.
