Quoting the classic, we can say that “nothing can last forever.” This also applies, and perhaps even primarily, to the services offered by the giants of the technology-related industry. This is perfectly illustrated by the history of the Adobe Flash plug-in, which has been extinguished relatively recently. Another solution used in web browsers, which we will soon say goodbye to, is Google Cloud Print. It’s a cloud printing support tool that, although it is a decade old, has yet to come out of its beta phase. Today we know that it will never be called the final product. The company will disable access to Google Cloud Print before January 1 2021. How to prepare for it?

At the end of the year, Google will terminate its Cloud Print cloud printing service, which has accompanied users of Google Chrome and Chrome OS computers for the past decade.

Chrome OS has been extremely limited for years, preventing users from conveniently using printers. This is a real problem that Google solved in 2010 by providing the Cloud Print service. Many users used this tool as the default, but in 2017, the Mountain View giant attempted to add printer support to this platform. So the service ceased to matter and we soon learned that the company was planning to expire it. However, the deadline was distant, while the time is passing and the date is approaching inevitably.

Google Cloud Print will be finally retired on January 1 2021. Then users will lose access to it. It is worth preparing for this in advance and choosing another solution as a default. By the way, I will remember the tool itself warmly, as it allowed for convenient printing from any device connected to the network. No installation, no unnecessary fiddling. Oh, the perfect method for the average Kowalski. Considering the intensity with which Google juggles its services, this whole thing shouldn’t surprise anyone.
