Can I connect a printer via USB port?

You can connect but won't be able to print because you can't put the printer driver/software on the Chromebook. Options include buying a Chrome Printer, or what I do is email myself the document and then print from my cellphone using an app called PrinterShare.

If you have a wireless printer (HP ePrint or Canon Pixma ) on your network, you can add it to chrome cloud print in the chrome browser and print that way.

you need to print from Google Cloud Print. I have an HP Officejet 6500A e-All-in-One Printer series - E710 and I send my documents to H-p eprint and print from the cloud. Works great

Yes, of course. Any USB printer will connect with any computer nowadays that has USB ports.

I figure out you can connect your printer only via Bluetooth or intranet or using adapters. It has only USB, HDMI, Ethernet & headphones INs

I am going to say yes a centronics cable right? this will connect the usb port to the cable you may need the printer driver but windows should handle that

I don't remember seeing a USB port on the printer itself but you since you can control the scanner through your laptop or desktop, you can select select your USB drive to store your scanned image.

There is a USB port in the rear that can be used to connect the printer directly instead of using wireless

No. This is a wired printer. You must have a USB printer cable in order to connect this machine to your computer.

No, you can use the printer either with the USB port or wireless. Which ever is easier for you. Jack F

Yes. The computer has plenty of USB ports, which is how I connect my printer.

The software you use should not be an issue. As long as your computer has a USB port, the printer should work nicely.

You can connect a desktop computer. But buy a different printer, this one sucks.

You can connect directly to computer with USB. But going WI -FI is better. You can print from smart phone or tablet if you use WI - FI.

I print from via usb connection all the time with my laptop, no problem. Obviously, you have to install the driver like any printer or usb device.

Yes. Mine is connected to my computer by way of a standard USB cable, which is provided when you order the printer. If it prints wirelessly, I don't use it that way. Good luck.

Yep, via USB. Not that I'm endorsing this printer. It sucks ink, and customer service for the issues I've had was a pain in the neck.

Sue, You are incorrect. The printer can print USB, but like most printers for the last decade it does not include a USB cable (about $3 on Amazon if you can't find one at your house). Printing by USB is identical to printing wireless and you are not required to email the documents. It is just a different way of connecting the printer. Of course, a wireless connection also allows multiple computers to send print jobs at once. If you are printing strictly by email you are completely lost and confused. I would suggest you ask a more tech sauvy friend of yours to help out. The email "feature" you are referring to is for when you are away from your computer at home and want to email a document to be printed over the internet.
