Can I set this up with a Chromebook?

Already well answered but I'll add that I haven't been able to scan from my Chromebook. I can only do that using an Android device.

Yes, the HL-L2380DW supports "Google Cloud Print" which allows you to print from Chromebooks or anywhere you are signed into the Google Chrome web browser. The manual is not entirely clear how to set this up, but once you have the printer connected to your router, open up your a web browser on your laptop and go to the printer's IP address (something like "192.168.1.3"; you'll find it printed on the sheet that prints after you connect the printer to your router). This will load up the printer's web interface and you will go to "Network", then "Protocol", then click the "Advanced" button near Google Cloud Print. This will walk you through the registration process. Once it is setup, you can use your Chromebook anywhere (like a coffee shop) and when you go to print, it will print to this printer at home.

Hello, are these instructions different than adding the printer using a Gmail account? My daughter has a Chromebook from school that she takes home but will need to return it at the end of the school year and I prefer to have the printer associated with a Gmail account instead of an IP address.Thanks

Ryan's answer worked well for me after I found the correct IP address. It did not print out automatically, and the one he listed did not work for me. To find it, go to the device's touchscreen interface home page. Click "Settings>All Settings>Print Reports>Network Configuration". This will print a page to display the IP Address, then Ryan's excellent instructions will work fine on a Chromebook.

I found these responses to be extremely helpful and was able to set up cloud print through my chromebook without ever actually plugging physically into computer. Extremely happy with these helpful answers.

I tried every last piece of advice, and unfortunately, Ryan's answer did not work for me. We have 3 chromebooks, not a single one can find the printer. I'm so angry, I would have never bought this printer had I known how frustrating this process would be!!!

It comes with a driver for linux. Chrome-books are linux based but may not allow installation of drivers. You need to find someone that owns one and has tried it.

It should work if you have a USB slot like on a regular Laptop or home computer. I'm not sure the type of USB slots are on a Chromebook. Look close at the specifications for the Speaker and also on your Chromebook instructions. Good Luck!

I don't have a chromebook, I have a touchscreen laptop and it works fine. I think as long as the chromebook has an usb port it will work.

Yes, you can. We use a wireless USB mouse with ours and keep the Chromebook hooked up to our TV for Hulu/Netflix, internet radio, etc., and can use the mouse like a remote control.

I do not have a chrome book, but from my experience with the item dealing with android and Ubuntu this should work as a generic hub.

No idea. I know nothing about ChromeBooks. Depends on whether ChromeOS and ChromeBook support the device which is a pretty standard USB storage device. I know of no reason why it wouldn't work, but, again, I am ignorant about ChromeOS. Good luck.

It should. This is an Imager for telescopes, but to the computer it works as a USB Web cam.Essentially any computer with USB will work.The issue might be finding image processing software for your Chromebook. Normally you set up the Imager and take a few minutes of video. Then you use software to select the best frames and stack them into a still image.There are free program for Windows and Linux, but I haven't seen any for a Chromebook. There may be, but I haven't looked.Good luck!

No because the Chromebook has no disc drive and this program requires one. It must be downloaded onto the hard drive.

The Chromebook has a USB port, so it should work. (USB 2.0 is sufficient, and a USB 3.0 port will work too, though you'd want to save that for devices that can benefit from the speed, like external disk drives.) A mouse is about as generic and common as you can get. I haven't seen one yet that has any compatibility problems.

You cannot load programs into a Chromebook. It comes with the entire suite of Google office-like apps free.

Hi Donald. It's not compatible with Chromebook. This Linksys USB Ethernet Adapter will only work with computers running on Windows 98SE, ME, 2000, XP, and Mac OSX 10.5.

Yes. That is what I am using the mouse for. You have to have a USB port in your Chromebook to plug the receiver in.

Well, you can ask away here, and there are some dedicated web sites with more info about Chromebooks... such as http://chromebook.lotontech.com

It connects using bluetooth. I dont' have a chromebook, but I would assume that if you can connect with other devices via bluetooth that this would work.

Since it's just a usb keyboard, yes it should work. in fact, any usb keyboard should work with the chromebook; wired or wireless.

I have no idea how it works with the Chromebook. I have an Asus Eee PC. It works very well with it. I have not accounted for the time it lasts but it works pretty well and I am very happy with it.
