Hi anon125,

 

Windows, Mac and Linux computers require drivers in order for a printer to communicate with that computer.

 

Chromebooks do not use drivers.  Chromebooks use Google Cloud Print.  You can use your PIXMA MX532 with Google Cloud Print so that you can print from your Chromebook to that printer.

try this.

use a chrome browser and connect to your printer. (maybe on a windows computer)

then when you return to the chromebook it should work.

so they say!

good luck

As of 2021 Chromebook does not use the Cloud. How do we hook up our Canon MX series printers now?

 

I'm wondering the same.  Any update for chromebooks with the mx532?

i have not heard anything useful
