'Print' files directly to your Google Drive with Chrome!

Postby DarianSchouten » Wed Mar 06, 2013 9:11 pm

Let me start by saying that my head has been in the 'cloud' for a while now, but I was thrilled yesterday, when I found this neat little feature that is built in to the Google Chrome web browser.

When you print something from within Chrome, by default, you are presented with the Google Chrome Print Dialogue screen, instead of your computer's default print dialogue box. When this appears, Click the 'change' button below your systems default destination printer.

On the next screen that appears, scroll to the bottom and select, 'Save to Google Drive' underneath the 'Google Cloud Print ' header.

That's it! When you hit the Print buitton, if Chrome is already logged in to your Google account, the image will be placed in the main (root) folder of your Google Drive in PDF format, where you can print, share and more from there!

It's a simple tip, but an extremely useful one, especially for those of us who are constantly on the move.

Thanks for reading! :D
