Ratings and reviews

Basically, it's usless! Every time! Every time I use it, says the printer is not available or blocked. Then, after spending 20 to 30 minutes troubleshooting this and that, maybe it will print but, probably not! Literally, it's easier to email and print files from my computer. UPDATE, I've reinstalled the app. Somehow they made it worse.(Imagine that!) Alone with printer errors, it's also blocking other computers from printing. Google should remove.

Works half the time. By that I mean it doesn't always screw up what I'm trying to print. Most of the time you can't select where you want the paper to print from (front or back tray), there's NO preview or resizing option and the option to remove borders isn't really a thing either. With those before mentioned options it would be 5 stars for sure! It took me 10 WASTED PRINTS to get a UPS label to properly print out without being chopped or a full 8.5x11 size!!!! Really disappointed!!!!!!

Works well when the app can be seen in share options. In Chrome or OneDrive, it doesn't show up as an option under sharing! This is my biggest issue. I cannot print using this app in chrome or onedrive apps. I hope this can be fixed. Also everytime there is a system update, the app needs to be reenabled. There's no warning or error or instruction about this. Otherwise printer would not be visible. App doesn't remember two sided printing setting which can be improved.
