Why can I print from my laptop when I am using Internet explorer but not when I am using google chrome?

Any number of reasons: most likely some add-in or spyware hooked onto chrome. If it were my computer, I’d run a spyware tool like spybot and/or ccleaner, reinstall chrome, and then start printing away.

What happens when you try to print from Chrome?

And I have a guess. When I choose print in Chrome, the print dialog pops up and there is a “Destination” which is by default “Save as PDF”.

Click on “Change” to choose a printer instead of PDF.

By the way, the “Save as PDF” option is also extremely useful.

@chyna
I’m dying to know if either of these fixed your problem!

@jaytkay‘s was the quickest one to try so I tried his and it worked!
Thanks to both of you for helping with my problem.

Glad it helped! I changed my avatar in celebration!

^Love it!

Awesome!

It’s most likely because chrome doesn’t have the necessary permissions to print
