To use Google Cloud Print, a Google account is required. This section describes how to register the machine in Google Cloud Print using a Google account.

If you already have an account, there is no need to create a new account. Proceed to step 3.

  • To enter the [Google Cloud Print] menu, the administrator password is required.

    To check from the Web page, select [Admin Setup] > [TCP/IP] in "Using the Web Page of This Machine".
