Now with ShipStation and Google Cloud Print, you can print shipping labels wherever you are!

 

This feature is now available on all ShipStation plans. The only requirement is that you have Google Chrome installed on the computer that is connected to your printer. You may continue to use ShipStation with any browser once Google Cloud Print has been set up.

Once Chrome is installed, follow these simple steps to get started with Google Cloud Print:

 

Step 1) Using Google Chrome on the computer that is attached to the printer, log in to ShipStation.

 

Step 2) Go to Settings > General Settings
