Epson SX535WD and Chromebook - so close yet so far away

[berre]

Hi all

I've always been able to print without issues via google cloud print but this service is being shut down end of this year

So I removed it from cloudprint to see if I could connect to it 'normally' from my chromebook

My printer gets detected (I added "autodetected" to the name) and there's a green indicator next to it

When I check the settings I have:
address: epson.local:631
protocol: IPP
print queue: Epson_IPP_Printer
uri: ipp://epson.local:631/Epson_IPP_Printer

However when I try to print something the printer actually mentions "printing" on the screen but nothing happens

Any ideas?

Cheers
B

ok for anyone stumbling on this desperatly trying to get their wireless printing back up and running:
found a fix on chrome web store: "WiFi printer driver for Chromebooks" by directprint.io

install the app, open it to see if your printer is supported (mine was) and press ctrl+p and select the printername the app shows you

it's that easy!
