Hi @mmurray358,

Welcome to The HP Support Community.  

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

I understand your HP OfficeJet 4650 Printer is not printing from Chromebook, here are some steps you can follow to troubleshoot and set up the printer:
 

1. Make sure your printer supports Google Cloud Print:

• HP OfficeJet 4650 supports printing via Google Cloud Print. However, as Google Cloud Print was deprecated, newer printing protocols like Wi-Fi Direct or HP Print for Chrome should be used.

2. Enable Wi-Fi Direct Printing:

• On your printer:
  1. Press the Wi-Fi Direct button (or access it via the printer's control panel).
  2. If Wi-Fi Direct is off, turn it on.
  3. Make sure the printer is broadcasting its Wi-Fi Direct name.
• On your Chromebook:
  1. Click on the clock in the lower-right corner and go to Settings.
  2. Select Wi-Fi and look for your printer’s Wi-Fi Direct name in the list of available networks.
  3. Connect to it using the default password provided by your printer.

3. Use HP Print for Chrome Extension:

• If you haven’t installed it already, go to the HP Print for Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store.
• After installing:
  1. Open HP Print for Chrome.
  2. Click the extension icon from the Chrome toolbar.
  3. Add your HP OfficeJet 4650 printer by following the on-screen prompts.
  4. Try printing a test page.

4. Update Chromebook OS and Printer Firmware:

• Ensure that your Chromebook is up to date with the latest version.
• Check if there are any firmware updates available for your HP OfficeJet 4650 by visiting the HP Support Website.

5. Print via USB Cable (If Needed):

• If Wi-Fi or wireless printing doesn’t work, connect your printer to the Chromebook using a USB cable. You may need to manually add the printer in Settings > Advanced > Printing.
