Jepu Neulanen · Jan 9, 2024

Hi, I have connected printer with universal print and tried to print test page using QR code. However the test page won't show up and status stays as "Pending". What can I do? I'm using HP Color LaserJet Flow MFP E877 printer.

Universal Print integration with Excel for the web

You can now print directly from Excel for the web to your organization’s printers with Universal Print. Integrating Universal Print into Excel for the web gives authenticated users a new in-app print experience to search for and print to available printers in their organization. They can do that on any device with Edge or Chrome browsers without installing the printer. How to use this new feature If you are using Universal Print in your organization and you have access to your organization’s printers, you can now print directly from within Excel for the web. To do that:

Open an Excel file in the browser.

Access the print interface in one of 3 ways:

Select File > Print

Select Page Layout > Page Setup

Through the Ctrl + P / Command + P keyboard shortcut

In the Printer section of the right-hand pane, expand the dropdown menu to see the available cloud printers to which you have access.

Select the printer you want to use from the list or search for a printer by name.
