I saw it as a counterpoint to AirPrint. I'd like to know what changed that made Google think they don't really need this anymore. Maybe they think WiFi Direct is going to be the future?


Local wifi-based printing and printer discovery (same as Airprint) is already available on Google devices. No Cloudprint required.


But you still need individual print drivers.


Not for CUPS compatible printers.

Also HP provides its own apps and integration for local printing from Chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hp-print-for-chrom...
