P: Lightroom Desktop: Ability to print

We really need a "convenient" way to print.  Some of us still like to create prints to hang on a wall.  While I know the printing is still available in "classic", to be able to move forward with Adode, an integrated print function needs to be added to Lightroom CC.

Printing capabilities similar to those in LrC are important. Photography is a hobby for me and the ability to produce printed photos in various layouts is important for giving photos to family and friends. Syncing with LrC is a workaround, but it introduces a lot of complexity.

I would be satisfied even if printing was not part of the iOS or Android offerings, just available on Lightroom Desktop. That would meet my needs and might make it easier for you to implement.

Thanks.

Your Printer is local to your PC, not to the Adobe servers... I really doubt that this would be possible nor practical.

I have been for some time editing only in the new cloud Lightroom, mainly from my iPad.

Then I bought a lovely Canon PRO-200 printer to print my photos, when I realised that the printing module was completely missing in this version of Lightroom, which took part of the joy of using the program with the printer, as I have now to export the image, then print, making the process more expensive (Harder to check colours, adjust the print...) and less fun.

I think it would be a great idea to bring the printing module from Lightroom Classic into the cloud version, at least some of the basic features to allow shipping the images the easiest way possible to print.

Yes, please!  Printing is important to many of us out here, even in the digital wilds.

Adobe never comments on future developments. If this is a real problem for you, then you should consider switching to Lightroom Classic.

When will this facility be available? As a new user I didn't know, and Adobe didn't make clear to me, that it is not possible to print from Lightroom CC, this is a big letdown.

Possibly someday, but Adobe doesn't set out their plans publicly in advance as things change. Add your vote to this request: Lightroom Desktop: Ability to print

I am finding that I like the cloud-based app more than the classic. Will I ever be able to print from the cloud-based app?

I need printing as well I don’t understand why this is taking so long to implement.
