Thanks for confirming V2 printer. I need one help.
I have wifi setup + Google CLoud to run on the printer.
Now I want to set it up so that if someone sends to an email address then the attached doc should get printed. Is it possible and how?
I have seen that in FedEx, Staples and many community events.
if someone sends to an email address
I assume you mean sending the job to the printer as an email. There are some high-end printers that can do this (e.g. Xerox MFPs and HP's ePrint capable printers), but most cannot. Xerox also have a software solution: "Xerox® Print Management and Mobility Suite". It is supposed to work with non-Xerox printers. Disclaimer: I have not used this.

If you mean to automatically print emails that you (not the printer) receive, in Outlook (Windows) you can set a "rule" to do that. If you want to print attachments automatically, then you need additional tools like "Print Tools for Outlook".
it works
