Print Google Slides from a Shared Drive

Presentations stored in shared drives or team drives are accessible the same way as personal Drive files for batch printing. Open the shared drive folder, select the Slides files, run the extension, and print the resulting PDFs.

Accessing shared drive presentations

Navigate to 'Shared drives' in Google Drive's left panel. Open the relevant folder and select the Slides presentations you need to print. Run the Docs to PDF extension the same way you would for a personal Drive file.

Access requirements

Viewer access is enough to export and print. Files with download restrictions set by the shared drive admin will fail; others export normally.

Team presentations for meetings

When multiple team members share a Drive folder of presentation materials for a meeting, any team member with access can batch-print the whole folder for physical distribution using the extension.
