Why do you still need a computer, if your phone is Google Docs-capable?

You need a computer to connect your printer to the cloud. Only Windows is supported with Google Chrome Beta.

Thanks for the clarification, WebSonic. I guess the functionality will come to other platforms eventually.

Yes, Linux and Mac OS X support is coming:

<< Let’s say you need to print an important email attachment on your way to work so that it’s waiting for you when you walk in the door. With Gmail for mobile and Google Cloud Print — a service that allows printing from any app on any device, OS or browser without the need to install drivers — you can.

To get started, you’ll first need to connect your printer to Google Cloud Print. For now, this step requires a Windows PC but Linux and Mac support are coming soon.
