The Physical Google Calendar

Printing your Google Calendar can be extremely useful for both personal and business reasons. Sometimes it’s easier to have it down on paper and take notes on it with a pen rather than staring at a screen. It’s also much more easier to take out during meetings, instead of opening up your laptop and possibly seeming rude.

Printing Your Google Calendar

Step One - Accessing Your Google Calendar

  • There’s different ways to access your Google Calendar. The easiest method is directly go to your Google calendar by going to https://www.google.com/calendar. From there you can sign in using your Google log in credentials.
