There is API for printers on ChromeOS - printerProvider. There are some apps that use it, maybe something will work for you:

I used the IPP / CUPS extension for a while, but now use the HP Print for Chrome application. Obviously this is an HP-only printer solution, but seems to work a little better for me. I had to route IPP / CUPS through my Linux home server running cupsd. The HP Print application prints directly to the printer, one less thing to go wrong.

Thank you for those suggestions, I will try them.
