Hey all....looking for some insight. I didn't have a lot of time to do an extensive amount of research between the Lightroom CC and Lightroom Classic. I ended up subscribing to the Lightroom CC however now I am realizing I probably made an unfortunate mistake as I'm not a wedding photographer (but take thousands of portraits per year). I'm trying to figure out if Lightroom CC still has the Print feature that contained the watermark option. Is this completely gone? If so, what are the alternative(s)?

Lightroom CC cannot print at all. It also cannot watermark. For both those features you need Lightroom Classic.

Agreed that there is not a print module in (the new cloud) LR CC. It is pretty clear the intent is not production printing.
It does have links to both Photoshop and (the old folder based) Lightroom Classic where printing and watermarks work.
A procedure I think I'm going to like is to save (new cloud) LR CC images for printing in a temporary folder and using the excellent printing software that Canon included with my printer from them.

LR CC can only export jpegs and then only in sRGB color space. Extremely suboptimal for printing. It can also do originals but those won't open correctly in non-Adobe software with all edits intact. Going through Photoshop or syncing back to Classic is probably the best option.

All these comments are really helpful. Thank you. Def will read reviews next time. Anyone able to help direct me how to sync back to classic? I don't have my original LR version on my new computer.

What exactly do you mean by "sync back to Classic"? And, are you going to put Classic on your new computer?
