Help CenterThe Google Admin console allows you to force the resolution and display scale of the internal or external display output for Chrome devices. This may be useful for hardware that doesn't properly negotiate resolution with the Chrome device. It could also be useful in certain cases where you want to use a lower resolution than what the display is capable of displaying.
- After logging in to your Google Admin console, go to the Device Management section.
- On the left hand side navigation menu, go to Chrome > Settings > Device to access device settings.
- Select the appropriate Organizational Unit (OU) on the left hand side that you would like to apply the settings to.
- Under the Device Settings tab, scroll down, or search for the Display settings heading.
