When one has checked have Google Chrome running in the background, even after shutting down the Google cloud printing service keeps running.
Should Google Chrome run in the background?

Yes the chrome.exe process will continue to run for the google cloud print to work.  Unless you have a google cloud print ready printer in which case its not necessary for chrome.exe to keep running.
