My printer is connected and shared by Ubuntu 14.04 server (old laptop). I can use this printer with Windows laptop.

I wonder how can I add this printer to Google Cloudprint and make it accessible by Android phone. In Windows I can do that via Google Chrome but no idea what to do with Ubuntu server.

  • @Rinzwind I already checked that link, it's adding google cloud printer to ubuntu. I'm trying to do vice-versa. I need this printer added to google cloud. – emrecnl Sep 01 '15 at 18:40

After installing Google Cloud Print, you need to run it in a terminal by hitting Ctrl-Alt-T and typing the following command:

cloudprint

Your existing printers will be then imported into Google Cloud Print.
