Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : cups-cloudprint Version : 20130510 Upstream Author : Simon s...@niftiestsoftware.com * URL : http://www.niftiestsoftware.com/cups-cloud-print/ * License : GPL Programming Lang: Python Description : CUPS Cloud Print is a Google Cloud Print driver for UNIX-like operating systems. It allows any application which prints via CUPS to print to Google Cloud Print directly.
Assuming you have Print-Cloud-Ready printer, Google Cloud Print allows you to print to your printer without installing any printer specific drivers – aside from the obvious advantages of not having to install drivers for every printer you come into contact with, it allows you to use a proprietary printer on platforms you would not normally easily be able to use ( for example, printing from an ARM-based Raspberry Pi to a printer where the manufacturer only provides x86 proprietary drivers ). Also, because Google Docs ( Google Drive ) presents itself as a printer to Cloud Print, it also means you can ‘print’ directly to Google Docs using CUPS Cloud Print ( some users have leveraged this functionality to scan to Google Docs ). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
