Hi all, I installed cloudprint and the dependencies, including cloudprint-service. When I run cloudprint I get No printers found. None of the options let me log in, even after trying the daemon option. Am I missing something obvious or is this a bug? Happy to add any details.

Cloudprint-service is not covered in this repository - see https://github.com/davesteele/cloudprint-service.

Having said that, there are a couple of answers to your question. If you have a recent version of cloudprint-service, run cps-auth as root, follow the instructions, then restart cloudprintd ("systemctl restart cloudprintd").

If you are just using using the cloudprint program by itself. 'cloudprint -c' should also tell you what to do to establish authentication.

There is more information in the man pages.

Thanks davesteele, Unfortunately both commands sudo cps-auth and cloudprint -c yielded no printers found. What should I do about this?

I've consulted the manpages before making the earlier post and saw the cloudprint -c option and yielded that result, nothing else in the manpages were of much help.

That makes it a CUPS issue. See https://davesteele.github.io/raspberrypi/2016/04/23/raspberry-pi-cloudprint/ for a quick start on getting to the CUPS remote admin page.
