SYNOPSIS
cloudprintd [OPTION]...
DESCRIPTION
The cloudprintd script makes locally defined CUPS printers available to a Google account, enabling local or remote printing from such services as the Chrome browser, Chrome OS devices, or Android devices.This is a lower-level command. Cloud Print services would normally be managed through the cloudprint service.
The cloudprint utility is linked as cloudprintd for the cloudprint-service package.

- -c
- establish credentials to the service, then exit.

- -f
- fast poll, if notifications aren't working.
- -i regexp

cloudprintd will prompt for a username and password if the information has not been provided.
