"Update Required" Message #6

Closed wozzo closed 7 years ago

wozzo commented 10 years ago

I've got a RPi running raspbian, to which I have installed cloudprint following the instructions here - http://davesteele.github.io/cloudprint-service/ppa.html The printer had been tested with cups, and chromium allowed use of it as a Google cloud printer too, but using cloudprint the printer appears as online, but jobs remain in the queue.

On the google cloud print management page for the printer the message "Update Required" appears next to the job, which directs me to this page - https://support.google.com/cloudprint/?hl=en#3210000

Any ideas? I'm very new to Linux.

That's new.

One thing to check is if cloudprintd is running properly:

sudo service cloudprintd status

If it is not, you may be on the path of #3.

The other path to take is to update as directed. Cloudprint uploads a printer description loaded from the printer. Google may simply be detecting something in that data. The good news is that I have seen Epson printers interface fine to Google Cloud Print, with no need for cloudprint-service or a Raspberry Pi.
