On a marginally related question... Does anyone know how to deal with
non-HP printers for HP's ePrint technology? It seems that HP has a check
to make sure the printer is an HP product (even though it meets the
ePrint requirements). So, even though I have an ipp networked printer
that supports PCL, ePrint complains that it is an unsupported printer.
I think what is needed is an ipp proxy that will announce itself as an
HP device and relay to the non-HP printer.

I e could the printer queues in OI be made cloud aware and cloud responsive??
I'm not aware of any cloud printing services to traditional "legacy" devices
aside from those offered by Google. And as far as I know, it's entirely dependent on the
Chrome browser and the cloud print extension. So it would require an effort to either
port Chrome to OI or Solaris or extract that functionality from the browser extension and
integrate it in to the OS. So if you're eager to use cloud printing right away with OI,
I'd recommend upgrading your printer instead.
