I am using Google Cloud Print in my android application. For that I have registered my printer on google cloud and while on printing command it gives me list of registered printers on google cloud for printing.
But, How can I give message like : "Please, Register your Printer on Google cloud",,, If user not registered his/her printer on cloud ?
That means, How can I know that, there is no printer registered on Google Cloud Programmatically ?
PrintHelper printHelper = new PrintHelper(QRCodeListActivity.this);
printHelper.setScaleMode(printHelper.SCALE_MODE_FIT);
printHelper.printBitmap("Print Bitmap", result);
Yes , You can do it, Just make a call to Search REST API of Google cloud print. search API = https://www.google.com/cloudprint/search.
It will return an object that contains the list of printers with details.Then you can parse that object , then you would know if any printer is registered or not. I have done using this way in AngularJS..
var data = {'connection_status': 'ALL', ticket: ''};
var req = {
method: 'POST',
url: 'https://www.google.com/cloudprint/search',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8',
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + token
},
params: data,
}
$http(req).then(function (data) {
success(data);
}, function (data) {
error(data);
});
And don't forget that , you must have a valid token..
