Hey mate,
first of all thanks for your efforts. But I have some troubles getting it to work for me.
Opening cups and adding a printer works fine. Even adding it to my Google account. But it does not print. Printing a local test page from cups works. But Cloud prints are cancelled as I check CUPS:

When I close the configuration the command does not exit cleanly and stays forever at the last printed line. I use CTR+C to get out there but I assume there is something going wrong which is why printing also does not work.

$ docker exec  cloudprint configure close

Any suggestions?

I was hoping to find an image that allowed a volume to store the config/state elsewhere so upgrades to the image don't overwrite my settings and require a new setup. Have you looked into that? Cheers for setting this up regardless!

I'm trying to daemonize this with docker-compose but have been unable to get it to restore and start properly. Do you have any recommendations on how to do this?

version: "3" 
services:
   cloudprint:
     image: "jaymoulin/google-cloudprint"
     restart: always
     privileged: true
     volumes:
       - "./config:/root"
     ports:
        - "631:631"
     environment:
        TZ: America/Los_Angeles
        CUPS_USER_ADMIN: admin
        CUPS_USER_PASSWORD: supersecret

I have a Brother printer that I would like to use with this docker container.

What do you think would be the best way to add the drivers that I need to this container?

Should I create a dockerfile with FROM and reference yours and then add the needed drivers.

Thanks,

I'm trying to use this with a Brother MFC-9460CDN color laser printer.

I was able to wget the .deb files for the LPR printer driver and CUPSwrapper printer driver into the container, but can't run dpkg to install them:

sh: dpkg: not found

I also tried uploading the .ppd through the CUPS web interface, but then get:

Idle - "File "/usr/lib/cups/filter/brlpdwrappermfc9460cdn" not available: No such file or directory"

Is there a recommended way to install new print drivers?

Explicit title

I started the daemon with docker using the same command line from the readme.md. When I try to access any kind of option in the control panel I get 500 Server Error. I checked the logs and I saw this:

Unable to communicate with avahi-daemon: Daemon not running

I'm using Debian (open media vault).

Docker version 18.09.4, build d14af54
Kernel: 4.19.0-0.bpo.2-amd64
Connected printer is a Samsung SCX-4200.
