Add a new printer ( via http://127.0.0.1:631 or usual interface ) as a 'Google Cloud Print' network printer. Select the 'Make' as Google, and 'Model' as Cloud Print. Supply the connection name as a simple URI pointing to the printer you want to setup, you can obtain a list of URIs from /usr/share/cloudprint-cups/listcloudprinters.py ( or /usr/local/share/cloudprint-cups/listcloudprinters.py ) :
