1. Introduction
1.1 About Cloud Print
Cloud Print is designed to provide a connection between KYOCERA devices and Google Cloud Print,
allowing users to print documents quickly and easily from their Google Docs or Apps via their phone,
tablet, Chromebook or PC.
Cloud Print also utilises any built-in authentication to provide secure print release, meaning any
documents printed via Google Cloud Print are not released until the user logs in. Cloud Print works with
other print management software such as PaperCut, Equitrac and Safecom.
1.2 This Guide
This document describes the components, functions, installation requirements and setup steps required
to deploy Cloud Print effectively.

* KYOCERA Multifunctional Printers require a
compatible memory card (SD –card) to be
inserted prior to installing applications. This
installation should be carried out by an
authorised partner technician.
1.4 Licensing
Cloud Print requires the purchase of a software license from an authorised KYOCERA partner.
The software can be evaluated, free of charge, during a 30 day trial period. The application will stop
working when the trial period expires and requires a license key to be entered for continued use. Once an
initial 30 day trial has been enabled and completed, the MFP cannot be configured for an additional trial.
Once licenced and activated on a device, the licence is non-transferable.

11. After Cloud Print is activated successfully, it can be executed from the main Application screen
(opened by pressing the Application key on the control panel).
UPGRADE NOTE: For HyPAS MFPs with existing Cloud Print versions (1.x):
Cloud Print can be upgraded via the HyPAS system menu; insert a USB drive with the new package file
and the MFP will detect that a new version is available. This method will eliminate the need to enter the
license key activation code on the MFP. Once the upgrade has been completed, the MFP needs to be
powered off and on again.
If the original package file is uninstalled on the MFP prior to installing version 2.x, you will have to re-enter
your license key activation code after installation.
2.5 Registering a printer with Google
1. Open the Cloud Print application from the MFP home-screen and type the name for a printer that
will be registered with Google Cloud Print and click on the “REGISTER” button.
2. The application will initialise the registration and then print out an invitation to register the printer
to Google via a web browser.
