Google Cloud Print using C#

问题


I try to use Google Cloud Print using C#. Internet has just one example, who wrote Josh Goebel. I will not publish the complete example, here is the only method that sends a file to print:


public CloudPrintJob PrintDocument(string printerId, string title, byte[] document)
    {
        try
        {
            string authCode;
            if (!Authorize(out authCode))
                return new CloudPrintJob() { success = false };

            HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://www.google.com/cloudprint/submit?output=json");
            request.Method = "POST";

            string queryString =
                "printerid=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode(printerId) +
                "&capabilities=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode("") +
                "&contentType=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode("application/pdf") +
                "&title=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode(title) +
                "&content=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode(Convert.ToBase64String(document));

            byte[] data = new ASCIIEncoding().GetBytes(queryString);

            request.Headers.Add("X-CloudPrint-Proxy", Source);
            request.Headers.Add("Authorization", "GoogleLogin auth=" + authCode);

            request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
            request.ContentLength = data.Length;

            Stream stream = request.GetRequestStream();
            stream.Write(data, 0, data.Length);
            stream.Close();

            // Get response
            HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
            string responseContent = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()).ReadToEnd();

            DataContractJsonSerializer serializer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof(CloudPrintJob));
            MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(responseContent));
            CloudPrintJob printJob = serializer.ReadObject(ms) as CloudPrintJob;

            return printJob;
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            return new CloudPrintJob() { success = false, message = ex.Message };
        }
    }

I run this code, then there is an interface of my printer, but print is not happening. The interface of my printer says that the pages to print 0, and the file size does not coincide with the one I sent to the printer.

Google Cloud Print says that the task(job) is successfully added, but at the interface of Google Cloud Print next to the name of the document display "Error".

I thought that might have a problem with HttpUtility.UrlEncode or Convert.ToBase64String, but I tried the reverse transformation - everything works.

Does anyone have any ideas?


回答1:


I appreciate this question is a little old now, but I've recently had to look at this for something I'm doing at work, and whilst the sample code posted started me off in the right direction it did take me quite a while to get it working completely.

The "list printers" function worked OK as described, but I couldn't get the Submit working properly, it just went straight to Error as the OP describes.

After profiling an actual submit request in Chrome using Fiddler, and looking at the PHP sample code on google's website, I discovered that the submit needed to be a multipart MIME message or it wouldn't work properly.

This is an example of the HTTP POST message which finally got the Submit operation working. Note that the gcp Printer Id needs to be passed in the request URL, and the data (whether it be a PDF, JPG or PNG) needs to be Base64 encoded and the correct mime type set (application/pdf, image/jpeg ...) for the "content" block (the last one in the list below):

POST http://www.google.com/cloudprint/submit?printerid=<printerid>&output=json HTTP/1.1
Host: www.google.com
Content-Length: 44544
X-CloudPrint-Proxy: Google-JS
Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=----CloudPrintFormBoundaryqeq6g6ncj5v7

------CloudPrintFormBoundaryqeq6g6ncj5v7
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="capabilities"

{"capabilities":[{}]}
------CloudPrintFormBoundaryqeq6g6ncj5v7
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="contentType"

dataUrl
------CloudPrintFormBoundaryqeq6g6ncj5v7
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="title"

zodiac-pig-pic.jpg
------CloudPrintFormBoundaryqeq6g6ncj5v7
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="content"

data:image/jpeg;base64,JVBERi0xLjQKJeHp69MKMiAwIG...2NgolJUVPRg==
------CloudPrintFormBoundaryqeq6g6ncj5v7--

Things which tripped me up were that the Boundary value specified in the header has 2 less hyphens (--) than the actual usage of them (not obvious when you're staring at something wondering why it's not working!), the very last boundary instance has two additional hyphens at the end, and that I needed to get rid of the C# Expect100Continue header (by using request.ServicePoint.Expect100Continue = false).

UPDATE: Here is the complete code I wrote at the time, in case it helps anyone out.

For anyone struggling with this, I have created a github repository with code and instructions on how to use Google cloud print with a service account, updated for their new OAuth2 authentication method:

https://github.com/io7/GoogleCloudPrint




回答3:


Looks like the reason of the problem is encoding of the data you sent to the server. The most reliable solutions in this case would be to use data URI scheme when you send the document. To do that you need to set contentType to "dataUrl" and pass data in the following format: "data:application/pdf;base64," + Convert.ToBase64String(document)




回答4:


It should be noted that sending capabilities is mandatory. Not sending it will result in the job turning to Error immediately after submission. A default value should always be sent:

{"capabilities":[{}]}
