Depending upon what you mean, I don't think it's even remotely possible.

If you meant:

   - print from HP 3000 to a printer via google cloud

      no.  

      Oh, it's possible someone could investigate the Google Cloud Print API
      and write some software for the HP 3000 that would intercept output
      sent to a "local" printer and redirect it to the Google Cloud API.
      But, it's not likely to happen.

  
   - print from an iOS or Android app (or a Safari / Chrome web browser)
     to a network printer a 3000 also prints on.
      
       yes ... but the 3000 will be unaware it's sharing the printer with
       Google Cloud (or with other users, for that matter)


   - print from an iOS or Android app (or a Safari / Chrome web browser)
     to a printer locally attached (e.g., HP-IB) to printer on a 3000.

       no.

       This would be hard, and (most likely) undesirable.
