Now, I found solution for my issue: Maybe the problem come from the Android SDK version. You can see this link: https://developers.google.com/cloud-print/docs/android. (It's mean GCP only support for Android version 4.3 below). Although, I tested on the emulator 4.2 but it still unlucky.

So that, I changed the direction to the Android Print Framework with a little difficult.

Firstly, I must install Cloud Print Services on emulator.

Secondly, I login Google Account Services for printing function enable and connect to my printer.

Thirdly, I use this code for exec print action

private void printDoc() {
        PrintManager printManager = (PrintManager) this.getSystemService(Context.PRINT_SERVICE);
        String jobName = mFileName;


        Intent myIntent = getIntent();
        Uri docUri = myIntent != null ? myIntent.getData() : null;

        PrintDocumentAdapter pda = new PrintDocumentAdapter(){
            @Override
            public void onLayout(PrintAttributes oldAttributes, PrintAttributes newAttributes, CancellationSignal cancellationSignal, LayoutResultCallback callback, Bundle extras){

                if (cancellationSignal.isCanceled()) {
                    callback.onLayoutCancelled();
                    //return;
                }

             // Compute the expected number of printed pages
                int pages = computePageCount(newAttributes);

                PrintDocumentInfo pdi = new PrintDocumentInfo.Builder(mFileName).setContentType(PrintDocumentInfo.CONTENT_TYPE_DOCUMENT).setPageCount(pages).build();

                callback.onLayoutFinished(pdi, true);
            }

            @Override
            public void onWrite(PageRange[] pages, ParcelFileDescriptor destination, CancellationSignal cancellationSignal, WriteResultCallback callback){
                InputStream input = null;
                OutputStream output = null;

                try {

                    input = new FileInputStream(docUri.toString());
                    output = new FileOutputStream(destination.getFileDescriptor());

                    byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
                    int bytesRead;

                    while ((bytesRead = input.read(buf)) > 0) {
                         output.write(buf, 0, bytesRead);
                    }

                    callback.onWriteFinished(pages);

                } catch (FileNotFoundException ee){
                    //Catch exception
                } catch (Exception e) {
                    //Catch exception
                } finally {
                    try {
                        input.close();
                        output.close();
                    } catch (IOException e) {
                        e.printStackTrace();
                    }
                }
            }


        };
        printManager.print(jobName, pda, null);
    }
