Yeah, using printers with Linux gotten super easy to handle. Even my shared WiFi HP printer was super easy to setup. Oh how far we have come in hardware support! XD
Perfect timing! I'm using Arch Linux and I was wondering why it couldn't detect any printers. After watching this video, I understand everything! I was so used to Linux Mint and Pop!_OS that just had printer support out of the box, and I was wondering why it just didn't work!
thanks DT, last time i was unable to install my drivers on windows, i went to the forums and they told me to go to a service center :/. and this time, i have successfully printed after 20 mins uptime after installation.

Thanks for the video! I am actually Ubuntu user but I could not use my Canon printer for a while. I guess my previous google searches ended up manual setup methods. I even tried to install some packages manually but I could not solve the problem and gave up... Now, I added my printer from Settings -> Printers easily. Thanks again!
I was actually mildly amused a few years ago when I installed Fedora (whatever was current at the time) on a spare laptop - and realised that my Canon MG2950 WiFi printer-scanner suddenly appeared - without me doing a thing; even scanning worked.
Thank you. Not new to Linux, but new to Arch. Spent about an hour or more trying to get my HP printer installed. After 5 mins of your video I was printing the test page. Cheers.
I accidentally deleted my Windows during Arch installation and just accepted I have to live with Arch now (I couldn't be bothered reinstalling it again) when my brother bugged me to print something and I LITERALLY HAD NO IDEA HOW TO DO IT IN ARCH... turns out it was very easy!!! Your vid was very helpful.
Thanks DT! I was having trouble with adding a printer through the KDE Plasma System Settings application. It was a piece of cake adding a printer with this other application you suggested. Take my like!
BTW I love the content you make. Keep doing this dear. Its great. I appreciate this. I guess, we all appreciate this. Thank you so much. I learnt so much from you and still miles to go.
Brother in my experience has been really solid as well, and the cost of toner on most of their B/W laser printer if you buy generic is super cheap too boot.
Thank you DT. Teaching is one of your gifts. By now it would seem that every linux distro would recognize the value of easy printer installation and so be prepared with necessary utilities already baked-in. Scanner installation can also be problematic even in Debian-based distros. Ask Ubuntu to the rescue. All users eventually need printer & scanner capabilities in the linux desktop.
BTW, Apple did not develop CUPS, they purchased the project. The first time I dealt with CUPS was on RedHat 8.0 (early 2000s) just after it succeeded LPD as the default printing system. Mandrake adopted it just before that, and I believe SuSE did the same. At the time mentioned they were still hanging on to some legacy system they ported from MacOS 9.X.
@@MenacingPerson I run mostly Ubuntu based versions of Linux, but I also run Windows and MacOS for other things, so besides UNIX (which I think installed with CUPS also); I generally never need to add a service to do something as simple as printing. I'm sure if I went with a purely libre installation, like one GUIX printing would be an issue.
Great timing DT, just switched to Arch from SpywareDoze and trying to get a Cannon Pixmar ? Printer working, any tips you guys have would be appreciated greatly! 👍🏼

thanks DT your video was simple and straight forward and I set up my printer super fast. I seen a video about installing a printer and he goes setting a server with cups and opening it a browser I was super confused since I had arch before and I know that was unnecessary.
Honestly a question I've had without many good answers is photo printers... With the wrong drivers the photo printers will print with the same settings they would use on paper and without any resolution. Is there any easy or clear way to utilize Canon or Epson photo printers on Linux?
Ok, I'm using ZorinOS (think it is also based on ubuntu) and had something to print, but just didn't want to, it threw out errors all lights blinking, as there wasn't any paper and ink, so tried to stop to see which ink cartridge is empty -> nothing. And yeah, it also was saying the print is completed even though nothing was printed. So first I removed/purged cups and deleted the etc/cups directory. And reinstalled it. Just reinstalling cups wasn't enough. Needed to also install cups-daemon ! Well now it should work you'd think, as I the computer sees the printer. Nope, it doesn't. Manually searched for printer in the printer gui and to my surprise it finds it, but with a 2 at the end! Now it works. With deleting cups I probably deleted all the ppd files, even though I tried manually installing them, but failed. It was weird as the printer Epson Stylus SX110 has a scanner installed too and just copying documents worked fine.
What I wanted to say, after doing all this, it might have been easier to just remove the printer from the printer page in settings and trying to find it again.
I've used HP printer on Ubuntu it was always plug n play process on Fedora it asks to install some programs from the software center but it's rather easy as well

When working with HP Printers, the easiest way to guarantee a clean, working install (IMHO) Use this command after installing HPLIP:: sudo hp-setup -i It allows you to choose what type of printer (USB, NETWORK, PARALLEL) * If it is a Network Printer, you can feed it the IP directly :: sudo hp-setup -i nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn -g * This also lets you NAME the printer and designate a Location / Description * It allows you to configure the FAX information if it is an AIO device It will download the driver if required (especially important for certain AIO Printer) * That is very important when trying to setup the scanner on the AIO device For an AIO, if you do it this way, it will automatically prompt you to download the specific Scanner Plugin to the HPLIP driver when you set up your preferred scanning utility.

It's seems like it so simple until you have office with tens of models of printers and MFU of many manufacturers like canon, hp, kyocera, samsung, brother, with complete different level of linux support. For example, what about two-sided printing (duplex) (which have 2 modes whether it portrait or album, it makes me crazy on windows), scan and duplex scanning, and colors may be incorrect, and network printing and, especially, scanning, and so on... Now more and more relatively modern printers have some kind of linux support, but older ones ... depends.. they offer don't have win10 support, because manufacturer just forget about it after 5-7 years after launch
Curious if anyone has had any difficulty printing to University printing systems that don't support Linux. Stinks because the system I had did not have a webUI upload

When working with HP Printers, the easiest way to guarantee a clean, working install (IMHO)
Use this command after installing HPLIP:: sudo hp-setup -i
It allows you to choose what type of printer (USB, NETWORK, PARALLEL)
* If it is a Network Printer, you can feed it the IP directly :: sudo hp-setup -i nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn -g
* This also lets you NAME the printer and designate a Location / Description
* It allows you to configure the FAX information if it is an AIO device
It will download the driver if required (especially important for certain AIO Printer)
* That is very important when trying to setup the scanner on the AIO device
For an AIO, if you do it this way, it will automatically prompt you to download the specific Scanner Plugin to the HPLIP driver when you set up your preferred scanning utility.
