Newly installed Ubuntu 22.04 LTS on a dual boot PC. It won’t print to the network attached “HP Neverstop Laser MFP 1202w” printer (Note: the printer works well with another PC running Ubuntu 20.04.4).

  1. Ubuntu is aware of the printer.
  2. I used the GUI Settings interface to select various drivers via “Select from database...”. Outcome varies but never with a successful print.
  3. This is the last two lines from the Cups error_log:

E [07/Jun/2022:15:39:36 -0700] [Job 48] No destination host name supplied by cups-browsed for printer "[email protected]", is cups-browsed running?

W [07/Jun/2022:15:39:36 -0700] [Job 48] Backend returned status 4 (stop printer)

Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated.

    Access the CUPS UI by browsing to http://localhost:631. Add your printer through the Admin tab.

  • Thank you waltinator, you gave me a start point. I now have a source for learning about CUPS.
