hp printer problems - mel54 - 04-04-2023

hello from the country of asterix

I'm sorry for my english, i try to do my best, google is my friend
I use linux lite since almost the standings of this operating system, while I had printers canon, epson etc etc, I never had problems, but since I changed to an hp 6000 series, it's always problems, printer not recognized, scanner not recognized, and because of that I had to replace the operating system of my main computer, but always keeping linux lite on the laptop.
do you have a solution for this type of problem? thank you in advance.

What version of Linux Lite are you using on the laptop ?
What exact model of 6000 series printer ?
How is the printer connected to the laptop ?

If you connect via USB do the instructions at this link work ?

If you conect over a network ensure the printer has a static address and try the following in 'Enter device URI'
replace aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd with the IP address assigned to your printer.

socket://aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:9100
