HP Laserjet Pro P1102w
by dwhb from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4XTWW)
Machine running Mint 19.2 Xfce (intending to upgrade to 19.3)is almost 10 years old. It uses a wireless adapter to connect to an NBN enabled router (uniquely Oz?).
My problem is that I don't understand how to set up the printer so it can also print wirelessly from the same printer which is connected to an Intel NUC box (running Mint 19.2 Cinnamon). The printer works in that setup because it is plugged into the NUC's USB port. Hplip-3.19.12 has been installed in the old machine running Xfce, but it is says that "No installed HP devices found". I've tried adding printer in CUPS but got stuck in using the correct URI.
I do not know how else to describe the problem and am hoping that the experts in this forum can tell me what info (and how to retrieve such info) is required to solve this problem. Do I need a physical wireless adaptor to print over a network? If yes, How to configure a wireless network? etc etc
I apologise for the apparently sketchy (and probably useless) description of the problem. So, thanks in advance for the help I've always been fortunate to receive from this forum's gurus. <thumbs up>
