Sharing Linux USB printer with Windows

We are trying to let a Window 10 laptop print to
a USB printer attached to my Fedora 32 box.

The host name of the Linux box has been set as by root as follows:

Code: hostnamectl set-hostname georgeThe printers name, as set by the Fedora print admin tool is:
HP_LaserJet_P2035

As root, I executed the following commands:

Code: cupsctl --share-printers

lpadmin -p HP_LaserJet_P2035 -o printer-is-shared=true

lpadmin -p HP_LaserJet_P2035 -E -v ipp://george/printers/HP_LaserJet_P2035 -m everywhere
Then, on the Windows 10 laptop, we installed a network printer
with the following address:

Code: http://george:631/printers/HP_LaserJet_P2035
Port 631 is the IPP port, as specified by /etc/services

So far, we have been unable to print from Windows. The Linux USB
printer has installed under Windows, but when trying to print we get
the useful error messages: "Error Printing".

Can anyone help us out?
Thank you for your time.latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=mwTVGOt2_Zk:H83XsJiDyrc:F7zBnMy latest?i=mwTVGOt2_Zk:H83XsJiDyrc:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=mwTVGOt2_Zk:H83XsJiDyrc:gIN9vFwmwTVGOt2_Zk
