Printer not detected on Garuda Gnome

Issues & Assistance KDE
1

Hi all,

I'm migrating to Garuda Gnome from Manjaro Gnome. Historically, my printer has always worked quite easily right out of the box, being auto detected and drivers being auto detected. However, after installed Garuda, when I add the printer, it says Suitable Driver Not Found" and although the printer is detected, it doesn't stay in my printer list and I cannot print a test page to it.

The printer is a HP LaserJet MFP M426fdw

Any ideas?

Do you have hplip installed?

sudo pacman -Syu hplip

Yes, it is installed already from Official Repos Extra. Is there maybe something I need to do to configure it?

You can go to http://localhost:631/ to configure your printer, though I am not sure what exactly is necessary.
If web interface is unreachable, start CUPS:

sudo systemctl start cups.service

If the above command fails too, install CUPS:

sudo pacman -S cups
