HP Printer
I can't get my hp printer rto install in Blend. I have installed hplip [brian@blend ~]$ sudo system install hplip but get the error sudo: hp-setup: command not found. I installed hplip in a debian container. when I run hp-setup it finds my printer ok with manual discovery from ip address. I get the error Printer queue setup failed. Error: successful-ok-ignored-or-substituted-attributes after I inter my login credentials..
I've googled, tried to search the docs, etc. I can't find anything to help out with this one. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am running in a VM.

what's your hypervisor
if it's virtualbox or vmware, enable virtual printer in their respective settings
this will use the printer configured on your host
I'm running Boxes, so it shoudl be QEMU
not sure if that has a setting for virtual printers
you might be able to add one via virt-manager
on your host
I haven't found one yet. But I haven't given up!! Vm's are great, but a hemorrhoid @ the same time
I uninstalled Boxes and I'm installing QEMU-Full to see if that helps any. I never had much luck with virtualbox or vmware. Host is ArcoLinux (Arch)
boxes should work with qemu
and anyway you'll also want
virt-manager and virt-viewer
me personally, I have a proxmox server and virt-viewer for windows
and qemu-full is a lot of shit
and locally I use Hyper-VAlready downloaded virt-manager. It couldn't see the boxes vm's. I'll grab virt-viewer if it isn't in full.
Looks like 42 pkgs. Lol
