My printer (HP LaserJet MFP M232e-M237e series) also has a web server on it; yours may also. Once the thing is set up and running, you can use CUPS to manage it. I will guess that it is a so-called "driverless" printer. If so you may want avahi on your computers so they can detect and use it painlessly. -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/
