I had this working but now after a Linux reinstall I cannot get it to work again. :-( Using Samsung/HP's proprietary driver package at (https://support.hp.com/ us-en/drivers/selfservice/samsung-clx-4195-color-laser-multifunction-printer- series/16462344) the driver installs the printer into CUPS. system-config-printer's GUI shows a CLP-300 printer added; everything looks cool so far -- but it doesn't work. system-config-printer shows the printer's device URI is "mfp:/dev/mfp4" but under /dev there is no mfp* devices. As I remember, the previous working printer config used a URI of "USB- something" indicating that the printer was connected via a USB cable (which it is). So my question is: How do I detect a printer connected via USB? What is the USB URI for such a printer? -- "It's easier for our software to compete with Linux when there's piracy than when there's not." -- Bill Gates, Fortune Magazine, July 17 2007.

On the computer on which the printer is connected, open in browser http://localhost:631/admin enter - your username and password (in case of sudo) or - "root" username and password Kind regards Georgi

The core of my problem was that the printer was not being seen on the USB bus. Playing around with cables, various USB plugs/ports, etc. I got the printer to show up on a "lsusb" command. Once that was done the proprietary drivers "saw" the printer, the KDE desktop similarly saw the desktop and either the drivers or KDE configured things. Similarly, CUPS on the localhost now sees things too. So all is well. Now just to modify CUPS to allow anything on the LAN to print to the printer... -- "To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Republican President Theodore (Teddy) Roosevelt.
