"Subject:" says "EPSON ET M 1120"
AFAICT it's a monochrome printer from 2019 with some kind of ink tank.
Given the timescale, it probably supports driverless printing.

The EPSON ET M1120 does not come with enough intelligence to be certified as AirPrintint-capable. Therefore, it may or may not be be a driverless device. The printer would need to be queried and its attributes examined to make a decision. -- Brian.

If you still have issues with your printer, I strongly advise you to ask on the German mailing list, or whichever mailing list speaks your primary language. I don't think anyone on this list is interested in continuing to offer help to you.

The last epson I had that worked with linux was a 4 color C82, well over a decade ago. Then it looks as if they started making windows only printers because all the normal printer stuff was moved from the driver in the printer and put into the windows driver, leaving only the ability to put a drop of the chosen color at the chosen xy spot on the paper in the printer. That and the constant battle to keep the nozzle unclogged got tiresome and limited the last printer I bought to about 2 months life. So that was replaced by a Brother color laser, which worked well for around 4 years, then slowly lost its corona wire voltage, an easy enough to diagnose problem for me as I am a CET, but brother refused to sell me a board despite the fact that I am a CET, fully capable of handling that high voltage item. So I brought home their biggest inkjet. That was about 8 years ago, and it is still pumping out full color images on paper up to tabloid size. A huge device, its also a scanner for 11x17 tabloid. I also have a much faster HLL2320dw a B&W laser that does duplex on copy paper at 19 pages a minute. And running on linux, using the drivers they supply, both run to their full capabilities. Obviously I am now a Brother fan and I believe in supporting the makers who support us. Glaringly obvious in my previous post. But apparently this person doesn't want to admit a mistake was made, and the only way to solve it is to run an all windows house at much more cost than buying another printer that is supported would be. Brother's consumables cost less per page than epson so you get the difference back over time and reams of paper. This may be a duplicate of what wallmart had for sale at $31.95 3 or 4 years ago, and which I saw the epson label and drove the cart right on by.

I'll leave that to you, if you want to try. Boot went fine, but it is worth mentioning that grub-update decided that the "5.10.0-21-amd63-kg" copy of the 5.10.0-21-amd64 kernel should be the default grub entry. -- Hackers are free people.

Oh, so it's update-grub calling update-initramfs, which could complicate things. Quite honestly, I don't see why you want to make what are essentially backup files into part of the working set for both Grub and initramfs, meaning they have to process duplicate files. Any time you have a set of files that you're happy with, why not just copy them to another directory, like /boot/backups/, adding suitable suffixes. With Grub's flexibility, it's very easy to boot from those copies instead. Press e at the blue screen, and tweak the filenames. If you forget where they are or what they're called, press c instead and go hunting with ls. Cheers, David.

In addition to what David wrote, why are you not using the backup facility of initramfs instead of doing it manually ? $ cat /etc/initramfs-tools/update-initramfs.conf [...] # # backup_initramfs [ yes | no ] # # Default is no # If set to no leaves no .bak backup files. backup_initramfs=yes [...] > > Suddenly, update-initramfs insists in trying to first update > initrd.....-knowngood which of course fails because there are no > underling file with that name.
