As a starting point, can you confirm that the `net-print/cups-filters` package is installed? (Cf. News item dated 2023-11-20, "CUPS no longer directly depends on its filters".)

maybe update https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Driverless_printing ?

Yes, cups-filters was installed:

Code: Select all

workstation ~ # eix net-print/cups-filters
[I] net-print/cups-filters
     Available versions:  1.28.17-r2^t 2.0.0^t 2.0.0-r1^t {dbus exif +foomatic jpeg ldap pclm pdf perl png +postscript test tiff zeroconf}
     Installed versions:  2.0.0-r1^t(06:35:42 AM 08/01/2024)(foomatic)

This PC has 3 hard drives. Gentoo is on sda, Arch is on sdb. This is the screenshot of http://localhost:631/printers in Arch.
The instructions at https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Driverless_printing are

Code: Select all

lpadmin -p foobar -E -v ipp://192.168.178.23/ipp -m everywhere

I am going to install again on Gentoo with the command:

Code: Select all

lpadmin -p foobar -E -v ipp://192.168.54.9/ipp/print -m everywhere

And, that worked! It is printing!
