Excellent, thanks. I see that mine is one of the supported devices. I
look forward to trying it out.
I installed and configured the driver as a dnssd service (using the KDE
system settings panel), but I'm getting an error: "Unable to locate
printer".
The dnssd daemon is running, as is systemd-resolved and avahi-daemon.
I've logged out and in again to no effect.
Journalctl shows nothing relevant (using "-g dnssd" or "-g dns-sd").
