-from a fresh Bunsenlabs install to a working HP Laserjet 1012 (Feb. 2025)-
Hey there,
i once had this Hp 1012 running in linux. It wasnt perfect but more achievable than in windows...
I cant find good instructions.
I tried [sudo apt install hplip-gui] and then [sudo hp-plugin](as well as using "sudo su -" instead of sudo).
But it should be more like "hplip" i guess and i need some help now ;-/
Have a nice day

Reading package lists... Done
There were problems during the update.
Press "d" for details (q to quit)
is the output. (Btw its called "install printing support", not "configure printer" like in your picture; just saying)
Didnt work, but im happy about the automated printer configuration option now; has been a while...
Kind regards, hope to get more help on this ;-)

Yes, it will look like this when the printer is installed.
Try these sources
inxi -r

adding repsitories via [sudo add-apt-repository] would place it where?
i suppose im supposed to add them in those various sources lists, like in your bunsenlabs as shown?

I have no idea, as I always carry out such operations on foot.

Sorry, but i fail your iq test
"Be humble, be cool, dance techno-style to heavy metal music."

This has nothing to do with iq.
The paths of the files are at the top of the output of inxi.
So, open thunar - /etc/apt/ and right-click ‘Open as root’ in the free area.
Root now edits the files.
You must comment out all your previous sources (#) (except vivaldi)
Then enter the new ones in
sources.list (for debian)
/etc/apt/sources.list.d
bunsen.list (for bunsen)
and debian-bookworm-backports.list
Save and apt update.

Same here, except I have an extension "edit file as root" that I use.
I'm a GUI guy most of the time. I will say this is the first time i've heard it referred to as "doing it on foot".

Just in general
system-config-printer
has always been helpful to me. That and hplip were really all I needed last time I set up an HP printer.

Did pressing "d" give any useful info?
Anyway, try
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
in a terminal.

Hi unklar, i got what u mean with "on foot" now.
i open the document etc/apt/sources.list, there are three non-hastaged lines
deb https://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb https://deb.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
deb https://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-updates main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
i hashtag all three of them. i added the three mentioned (but without the numbers and double stop). i saved the file.
in the folder sources-list.d, i find two docs, bunsen.list and vivaldi list. i open only the bunsen.list.
there is only one line
deb https://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian boron main
which i hashtag. i add the mentioned lines (yes, redundant, i noticed now.) and save.
the bookworm file is not in sources.list.d
i should create it, right?
_______________
thanks for all answers, once i did unklar's thing, ill check out the next comment

Luckily, marens comment led me back to where i started :DD
Now its all proper and set up *high-ten*
Thank you all
Solved and maybe merge my monologue in the end or delete it^^

^ I'm glad you made it.
You can just add [SOLVED] to the topic title if everything is fine.
This makes it easier to search if someone has a similar problem.

EDIT: I can use gimp to change contrast, which bypasses the driver issues that occur when high detail pages need to be printed.
(..Hey again,
just a small request post SOLVED. It seems like only pages of low detail, like a normal letter, can be printed.
Whenever i try to print an image e.g. a page i had to scan first, it prints a third of that page and then goes blinking in a way driver issue might be adressed--
Any advice for a programm i can change the contrast value with?
I cant do that from libreoffice...
I imagine, removing uneccessary scanner contrast could work)
