Good suggestion.

Myself, I have two laptops with each the same Kubuntu 24.04 LTS system, as
well as similar specs. I can use both laptops anyway.
Additionally, I have another testing possibility nearby.

Anyway, so far, it looks like a printer issue. I do have the right driver.
Also the printer usb cable is new and seemingly OK. As soon as I give a
print command, the printer reacts seemingly properly. WIthin a reasonable
time, a blanc page goes through the printer. The printer header seemingly
functions OK. There is also really still enough ink in the 4 basic colour
cartridges. However, the page remains blanc. Really nothing appears on it.
My educated guess so far: nozzles of the printer have been blocked by dry
ink.

Yours.
Bas.
