Dell - Linux - ChromeOS - HP printer

Good day,

I’m not quite sure if I can capture every detail of this situation, but I will certainly try. My printer is an HP LaserJet Pro, which shows up as LBP6670 UFR when connected.
It was previously hooked up to an older machine running Windows 10, where we also ran into some minor installation hurdles.

Now, whenever I attempt to send a document to print, it simply spits out a single page containing a line about "GPL Ghostscript" before churning through several blank pages, which I eventually have to stop manually.

I’ve searched through the driver database, but nothing for this specific model seems to exist; the closest I could find was an LBP6670 PPD, though even that doesn't seem to work.

Since I don't have anyone in my immediate circle who is particularly well-versed in Linux, I find myself turning to this community for assistance.
If it would be helpful, I can provide further technical details via private message to avoid cluttering this thread with unnecessary information.

Thank you in advance.🙂

So, I did a little digging online, and it looks like ChromeOS is basically a derivative of Linux, kind of like how Android functions
where most hardware should theoretically work, yet your printer is just being stubborn and refusing to cooperate.
It’s highly likely we're looking at a missing driver issue, or perhaps Ghostscript didn't quite finish its installation process correctly.

You really have two ways to tackle this. 🙂
Either you hunt down a version of Linux that comes with everything pre-loaded, or you go the fresh route
by installing Windows 10 along with the specific drivers for your printer.
If you want to try the first route, I'd suggest putting together a bootable USB drive with either Linux Mint or maybe an Ubuntu build.
Otherwise, you could just grab a fresh Windows 10 ISO, install it, make sure those printer drivers are set up, and
see if that finally gets things moving.

Thanks 😸

I'll give it a shot and let you know how it goes
