Hello, I've been a Windows user since 1998. I've also always been
interested in Linux versions, mainly through live CDs and then later
through installation on older machines, especially since the end of
Windows 7, to install them on the PCs of people over 75 who discovered
computers late and don't have the desire or the means to upgrade their
PCs.
I often have the same problem: installing their (not always so) old
printer that Linux doesn't recognize. After a lot of research, I came
across Gutenprint, and I thank you for it. Honestly, I haven't found
an ideal version of a Linux OS (Zorin, in the end) that would be
capable of doing so without impacting the understanding of the people
in question, except perhaps Chrome OS in Flex version, where they have
everything they need to consult the sites essential to the functioning
of an average citizen: a browser they know with their photo and
document universe and a natural connection to their Android phone and
nothing else! But you know all that. My question is: Could gutenprint
be installed in Chrome OS flex and how to do it?
