GNU/Linux Fedora 40 Installing Wi-fi Printer – QuickStart Guide
Hi! This tutorial will guide you step-by-step on How to Set up and Configure a Wireless Printer in Fedora 40 GNU/Linux Desktop.
Especially relevant: to Setup Network Printer in Fedora 40 first we have to Install Printer Driver on System.
Most Network Printers support a Protocol known as Bonjour, which is a combination of zero-configuration networking (“ZeroConf”), multicast DNS (mDNS), and DNS service discovery (DNS-SD) standards.
So the first attempt for an Universal configuration is the Zeroconf Bonjour Avahi Linux Service implementation.
Else if you are principally interested to Share a Network Printer with Windows Clients you may instead follow instructions about the Samba Printing Sharing.
Finally, to Print over Wi-fi with Apple iOS and macOS Systems on this Printer then see How to Install AirPrint support on Fedora.
