A suggestion to enable AirPrint for some hp printers about dockerfiles HOT 4 CLOSED

👌I understand，thank you very much😄

from dockerfiles.

So I wonder if there is a way you can add this part to your project. I don’t know about how to programming,I just provide a suggestion and how I solved the AirPrint issue,thanks!

Hello 👋

No I don't think that this driver will ever be part of this project, for different reasons:

1. these drivers are not open-source, their license probably have some restrictive clauses about who can distribute them and how
2. if there is an EULA to accept, it will definitely not be possible to distribute the drivers in this project
3. starting to include support for random proprietary drivers for every printers brands will be very high maintenance for me

Here is the basic rule of thumb: if the driver you need is packaged and distributed by the Debian team, it can be included in this image. Otherwise it won't be.

from dockerfiles.

Now you always have the option to build a new image which will include the drivers you need on the top of this one.
Just create a new Dockerfile and mention this image as a base then add what you need to add.
