Today i had that great idea to setup my HP laser 107w printer on my pc with NixOS. config:
{ config, pkgs, ... }:

First i tried the general printer driver but it just failed but i expected it so i went to my backup which was a driver that worked on Feren OS [ubuntu fork] . It installed normaly and the printer showed up in settings as a normal printer but i could not get it to print even just the test page. So I removed it and⌠well bad things happened. The hp-setup just said that it could not find it and the printer isnt connected (it was) and now it not even show up in the settings when i try to set it up from there. Oh and my config file broke too for some reason with the errors in this file [https://os5.mycloud.com/action/share/e3ed1e65-e52c-43ea-8932-d6b53610ee9e]. I hope someone can help how to get the printer working or just point out what i messed up
when i go to printer status it says: âHp laser 103 107 108 cups insecure filterâ. how i could fix this?
