I’ve noticed a general sentiment that printing on Linux is (or at least was) extremely cumbersome and difficult. Why is that?

    Recently ran into an issue with Endeavour OS where the built in printer program would give errors when trying to add my network ecotank printer.

    Tried using cups terminal and it worked the first time, and is still working weeks later.

    So some of the GUI printer apps that distros ship with have issues apparently, but I don’t know the extent of it.
