Tails Printer - Failed to Connect Problem

Whenever I try to set up/install a printer in tails, I get a "Failed to Connect" error when I go to add the new printer in settings.

The most recent printer I tried was an HP 2130 from Wal Mart.

Am I doing something wrong? Any help here is appreciated.

Wouldn't using a printer on tails generate a OPSEC gap? Especially if the printer has fax capabilities?

Had same error. Tagging to see if someone has answers. Thanks

Try /r/Tails, read through the docs at https://tails.boum.org/doc/sensitive_documents/printing_and_scanning/index.en.html , search and possibly post a message to the mailing list at https://tails.boum.org/support/tails-support/index.en.html , and if it seems to be a bug make a ticket at https://labs.riseup.net/code/projects/tails
