Printer HP LaserJet P1102w

I’ve installed distro Big, that is Manjaro based, however, I can’t make my printer HP LaserJet P1102w work in it. The system recognizes the printer and install it automatically, but it doesn’t work, allways is as it was paused and I can’t change this status. I’m a noob in this system to the point I had installed Manjaro in place of Mint (that was presenting some problems in my PC), but I gave up it and have installed Big because it is easier to use, so I apologize if it seems to be a fool question, but I really need some help since I’m not able to work without this printer…

first check if the package cups-filters is installed, if its not installed, install it, and reboot
if its installed, check this possible solution

Yes, this distro has Cups installed by default, including cups-filters.

Do a clean install of Manjaro - this forum does not support unknown spin-offs

Use the hp laserjet 4 driver - it works for nearly everything.

Allthough @linux-aarhus has a valid point, the possible solution lies in search the forum…
