CUPS printer on Debian 11.6
Fresh installation of Debian 11.6 on Dell Vostro 200 (Intel Core 2). The Vostro 200 is being added to a home LAN with Debian 11.6 running on a nondescript desktop (amd64) and a HP Laserjet P3015 Postscript (Ethernet). The amd64 machine works perfectly with the P3015.

(2) Should I install the P3015 as generic Postscript printer? (3) I cannot make sense of the new CUPS "driverless" scheme.
