After a new install, you may need to horse around with the firewall, so
that the printer is automatically found by the system.  Look for an IPP
(internet printing protocol) checkbox, and tick the client option if
you're printing over the network to a printer (you'd tick the server
checkbox if this computer was serving its directly connected printer to
the rest of the LAN).

CUPS uses IPP.  And there's another service, cups-browsed that needs to
be running for it to find printers (start it going, and set it to
always be enabled).

systemctl start cups-browsed
systemctl enable cups-browsed

For other printer-related networking protocols, look through the rest
of the protocols list in the firewall.  e.g. You may need to tick mdns
if it's involved in finding the printer.

Boilerplate:  All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
There is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see
the messages posted to the mailing list.

Windows tablets are more like suppositories.
