How to get the HP OfficeJet 3833 to work on Fedora 33

The usual screenshots are missing I am sorry for that! Anyways here we go 🙂

First make sure Fedora is updated, you this by typing:

sudo dnf upgrade 

After Fedora is updated type the following:

sudo dnf install hplip hplip-gui

There is no need to set up the HP OfficeJet 3833 any further, it will work immediately if you connect it with an USB AB cable to your laptop.

For scanning you do need to install additional software. Below are the instructions for installing the scanning software:

su
dnf install simple-scan

The printer’s user manual can be found here.
