Browser, version and operating system: Rasbian OS.
How to reproduce/previous actions?
Adding a printer using cups vai lpadmin -p printername -m always triggers errors. The drivers are marked as deprecated and won't work in future cups versions. Also, the system can't copy the PPD file.
What occurred?
I need to use an everywhere driver to add the printer since I don’t have a PPD file for it.
What was expected?
To add the printer with an everywhere driver because I lack the PPD file.

I need a bit more information to help you. Could you please specify which printer model you are trying to set up?
