Odd thing, but if you replaced it, it probably got a new ip address that it sees as something other than the original device. Might check to delete the old and add the new.

I went through this replacing my home dhcp server with another, and let most general things reset. Broke all my home automation stuff that that rely upon things in one fashion or another. Dumb IOT/chinese crapgadgets.

My wife’s Chromebook died (broken charging port) so we got a new HP Chromebook. The old one worked perfectly with CUPS.

Now our printer shows up in CUPS, but if I try to set up a print, Chromebook says it can’t connect.

Any theories about why this computer won’t connect?

Google’s Cloud Print worked for her Google account in Chrome on a macBook. That same instance shows on the Chromebook as “ready to print,” but is not offered in the print dialog.

I added a Brother app on the Chromebook, but it couldn’t see anything.

I’ve been through all this for hours, repeatedly. Rebooted the Chromebook, even reloaded the account.
