It is and might suit a user if the device supports IPP-over-USB. It is doable on Debian but not straightforward to set up. Please see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=909564 and https://wiki.debian.org/CUPSDriverlessPrinting?action=show&redirect=DriverlessPrinting#shortippusbxd https://wiki.debian.org/CUPSDriverlessPrinting?action=show&redirect=DriverlessPrinting#ippusbxd The ability to scan, if it exists, is also lost. I'd be inclined to guide a user down a driver path. Regards, Brian.
