Hello,
Do you mean that your friend has a printer that is currently notsupported by hplip-minimal, but will be supported soon? (Notice that this is less a question of Guix, but rather of the availability of free drivers.)
No, that is not my question. At the moment he uses Linux Mint and I don't know how much he is able and has time to learn to configure Guix. So I want to inform myself beforehand in order to take the right decisions and help him to get Guix working on a new laptop.
