I managed to install it manually and I can print now. Thanks to all of you for the support.

I have found the cups printer drivers to work better for HP printers.

Edit: That printer is listed as Laserjet m14-m17 in the HP section.

No I ran the hplip I just installed. How do I install the CUPS version?

When I try to print it tells me it's a generic printer not a HP M14-M17 series.

No because I am a little reluctant to use the cli method as I don't know how to backup my panel.

I am back on MX Linux. My equalizer solution was simple. I stuck a car equalizer under my monitor foot and run it off my desktop power supply. It gives me 7 bands, adjustable by knobs as sound is playing. I do appreciate all of your efforts to help me.
