Fresh installation of Debian 11.6 on Dell Vostro 200 (Intel Core 2).
The Vostro 200 is being added to a home LAN with Debian 11.6 running
on a nondescript desktop (amd64) and a HP Laserjet P3015 Postscript
(Ethernet). The amd64 machine works perfectly with the P3015.
The printer configuration on both machines appears identical:
DRIVER: HP LaserJet Series PCL 6 CUPS (grayscale)
Connection: socket://192.168.1.211:9100
(1) The printer installs on Vostro 200 but does not print.
(2) Should I install the P3015 as generic Postscript printer?
(3) I cannot make sense of the new CUPS "driverless" scheme.
Does it make my Postscript printers obsolete?

Symptoms of not printing? Provide outputs for 'lpstat -t'
