When I used Mint about 6 years ago, I sometimes got into trouble with Mint's weird update system. They were also telling users to reinstall instead of updating when there's a new LTS, which is kinda ridiculous IMO.
I'm probably not the typical Mint user, though.
They recently made a tool that handle the update to a new LTS. I upgraded from mint 20 to 21 and it went very well aside from the the printer stopping. Tried everything and it still doesn't work. It's not even a modern DRM galore bullshit printer, It's an ancient canon lbp6000 laser printer so I honestly don't know why it stopped.
If anyone got any idea how to fix it, I'd highly appreciate it.
I’m so sorry… it seems like your printer has daemons in it…
