I'm on Trisquel8, and have tried to use a printer I have used before
with other GNU/LINUX operating systems without problems.
Because I can't use it with Trisquel8 I have traveled the following path
up to its end:
Trisquel's Main Menu/System/Administration/Printers/Printers-localhost→Help/Troubleshoot/

There I have found a window with the following text:

PRINTING TROUBLESHOOTER

I hope I have posted this in the right place and that it will help other users
and me to solve this problem.

Is there any other solution?

Thank you in advance.

Open your browser, go to URL localhost:631 and set up your printer.
