How can I install Dymo 4XL in (vault) fedora app?

hello, been using qubes for a while and have set up a canon printer before. Without trouble.

But how can I install Dymo 4XL in (vault) fedora app?
I installed the dymo-cups-drivers to the fedora template (fedora-41-xfce).
sudo dnf -y install dymo-cups-drivers

After I restarted my computer. I attached the dymo 4xl to the “vault” app. Without trouble.

But if I want print something then the software (glabel, libreoffice, firefox) doesn’t see the dymo 4xl.

What can I do? How can I fix it?

Very grateful for any help

I think this is happening: the drivers you installed are not preserved over a shutdown in the vault qube, which is probably a normal AppVM.
You have two options:

  1. install the drivers in the template of the vault qube
  2. install the dymo-cups-drivers rpm every time you start the vault qube. Assuming that the vault has no Internet access, you have to download the dymo-cups-drivers rpm together with any/all dependencies, copy the rpms somewhere under /rw/config, and edit /rw/config/rc.local to install the rpm(s).

Thank you. But read back please! I did the first option.
I said - “I installed the dymo-cups-drivers to the fedora template (fedora-41-xfce).”

That is the template of the vault qube.

For vault qube, on his management menu, under applications press “Refresh applications”.
It solve your issue?

If drivers don’t have GUI, you should fresh run vault qube and check drivers from appvm terminal:

sudo dnf list --installed | grep dymo

Thank you. I refreshed it and it doesn’t solve the issue. I checked also the driver from appvm terminal. And the driver is installed.

Did you enable cups service for your vault qube in its Qube Settings?

Thank you. Yes. It doesn’t solve the issue.

(I installed it in a debian appvm. And it works without problem. But it doesn’t work in fedora appvm.)
