Set up a new printer, after one agent got stuck

The poster bought his first printer and wanted an agent to set it up. After 24 hours of permission and configuration problems with OpenClaw, he switched to Hermes and says he was further along within 15 minutes. He still plans to give OpenClaw another go.

The lesson: If one agent keeps failing on setup, trying another can be faster than fixing it.

Copy-paste setup

Set up my new [PRINTER MODEL] on my [MAC OR WINDOWS] computer over Wi-Fi. Find the right driver on the maker's support site, walk me through any step that needs a button on the printer, and print a test page. Tell me before you install anything.
