Using a more recent .deb version of hplip than standard for that OS

  • 772

I am running 18.04 up to date, with hplip 3.17.10 installed. According to package search this is the standard one for this OS. However, I recently purchased a new HP multi-function printer. To operate the scanner, hp website says it requires hplip 3.20.5 or higher.

There is a version 3.21.06 listed in the package search for Ubuntu 21.10. Can that .deb be used successfully with 18.04? Or another solution that's not too in depth?
