Yes, but you should really be using this guideline for posting images - https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/introductions/forum-posting-guidelines/
It looks like at some point you've uninstalled cups. Do this:
Code:
sudo apt-get install cupsrestart your pc and try again.
We'll also need to know where that picture came from. If you don't supply as many details as possible when responding, it's more difficult for us to help you. Thank you.

It came from me.
What should I do next after installing the cups?
I am now trying to reinstall the hplip.
But, I still got this error: Package install command failed with error code 100

Please read my post carefully, I tell you what to do after installing cups. You seem to be skipping over this help thread without reading all the information people are providing for you here.

Other people have posted help for you here too. Have you tried their methods?

If you haven't yet.. As Jerry mentions check the manual https://www.linuxliteos.com/manual/hardware.html#printer
-- Your device is supported (from manual - http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/supported_devices/combined.html)
Process specifically for HP - https://www.linuxliteos.com/manual/hardware.html#hpprinters
So okay, I've tried these.
The first one, when I plugged the printer. It doesn't give me any dialog. I even checked the Printers-localhost, nothing's there (I tried this when my printer is plugged).
The second one, I am trying to find my exact model (Hp Deskjet Ink Advantage 3635). Unfortunately, I didn't find it.
The third one, I tried to install it.
This is the result that I did on the third one: linuxlite@linuxlite-Aspire-5560:~$ sudo apt-get install hplip-gui
