On a F33 fresh install I only had to to this as root:
dnf update (important; needed so that last step works properly)
dnf install gcc-c++ cmake cups-devel
git clone https://github.com/pdewacht/brlaser
cd brlaser
cmake .
make
make install
dnf history undo last (as I no longer need the stuff needed to build;
SSDs are expensive!)
Then I plugged the USB cable and printer was configured automatically
(and working perfectly).
Worked for me, although it defaulted to single-sided.
I added "another" printer with the name and configuration I wanted.
That also worked.
Note that, as expected, "make install" requires root privileges.
When installing from source,
I prefer to manipulate ownership.
That way possibly buggy/hostile code does not have free reign.
