I have a Dell WD15 docking station, and one of my laptops is a bit older so it does not have a USB-c port. When connecting that hp laptop (Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS) I get the usb and audio connections, but there is no signal for the monitors. Is there a way to make this setup work, or is this hopeless?

duplex printing does not work in ubuntu 21.10 within applications like LibreOffice, Firefox or PDF-document viewer.
