That's not "a" command. That's 2 commands, unrelated and joined
together for no good reason.

[1]

sudo apt-get update

Refresh package database. Good idea, but not essential.

`apt-get` is the old way, and suggests these instructions are very
old, though. Still works fine though.

[2]

sudo apt -y install photoprint

That's the business end.

It tells "apt" to install a package called "photoprint" answering "y"
(yes) to any questions.

That's all good but you need to know the name is right. You could check:

apt search photoprint

But the problem is that it's really old now. It's gone.

It was still in 18.04:
https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/photoprint

You might be able to get that package and install it but it won't be easy... :-(
