Thank you for the link. I have downloaded the .run file and will reinstall Ubuntu 18.04 and run hplip-3.18.4.run as instructed. Will keep in touch.

Intel i5-2520m 2.5GHz 64-bit CPU, 8GiB RAM, 298GiB hard drive, DVD writer, Ethernet and WiFi connections. Attached my LaserJet, Ubuntu ran some software to install the printer (probably trying to run the HP software) and /usr/lib/cups/filter/hpcups crashed with the assertion failure: free(): invalid pointer. Rebooted, installed package hplip-gui, ran sudo hp-setup – it needed to ask me (the user) some questions. That kept it happy and it ran successfully. I ended up with two similarly named HP Printers. Printed to the right one and it worked. Renamed the other one to avoid confusion whilst printing.
