Did that, no luck.

Went to that page, was told that the current version is 3.18.5.

Trying to be helpful, I decided to wipe the hard drive and do a complete
reinstall of Ubuntu 3.18.5. Did that. Ran Software Updater to install any
Ubuntu updates that were pending.

Ran "sh hplip-3.18.5" and it didn't work. For more information I have
attached two log files and a screenshot.

By the way... I used to be a programmer and recently brushed up on my bash
skills and will be starting to learn Python this week. If there is anything
I can do to help, let me know.

BW,


Ian

Title:
  /usr/lib/cups/filter/hpcups assertion failure when plugging in a HP
  LaserJet M1132 MFP printer/scanner

Status in HPLIP:
  In Progress
Status in hplip package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Installed Ubuntu 18.04 64-bit on lenovo ThinkPad T420 (hostname:
  newton). 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.
