Yes, I did. I reinstalled Ubuntu 18.04 and ran hplip-3.18.4-plugin.run
As is my wont, I took screenshots during the process and saved the
logfiles. I have attached those files to this message.

I did some detective work regarding the error message "Gtk-Message Failed
to load module canberra-gtk-module". It can be apparently fixed by
installing the package libcanberra-gtk-module

It _might_ be a good idea to add libcanberra-gtk-module to the list of
package dependencies. That might clear up one problem.

I am still learning Python and, as I learn more, I'll be better equipped to
try and help solve these problems.

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.
