HP Device manager : Plug-in install failed

My HP Laserjet Pro MFP M26nw worked fine with Ubuntu 16.04 but since I installed 18.04 only the print function works, I cannot get the scan function to work.



Simple Scan says "failed to scan" and the HP Device manager tells me: Driver required.



Clicking next returns: Failed to install plugin.



Running hp-plugin from the terminal and downloading returns: failed to load module "canberra-gtk.module". Plug-in installation failed.



Does anyone know how to solve this? I have the latest version of HPLIP.

    Possible duplicate of How should I install HPLIP binary/proprietary plugin/driver for my HP printer or printer+scanner? (as you device really needs plugin). About Canberra -install it with sudo apt install libcanberra-gtk-module libcanberra-gtk3-module.

  • This is what the terminal returns:Plug-in version: 3.19.1 Installed HPLIP version: 3.19.1 Number of files to install: 64 Plugin installation failed error: Python gobject/dbus may be not installed error: Plug-in install failed.
