I had quite some difficulty getting "hp-setup" to configure a HP Color
LaserJet Pro MFP M277dw to allow scanning + "hp-toolbox" to allow scanning,
status check, etc. on Debian 10.

See:

I found several things which together got scanning and hp-toolbox
working for me with my HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277dw. I hope the
proceedure below is of help to someone else.

1. Fix the source for the gpg key to avoid the problem with the pgp.mit.edu
server:

   sudo cp -a /usr/share/hplip/base/validation.py
/usr/share/hplip/base/validation.py.ORIG

   vim /usr/share/hplip/base/validation.py

   # replace pgp.mit.edu with pool.sks-keyservers.net on line 44

2. After getting the plugin to install using "hp-plugin" as a regular user
and the root password when requested, the software still complained...

3. It seems that hplip expects the libraries in a different location than
where they are getting installed:

   find /usr/lib -name "*sane*" | grep hp2000S

   sudo ln -s /usr/lib /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
   sudo ln -s /usr/lib64 /usr/lib64/x86_64-linux-gnu
