HPlip was working fine on my Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit then just seemed to
disappear.
None of these solutions worked for me.

Title:

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed

This is related to this bug

After `sudo apt-get -f install`, it removed cups and marked a bunch of
cups packages as unnecessary
`sudo apt-get autoremove` removed them.
Now when I try to re-install cups, I get this error:
```
☀ sudo apt-get install cups cups-daemon cups-core-drivers
Mod master
