Hello G, Thank you for your attention to my problem. Please, close the ticket, basically because it is no longer relevant. Somehow I was able to make printing work on my Ubuntu installation. In the meantime I have made a distribution upgrade to 18.04. I must say that I also encountered a printing problem, which eventually I was able to solve on my HP laptop installation (most recent hp-15, 64-bit machine).
However, we have an older, i386 desktop machine. Printing worked well with 16.04, but after the distribution upgrade to 18.04 (which went flawlessly) I have not been able to make printing work to an HP printer (new printer, not old as the computer). I searched the AskUbuntu and other sites, but so far the problem is not resolved. Unfortunately, the only way to print from that desktop is to boot it into Vindoooz Xp (this is how old the machine is!). I'm a supporter of Open Source systems, and am grateful to have Linux and the Ubuntu distribution. Hopefully this message is my modest contribution to make Ubuntu better.
