Ubuntu cannot print on HP deskjet 1510 with cups
I recently upgraded my desktop to Ubuntu 18.04.1. My printer is Deskjet 1510 series PSC ink advantage that is 4 years old.
Different print jobs all start and finish with no result on the printer; just shows job status "Stopped". The hp-check below shows cups is used. Have also seen a message "1filter failed". I have spent days and over 30 emails to ubuntu-users help list with no success. I already downloaded hpcups 3.18.9 but the PPD description still shows 3.17.10 that I do not know how to change.
When I switch to Windows 7 the printer works fine but I only use win7 for my national Tax via browser .
Maybe a PPD for 3.18.9 will fix? I would prefer to work without cups if possible.
Please help an old retired end user.

Thanks and kind regards. Chas

This is free software, and you are welcome to distribute it
under certain conditions. See COPYING file for more details.
Note: hp-check can be run in three modes:
1. Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the
proper dependencies are installed to successfully compile HPLIP.
2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP
supplied tarball has the proper dependencies installed to successfully run.
3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode will check both of the above cases (both compile- and run-time
dependencies).
Check types:
a. EXTERNALDEP - External Dependencies
b. GENERALDEP - General Dependencies (required both at compile and run time)
c. COMPILEDEP - Compile time Dependencies
d. [All are run-time checks]
