This started soon after updating the KDE Neon basis to 20.04.

Note: 
On my Ubuntu 20.04 computer I had for a shot perion the same problems. But this got resolved within a week.
Comment 4 Christoph Feck 2020-09-10 10:19:34 UTC
Could you ask Ubuntu developers which fix they applied so that it can be included in neon?
Comment 5 Michael Josenhans 2020-09-10 12:11:47 UTC
I am no longer sure, whether it is really fixed at Ubuntu. Sometimes it works on KDE Neon and sometimes not. Same on Ubuntu.
Comment 6 Michael Josenhans 2020-09-16 20:59:37 UTC
I have the printer connected via USB and WLAN. 

I was the printer get working on WLAN again after deleting the printer within CUPS (In browser: http://localhost:631) and installed it again with hp-setup command-line tool.

I was not able to reinstall the USB driver with the command-line tool hp-setup.
Here I got the error message: "Unable to communicate with the device. Please check the device and try again."

The same happened with the same printer with my Ubuntu 20.04. laptop.
