Bug Description
After I installed “hplip-3.18.7” I started getting the following error message every time the computer boots into UBUNTU 18.04. “No system tray detected on this system. Unable to start, exiting.” I have no idea what this means or if it will impact printing?
I ran the script "hp-doctor" in a terminal. It gave the following summary:
error: This distro (i.e ubuntu 18.04) is either deprecated or not yet supported.
The diagnosis is limited on unsupported platforms. Do you want to continue?(y=yes*, n=no):
warning: Fail to read ppd=/etc/
warning: Insufficient permission to access file /etc/cups/
warning: Could not complete Queue(s) configuration check
Checking for HP Properitery Plugin's....
No plug-in printers are configured.

I reinstalled and the script appeared to run as it always has. I used the following in terminal:
cd /tmp && wget http://
sh hplip-3.18.7.run
When I got to the end the script reported:
Gtk-Message: 13:26:08.041: Failed to load module "canberra-
No systemtrayicon available
And then a little while later the following poped up in terminal:
error: No system tray detected on this system. Unable to start, exiting.
I hope this helps.
