ippusbxd crashing on boot up in Focal Fossa

Package :
ippusbxd:
  Installed: 1.34-2ubuntu1
  Candidate: 1.34-2ubuntu1

Desktop : HP Pavilion 590
Printer : HP Envy 6230

Work-around, if printing over LAN is not required, is to mask the ippusbxd service in systemctl:

sudo systemctl mask ippusbxd@001:003.service *
sudo systemctl mask ippusbxd@.service

and remove crash logs in /var/crash

* check your bus/device nos via :
systemctl --failed

Thanks, Sebastian, the apport report has been uploaded.
~ FYI my first attempt to log the bug got rejected (not authorised) when:
  - I ran <ubuntu-bug ippusbxd> from AltF2 (which does create the data you need, right?)
  - And attempted to upload the /var/crash log. Is that not allowed?
So I tried later on filing the bug directly, which did work...
I don't do this stuff often enough to learn the in's and outs ;-0

Attach crash log.

Updated details. I can confirm this issue is not isolated to one PC.
Same issue occurs on 2 other laptops, when they are connected by USB cable to HP Envy 6200 series printer.

Backtrace output of the CoreDump in the attached crash report file. ippusbxd and ippusbxd-dbgsym packages must be installed.
