I am trying to get my HP Officejet 8020 to scan on Kubuntu 20.04, but I keep getting the error:

error: SANE: Error during device I/O (code=9)

I've ran hp-check and everything seems fine, I've followed the instructions on HP LaserJet AllInOne, scan does not work, but to no avail. I've reinstalled HPLIP, both in the discover app and the latest from the HP website. I've installed and re installed the hp-plugin, but nothing seems to work. Here is the output of hp-check:

Does anyone have any ideas?

I got the same error in Ubuntu 18.04. I solved it in this way:

Finally, I'm able to scan with hp-scan.
