cups cannot connect to server

garyh@HPLap:~$ cups-config --version
2.2.7
garyh@HPLap:~$ lpinfo -v
lpinfo: Bad file descriptor
garyh@HPLap:~$ lpstat -t
scheduler is not running
no system default destination

I was researching and learned the above. My printer-scanner HP 3520 is available via "Simple Scan" from the menu BUT I cannot print anything. I've uninstalled and re-installed HPLIP. Going to the settings-printers only gives option to "connect" and that /run/cups/cups.sock gives me "Cups server error".
Don't know how to proceed now.
