The desktop-file is default:

The MATE problem is solvable by using dbus-launch (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mate-panel/+bug/1810745/comments/8).

But this method does not fix problem on Unity. Here the problem is solvable by installation of 3.18.12 from hplip site as discribed in https://askubuntu.com/a/1056078/66509 .
