@Aaron:

No success.

- I powered on the Laserjet 1018 and connected it to my laptop.

- I ran the command sudo hp-setup -i (I could only run it as root). I answered all questions with the suggested answers.

- Afterwards, I started HPLIP Toolbox as user, through the menu: System - Preferences - HPLIP Toolbox.
Still the same error: ERROR: Device not found. Please check connection and power-on device. Again, HPLIP Toolbox was only partially functional.

- I started HPLIP Toolbox as root, with the terminal command: sudo hp-toolbox
Now, as before, HPLIP Toolbox gave no errors and was fully functional.

I hope that HPLIP Toolbox can become fully functional when accessed through the menu (as user therefore). That is much easier.

Hope this helps.

Greetz, Pjotr.
