I also have a problem installing Panasonic KX-MB1500 on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Drivers taken from https://panasonic.net/cns/pcc/support/fax/common/table/linuxdriver.html#SD As a printer and a copy device it works. Installation itself seemed unproblematic. In the past, version 14., it has worked, it failed in 16 but I have not tried hard.
lsusb gives:

Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0bda:8179 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8188EUS 802.11n Wireless Network Adapter
sudo sane-find-scanner gives:

sudo scanimage -L gives nothing.
The end of my /lib/udev/rules.d/60-libsane1.rules looks like
