Did you run hp-setup? You may want to re-emerge hplip and read the messages there. I may be forgetting something it said to do. Also, check your error logs. Should be in /var/log. Depends on what logger you use as to the name of it. Mine is messages tho. Post back what you find out from that. May give us a clue. Dale :-) :-)
