First, did you see the thread from Fernando, that ended with the message:
--
Fernando de Olivei Sun Sep 15 17:29  156/6529  \
 [blfs-dev] Can print - again, but... (was: Cannot print -

? There, Fernando summarises (AIUI) that downgrading to an earlier version of 
cups*, got printing working again for him (with an Epson (?) printer).


So, you might want to retry with the version(s) that Fernando describes. 
Normally I'd install, in this order:
  foomatic-rip, hpijs, gutenprint, ghostscript, cups, cups-filters.
But I've not actually built any lfs/blfs-7.4 stuff yet - haven't even got near 
to it.
Normally I'd never touch hplip: but as it's an HP All-In-One device, so you may 
want to use hplip in order to more-readily use the fuller range of 
functionality 
of the device; but I'd suggest at most doing so only further down the line & 
after you've got basic printing working without hplip. Btw, as/when going the 
hplip route, be sure to get an hplip version that has got the recent security 
issues corrected (ref e.g. the '21 Aug' entry in Slackware changelog 
'www.slackware.com/changelog/current.php?cpu=x86_64' ; and bear in mind the 
likes of the Aug 30 & June 4 entries).


hth,
