Jiggle the USB cable.  Try another cable.

Are you using drivers from HP or from Apple?

A google search on "apple and HP printers" might help.  At Apple's
Support pages, there is a general topic "Printing issues and Mac OS X
10.4 Tiger," also this:
http://www.apple.com/support/tiger/printing/
and "Troubleshooting printing issues in Mac OS X" at:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1465
