Please send me the output of (run as root):

ls -lA /var/run/hplip

dpkg-statoverride --list | grep hp

And also, please install the lsof package if you don't have it yet. Then run
(as root):

lsof -n -p $(cat  /var/run/hplip/hpiod.pid)

and also 

cat /var/run/hplip/hpiod.port

In the output of the lsof command, hpiod MUST be listening on a TCP socket
like this: "TCP 127.0.0.1:<somenumber> (LISTEN)".

That <somenumber> MUST match what was inside the /var/run/hplip/hpiod.port
file.
