clues :
- check permissions : ls -l /dev/usb/lp0  , i had a report of it being
root.root instead of root.lp (though i guess the user system was
experimental)

- do you have hpijs and foomatic-filters-ppds installed ?

- you should reconfigure your printer queue to use the "hp cups backend"
driver . using gnome-cups-manager or http://localhost:631 choose hp:/...
instead of usb:/... at the first stage of the configuration (you can have
muliple print queue for the same printer : keeping your usb:// configured
one and configure a new one to use hp://).
This give access to more verbose error reports.

Alos check /var/log/cups (and if needed up the log level in
/etc/cups/cupsd.conf)
