The first thing to do is to check ~/.xsession-errors for
konqueror-related messages and/or to start konqueror from a konsole
terminal and watch out for illuminating error messages.

Furthermore, if you upgraded your box recently (hpijs 2.6.10+1.6.10-2)
then you might have to reinstall your PPD files, see
/usr/share/doc/hpijs/NEWS.Debian.gz.
