Are you using the official HP driver? Did you download the latest from their site?
If so, that's probably the trouble. HP's drivers are classified as malware by 90% of the sysadmins in my unofficial poll.
They get worse if you've got printer sharing enabled. I'd start by making sure that it's turned off in the Sharing pref's.
I suggest that you try a Gutenprint driver instead of HP's.
