Are you using the install disk or adding the printer through the Add Printer Wizard? If you are using the Wizard you want to make sure you are selecting a local printer and than adding a TCP/IP port or and HP TCP/IP port.

The web page goes over port 80, the printer may be using a port you are blocking. Did you check any firewall settings?
