I looked in Puppy 525 and I couldn't see a Gutenprint driver for your Officejet 5510v. So I suspect you picked some incompatible model by mistake.
You need the hplip_print-3.11.7.pet from here. This is a driver package specifically for HP printers. Look for the Officejet 5500 Series.
You will need to delete your current printer and let CUPS rediscover it.
