For starters, exactly what model of HP printer do you have and how do you want to connect to it?

How to Install Your Printer/Scanner in Puppy

This covers all printers.
In the first post find the info on HP printers and follow it carefully.
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.
