Further update for anyone that runs into this issue:
The problem resolved itself when I installed the "hplic" drivers. This has a whole bunch of dependencies, and so ended up installing a lot, but the setup now seems to work with the drivers provided by "hp-setp" binary that gets installed with the hplic package.
Further note of caution:
I was using both a network (hp) printer as well as a USB one (both Deskjet series I believe), and whereas hplic provided the correct drivers for the network printer, but the issues with the USB printer still remain (although hp-setup was able to find that printer and reported successful completion).
