If you are able to open the EWS, but are still unable to use the printer even with the firewall

HP Utility (Mac OS X).
2. Click the Applications icon on the HP Utility toolbar, double-click HP Setup
Assistant, and then follow the onscreen instructions.
Configure your firewall software to work with the printer
A personal firewall, which is security software running on your computer, can block
network communication between your printer and your computer.
If you are having problems such as:
Printer not found when installing HP software
Unable to print, print job stuck in queue or printer goes offline
Unable to see printer status on your computer
The firewall might be preventing your printer from notifying computers on your network
where it can be found.
If you are using the HP software on a computer running Windows and cannot find the
printer during installation (and you know the printer is on the network)—or if you have
already successfully installed HP software and experience problems—check the
following:
If you have just installed the HP software, try turning off your computer and the printer,
and then turning them both on again.
Keep your security software up to date. Many security software vendors provide
updates that correct known issues and provide the latest defenses against new
security threats.
