Do you have some documentation (print, CD-ROM, PDF, HP's website, etc.) on that printer?  Have you thoroughly looked at the features in the printer software, accessing it from Windows Control Panel? 

I have a Canon BJC-3000 that I owned for several years before I discovered that I could set it to automatically power on when a print command is issued.  Prior to that, I always manually turned it on.
