The reason for the failure is:

D [22/Apr/2015:15:04:04 +0200] [Job 2639] prnt/backend/hp.c 824: ERROR: open device failed stat=12: hp:/net/printwalter?ip=10.60.16.199
D [22/Apr/2015:15:04:04 +0200] [Job 2639] PID 30723 (/usr/lib/cups/backend/hp) stopped with status 1.

Somehow HPs print backand is not able to communicate with the printer.

Please follow the instructions of the section "Network printer" on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems.
