You can try doing this to forcibly uninstall the hp printer....

- Turn OFF the printer.
- Unplug the printer's USB cable from the back of the computer.
- Keeping your PC ON, open the Control Panel -- Add/Remove Programs.
- Find your hp printer program and uninstall everything related to it.

- Restart your PC
- Select Start -- Printer and Faxes -- open the "Printers" folder.
- Ensure that printer icon is disappeared from that location. If it's not - disappeared, then rightclick on the printer icon and select Delete.

NOTE -
In case you need to reinstall your printer, turn ON the printer with USB cable unplugged. Since the printer is uninstalled from the computer, place the HP printer CD in the CD-Rom and let it autorun. It will install the software. During the installation, it will ask you to plug in the USB cable. Follow the instructions and prompts to finish the reinstall.
