You need to add it a different way

If the HPLIP Printer Toolbox is not recognizing it, then you didn't add it so that the distro understands it. There is a quirk with the way you need to add it.
You'll need to add it via KControl and you'll need to select the printer with the underscore characters in it before going to the rest of the screens.
See this post for details and screen prints on how to add it (just substitute your printer for the one being shown in the screens):

As for the card reader, it may or may not work. But, the printer and scanner functions should both work OK (and you'll be able to use the HPLIP printer toolbox to check ink levels, align heads, etc.).
