hi ..

Check here for drivers ... necessary ..

http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-DeskJet_3745

try sending out a test file using  command line .. you can use the lpr 
command ...

An example is at 
http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Printing-Usage-HOWTO.html#ss2.2

That will help you to resolve the issue,
