Try browsing http://172.16.100.1:631
That shows a blank page.

--May seem off here, but have you tried HPLIP. HP, in my experience, has been good about working with Linux; especially with there Linux driver HPLIP (HP Linux Imaging and Printing). If the router is successfully creating something to be discovered via the network then HPLIP should pick it up fairly easy. If interested check out the Fedora Wiki on the subject at:Once installed usually can add through normal add printer , add network printer scenario, but read documentation just to be sure for your own case. Hope this helps.
I had tried using HPLIP also but that does not detect it as a network or wireless printer. For configuring the wireless printer using HPLIP one needs to connect the printer through USB once so that it is identified and when I tried that option, it did not recognize it as a known wireless printer. So I think it works only for the known HP Wireless / Network Printers.
