To Add and set as Defult Printer Go to system Preferences>Print and Scan > "+" symbol on left corner and add the printer.
when you give a command of print there you can see the list of printers and you can select the printer you want to print from.

Installed hp laserjet 3380 on apple desktop pro - message printer stopped

See if it is the right driver. Intel Mac is not the same driver set as regular Mac.

Also, Apple + HP or Okidata often = issues.
