I don't know. Before and afterwards I ran into the problem where
no user (in groups lp and lpadmin, even root) is authenticated
enough to finally add the printer (hp-setup -i -a -g).
I guess this is the source of this problem...?

I'm still looking into some problems with the gui, possibly
caused by some Guix specifics. The gui works in general, but what
doesn't work is adding your own ppd (you can select it in the
file-browser but it never gets displayed, therefore you can not
proceed beyond the first page), so I really assume this is dbus
or some other problem too. Nothing new, but the gui functionality
is expected by (some) users.
