I also have the HP Deskjet f4235 all-in-one printer and had no problem installing it.
I also am running PCLInuxOS 2011.6 KDE

PCC>Hardware>Set up the printer>ADD

Be sure that your printer is plugged in and turned on

OrdiDoc, install the package task-printing, this should give you all you need to setup your printer.
