I should have thanked you before,
but I only just got around to downloading
hpijs-3.10.6-0.1.el5.test.x86_64.rpm,
hplip-3.10.6-0.1.el5.test.x86_64.rpm,
libsane-hpaio-3.10.6-0.1.el5.test.x86_64.rpm
from <http://packages.sw.be/hplip/>,
and installing them on my CentOS machine
with "sudo yum localing install hplip ...",
and as far as I can see this works fine.
The printer has a USB connection,
and with the printer on
CUPS found it and I installed it
with the one of the three printers I was offered
having HPLIP in the title.
As far as I can see it works fine.
Thanks again.
