I can't remove tcp_wrappers-libs-7.6-57.el6.test.x86_64 because too much depends on it.
Give me output of "yum list tcp_wrappers-libs --showduplicates --disableplugin=*priorities*, I got:

maybe "yum update" or "yum update tcp_wrappers-libs.i686" will help?

So the problem seems to be the fact that I have the test version from the rpmforge-testing repo installed. I've tried disabling that repo and doing an update but no luck. I've tried doing a yum update of the i686 version but yum says it's available but not installed. Doing a yum install give me the multi-repo error. Is there a way to replace one version with anothe?
try yum downgrade
First thing to do is to permanently disable rpmforge-testing and rpmforge-extras repos with "enabled=0" in /etc/yum.repos.d/rpm...
I had already permanently disabled the rf tesing repo but I do need the other rf repos because I use BackupPC which is not in the CentOS base.
I didn't go to the lengths that Ljubomir suggested but I downgraded the tcp_wrappers-libs then installed the i686 version and then I was able to install libcanberra.i686 and libcanberra-gtk2.i686 (why does a printer driver need a portable sound event library anyway?!?)
I was then able to run the Lexmark installer script but it still failed. Annoyingly, it pops up a "failed" dialog box that only has one button. When you click the button it kills the app and removes the text window containing the error messages which scrolled out of view.
I was just able to decipher the bottom half of the last error to figure out that I needed to install the i686 version of libusb.
Now I have a working printer again. I haven't tested the scanner yet but I expect it will work.
Thanks, Steve
