HPLIP uses HPIJS for generating printer-ready-data for non-postscript print jobs. HPIJS has been available since 2001 as a uni-di solution. HPIJS has been modified to support HPLIP, but HPIJS is still backward compatible with existing spoolers.

And I just tried yum install hplip and came up empty.

Given what the the URL tells about this utility, I would think it should be part of the Centos base!

I rebuilt http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/4/SRPMS/hpli... from Fedora Core 4. Works-for-me from a local yum repo for an HP OfficeJet. Unless the upstream provider adds it, it won't be in the base anytime soon, but could be a CentOSplus candidate.
