I want to print to it. And from my Asterisk at home server.
I see that I do not have the "Printing Support" group installed. I guess this would be the first set.
Then I see http://hpinkjet.sourceforge.net/hplip_readme.html
Is this driver included in the Centos repos?
There are a number of caveats.
Of course, for me, the biggest is need to do a make. I bet the AAH build doesn't have what that will take!
if A@H is CentOS and uses CentOS repositories...
then
yum install gcc gcc-c++ autoconf
should get the dependencies and install anything you would need to 'make' stuff
good, but I don't like it :)
I don't know about hplip but you could 'yum install hpijs' which might have what you need.
To quote from the above URL:
HPLIP uses http://hpinkjet.sf.net/hpijs_readme.htmlHPIJS 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!
