Once installed, run (as root) hp-setup
I have had rpmforge installed for some time. 'yum list hplip' gives me an old 1.x version that is installed.
that old version is in centos. Rpmforge now has several repos, packages that upgrade base centos rpms are now in the rpmforge-extras repo. This includes hplip which is at 3.10.6 in rpmforge-extras. See http://lists.rpmforge.net/pipermail/users/2010-November/003411.html
I would, if you'll forgive the spamming, check out my article on it at http://home.roadrunner.com/~computertaijutsu/hplip.html
Though the hplipopensource.com page is down, the instructions should still be good (and if you go to their page, you can still get a link to a download--get the tar.gz file.
