I have a colleague for whom I have installed IA-32 SL 6 . She has

cannot find a driver for this printer for SL 6. HP open systems
supported this printer starting with hplip-3.14.10, but I cannot find
this RPM for SL 6. The current hplip distributed by HP supports the
M225dw, but will not install under SL 6. At present, the printer
will not print from SL6 although the printer is discovered over the
LAN. Any help or suggestions greatly would be appreciated.

What version of hplip is installed on the system?
Pat
hplip-3.12.4-6.el6.i686.rpm
<http://ftp1.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6x/i386/os/Packages/hplip-3.12.4-6.el6.i686.rpm>
that is the most recent version I can find (could not find a more recent
one in EPEL, etc., that would work with IA-32 SL6)
HPLIP 3.14.10 is the lowest rev level that supports the HP M225dw
(http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/release_notes.html, search on
225dw, scroll up to find the release number).
hplip-3.13.7-6.el7.x86_64.rpm
<http://ftp1.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/7x/x86_64/os/Packages/hplip-3.13.7-6.el7.x86_64.rpm>
seems to be the current SL7 version, but that too will not support this
printer. The RPM from HP for current, HPLIP 3.15.7, definitely will not
install on SL 6 IA-32 and I have not experimented with SL 7 X86-64.
Has anyone ported HPLIP 3.14.10 or higher to IA-32 SL6? to X86-64 SL7?
Does a CUPS that will run on IA-32 SL6 have support for a M225dw (I
cannot find a list of supported printers under CUPS)?
Thanks,
Yasha
