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
The 6.7 BETA/rolling release includes a newer version of hplip.

hplip-3.14.6-3.el6.i686.rpm
<http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/scientific/6rolling/i386/os/Packages/hplip-3.14.6-3.el6.i686.rpm> is what I currently find on 6 rolling --
hplip-3.14.6-3.el6.i686.rpm
<http://mirror.lug.udel.edu/pub/centos/6.7/os/i386/Packages/hplip-3.14.6-3.el6.i686.rpm> also is what I find for CentOS 6.7
whereas the minimum is HPLIP 3.14,10 .

Although the official release is 3.14.6 (too low for the M225dw), there
are "unofficial" releases up to 13.5.6 ("unofficial" more or less
corresponds to non-RH/CentOS/SL RPMs not from vendors such as HP but
that many of us in fact install). This comparison between OpenSUSE and
SL is NOT an advertisement or suggestion for OpenSUSE over SL -- now
that I am running both, I personally prefer SL. SUSE support, even for
the licensed for fee Enterprise version, is much, much poorer than what
one gets from this SL listserver, at least if one is knowledgeable.
Moreover, as far as I can tell, the SUSE patterns method for installing
an application and the dependencies thereto is not as functional as the
yum equivalent -- it will install everything, but there is no inverse to
remove everything thereby installed. Note that no one at SUSE/OpenSUSE
has responded on how to automatically undo a "pattern" (manually
selecting each package/rpm from a GUI one by one from a list and then
starting the removal process is *NOT* automatic).
Thanks,
