Yes, but we are approaching the end of an era. As soon as 7 is out,
you won't be able to get applications for 6 and you'll be forced to
switch, Oh wait,
My fully patched CentOS 6.5 system uses:
hplip-common-3.12.4-4.el6_4.1.i686
hpijs-3.12.4-4.el6_4.1.i686
hplip-libs-3.12.4-4.el6_4.1.i686
My wife's printer becomes supported at 3.13.somethingOrOther
and the current release is 3.14.something.
Why are we so far behind?
