Resolving HP printer issues in CentOS

To resolve HP printer issues in CentOS try following steps:

  1. yum -y update hplip cups
  2. Reboot the machine
  3. As root user run system-config-printer and delete all old printers for the same device. Add a new printer and try to print test page.
  4. If system-config-printer fails to add printer then first delete all printers using 'system-config-printer'. Then try to use 'hp-setup' command as root.
  5. If this also fails again delete all printers and use 'hp-setup -i' command as root. Try to get latest drivers for printer from hp website. If internet is accessible through proxy then 'export http_proxy=<proxy-url>' before running 'ht-setup -i'.
  6. If still no sucess then try to get latest hplip sources from official website and install latest hplip from source.
