ls /usr/bin/hp*
/usr/bin/hp-align     /usr/bin/hpijs        /usr/bin/hp-print
/usr/bin/hp-check     /usr/bin/hp-info      /usr/bin/hp-sendfax
/usr/bin/hp-clean     /usr/bin/hp-levels    /usr/bin/hp-setup
/usr/bin/hp-colorcal  /usr/bin/hp-makeuri   /usr/bin/hp-testpage
/usr/bin/hp-fab       /usr/bin/hpojip-test  /usr/bin/hp-toolbox
/usr/bin/hpftodit     /usr/bin/hp-photo     /usr/bin/hp-unload

so I tried running hp-toolbox, which gave

 [ERROR]: Unable to connect to HPLIP I/O. Check and make sure HPLIP is 
running.
 [ERROR]: Unable to create client object.

Entering 'hplip' give 'command not found'.

locate hplip
/var/cache/yum/development/headers/hplip-0.9.8-4.i386.hdr

I'm lost!
