An intelligent filter chooser script sets up the exact path of filtration used
to send data to printers.  Your part in this is to run

printtool 

as root and choose the appropriate filter for your printer.  Out of printtool
you should see a driver for the HP 6xxC printers among others.  If that doesn't
work, then try reloading your printer packages and ghostscript rpms.
