net-snmp was missing indeed. After I installed it, the problem went away. Is net-snmp always required for hplip ? Or only when using a networked printer. In the former case, I think I should file a bug for CentOS (and Mandriva, where I was having a similar problem), because they didn't mark net-snmp as a dependency for hplip.
Thank you for your quick and accurate response. Geert On Monday 6 August 2007 20:33, Suffield, David wrote: > Based on the MIB messages, looks like there is a problem with net-snmp > installation.
