I installed hplip 3.9.2 (running hplip-3.9.2.run). It gave me a few
warnings, but eventually got through it:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALL MISSING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCIES
-------------------------------------
warning: There are 3 missing OPTIONAL dependencies.
note: Installation of dependencies requires an active internet connection.
warning: Missing REQUIRED dependency for option 'gui_qt3': pyqt (PyQt 3- Qt

DEPENDENCY AND CONFLICT RESOLUTION
----------------------------------
Running 'xterm -e su -c "yast --install python-qt"'
Please wait, this may take several minutes...
warning: A previous install of HPLIP is installed and/or running.
su -c "yast --remove hplip" (Removing old HPLIP version)
warning: HPLIP removal failed. The previous install may have been installed

RE-CHECKING DEPENDENCIES
------------------------
warning: An optional dependency 'cups-ddk (CUPS DDK -
CUPS driver development kit)' is still missing.
warning: Some features may not function as expected.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then when I ran "hp-check -t" I had the following warnings/errors:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Checking PyQt 4.x version...
error: NOT FOUND OR FAILED TO LOAD!

.
Checking for dependency: CUPS DDK - CUPS driver development kit...

The previous 2.8.5 version of hplip didn't seem to mind. Does 3.9.2 require Qt
version 4? I have python-qt 3.5.5. I noticed the confiure was run (by
hplip-3.9.2.run) with "--disable-qt4", so I would think that it should be
alright without it.
I restarted cups. My printer is on the network. When I try and print a test
page to the printer, cups fails with "/usr/lib64/cups/backend/hp failed".
There is no lib64 version of hp, only the 32bit version. When I run
"/usr/lib/cups/backend/hp -h", it gives:
HP Linux Imaging and Printing System
CUPS Backend 3.9.2
(c) 2003-2008 Copyright Hewlett-Packard Development Company, LP
so it looks like 3.9.2 is up and running alright. Why is cups looking
for lib64? Or do I need a 64bit version of hplip?
