I should have been more precise. I have installed SME 7.0.
I did try yum localinstall, it failed also.
I changed a few items in yum.conf (enabled=1 and enablegroups=1)and was able to install cups, foomatic, ghostscript, gimp-print, urw-fonts, hpijs, and cups. I then ran signal-event post-upgrade and signal-event reboot. I still can't use or find my printer. Is there something else that I need to do to activate cups?
I have done this before with Clark Connect and IPCop, so I "think" I have some idea of what to do. I am not even close, though, to being an expert, as you may have already deduced.
I really do appreciate the suggestions and the help.
