This installer cannot install 'libusb' for your distro/OS and/or version

Also tried:

I followed the instructions at:
http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/install/manual/distros/redhatenterprise.html

cd ~/Desktop/
su -c "rpm -ev --nodeps libsane-hpaio"
su -c "rpm -ev hplip-gui"
su -c "rpm -ev hplip"
su -c "rpm -ev hpijs"
su -c "yum install PyQt"
su -c "yum install xsane"
su -c "rpm -Uvh hplip-3.11.5_rhel-5.0.x86_64.rpm"

Here is the result:
[root@ren tmp17]# rpm -Uvh hplip-3.11.5_rhel-5.0.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
hplip = 1.6.7-6.el5_6.1 is needed by (installed) libsane-hpaio-1.6.7-6.el5_6.1.x86_64
hplip = 1.6.7-6.el5_6.1 is needed by (installed) hpijs-1.6.7-6.el5_6.1.x86_64

Try:
   sudo apt-get install libusb
and report result.
Which version of Ubuntu are you using ?
