Please try installing using the latest HPLIP. We have an RPM for RHEL 5.x

Hi,

I have tried loading Latest HPLIP 3.9.6 . The problem is same as shown already. It is showing gcc dependency error.

warning: There are 7 missing REQUIRED dependencies
warning: Missing REQUIRED dependency: gcc (gcc - GNU Project C and C++ Compiler)
warning: This installer cannot install 'gcc' for your distro/OS and/or version.
error: Installation cannot continue without this dependency. Please manually install this dependency and re-run this installer.

Kindly help me in installing the the required dependency.

Are you using the RHEL 5 RPM?

Please try using the RPM and you should have better luck.

Click download from the main page and/or install wizard, and select Red Hat Enterprise, and version 5.0.

Hope this helps.
