Just wanted to know if the foomatic hplip drivers and the hpcups drivers are mutually exclusive?
Reason I ask is that the foomatic hplip project configured itself (when I installed it) so that none of the hplip drivers got installed, but the hpcups drivers did.
This sourceforge project provides the shell script that builds and installs the binaries. User does not get to play with configure.

No, they can both be installed at once, and both be used at once (by different queues).

Don't use that then. ;-)
Fedora already ships an HPLIP package, and Fedora 13 can automatically download and install it for you when you plug in your printer.
