Uninstall whatever you've installed and then Try with:

yum -y install hplip hplip-common

as Root. after that, reboot your system for "better vibe"

and plug your printer to the PC. Try to print something (Be sure the printer
is functional)

If you still getting errors, Try printing a PDF and tell me the result

Good Luck!
