Oh, that does *not* have the driver you are after.
But now I've looked on my Fedora-12 laptop, where I have
hpijs-3.10.2-2.fc12.i686 and hplip-3.10.2-2.fc12.i686,
and I still don't see any mention of the HP J4500 series.
Select 'HP' as the manufacturer and 'Officejet j4500' as the model.
Do I actually have to attach the printer to the laptop
to get the PPD file?
No.
Also, if I did manage to find, or create,
an appropriate PPD file on my Fedora-12 laptop
could I transfer it to my CentOS-5.4 desktop?
No, I'm afraid not. It isn't a PostScript driver but a raster-type
driver. It needs that version of HPLIP in order to run.
