If you ran the find command ("sudo find /etc -name hplip") and there 
was no output, then the file "hplip" does not exist anywhere within /etc.

Something must have gone wrong with your compile, or your install. 
Either the compile or install failed, or else the install placed the 
files in some strange place.

Can you try running these commands?

First:
sudo find / -name hplip

This will search your entire directory tree for the "hplip" script. 
Be patient. It may take several minutes to complete, maybe longer, 
depending on how fast your system is and how many files you have 
stored on it.

If "sudo find / -name hplip" does not find anything, please try this 
command:
sudo find / -name "hplip*"

This second "find" command will search for any file that begins with 
"hplip", and it should at least locate some files within the directory 
where you ran the the "configure", "make" and "make install" commands.

Please post the output you get from running these two additional 
"find" commands.

If you don't turn up a file named "hplip" somewhere on your system, 
then the installation (and perhaps the compile, too) failed.

Regards,
Larry
