Hello all, 
I'm attempting to install an HP laserjet 1000 onto a PC running SUSE 10
(SLED). 
>From the HP support website I downloaded HPLIP-1.6.10-run  - an installer
with Linux drivers for most HP printers.
In a terminal window as SU I enter sh ./hplip-1.6.10-run
This starts an extraction, recogises the distro as SUSE10 and begins the
install process.
Then installation notes state: before continuing, open another terminal and
run:
installation_sources -a
http://suse.mirrors.tds.net/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS/inst-sourc
e/

The link can be opened with a browser ok

Putting the above line in at the command prompt in a second terminal returns
bash: installation_sources: command not found

Can anyone suggest what i am doing wrong, please?

Peter
