In 2009 I got a HP Color LaserJet CP1215. Unfortunately this printer is not compatible with OS X. Six years ago I managed to install the printer by using open source tools and drivers. In 2012 I got a new MacBook Pro and needed to install the printer again and I wrote about the process on my old blog. Now three more years have passed and when OS X 10.10 Yosemite came out I decided to do a clean install, but I didn't install the printer because I didn't need it. A few month have passed since then and now I needed to use the printer again and thus I had to install it again.

You need GCC to compile C code. In my opinion the best way to get GCC is to install Xcode from the Mac App Store.
