There were updates to RH 7.2 for some of the printing stuff.
http://www.redhat.com/support/errata/rh72-errata.html

I see printconf and foomatic included in that list; and "HP 5L"
in the list of affected drivers.  Have you uopdated to those? 
If not, it is probably worth doing. Some of the errata are
