Would help if you told us what version/distro of Linux you're using, and what kind of printer (and how it's connected) you're trying to print to.
From what you've posted, it look like you're trying to install it on RedHat 9/10...which is ANCIENT. Chances are, if you're using a distro that old, the compiler won't recognize those options. Both Foomatic and the HPLIP (recommended), drivers are available via the online repositories, but if you're using a distro that's very old, chances are you're stuck until you upgrade.
If you get a proper distro, you shouldn't have to do anything with an HP printer other than plug in in and run the CUPS installer: that will just recognise it without your needing to do any more.

i am trying to install on Hp Lasejet 1020 printer with Redhat Linux 5.5 pirated software.
Reposting the same question again, doesn't provide ANY follow up information, does it??
Did you even pay attention to what you posted?? You clearly say you're following instructions for FEDORA 9, and you admit you're running RedHat Enterprise 5.5. Are they they same??? If not, then the instructions won't work, will they? HPlip and Foomatic are already available and ready to run for RHEL5. Install them from your DVD. And if you're not going to PAY for RHEL5, then you shouldn't be using it.
Load CentOS instead, which is virtually identical, but free. You'll get access to the online repositories too, and be able to actually install things.

The words "pirated software" together are not allowed here at LinuxQuestions! Since the majority of the Linux distributions are free, I strongly suggest to install another distro and bring yourself within the law. As already suggested, if you like Red Hat, try CentOS which is essentially the same. Any other question related to your pirated copy will be hardly pursued.
