It's strange.

I bought one of these about a week ago and am really pleased.
1) Don't bother with the samsung driver. It may be good but it installed cups 1.1. Run the uninstall script if you haven't done so.
2) I didn't even try the gutenprint drivers (maybe the ml4500 is compatible?)
3) I did try the foomatic ml-2010 driver which is excellent 600x600dpi
4) I settled on the splix driver which does 1200x600 dpi and is even better on gradients (I couldn't see any difference between the two drivers when printing text)
Does any printer work on your system?
As "root", check kcontrol -> peripherals -> printers. Under the "print manager" tab, go to "configure manager" and check that under "cups server" you have "localhost" and "631", not some lock file.

I have no problems with splix on my system. I haven't tested any other driver though.

i tried to add the printer through kcontrol -> peripherals -> printers -> add printer, but kcontrol doesn't detect the printer connected to the usb port.
lsusb says nothing about a printer.
so, what can it be?
[EDIT]
ok, now lsusb detects it (pierlo kernel was the reason, why not) and i can add it in cups. but now, when i want to print something, i get the error:
lpr: Unsupported format: application/postscript!
i think it has to with the mime.convs file. but what i have to edit?

Have you tried following the last post here (reinstall print packages)?
Offline
ok, i made it!
thanks to all of you!
i removed all packages related to printing. removed also all "pacsave" files, did a reboot and then installed cups and the driver as described in the wiki!
i'm so happy...
