Samsung serves a driver for CUPS, it's working with my Suse 9.2. A
Samsung installation skript installs some stuff to
/usr/local/linuxprinter. After I can print documents by using lpr, e.g.
lpr test.ps. -__Okay.
But how can I integrate the driver into CUPS printes listet with lpc
status? - I want to handle the printer like any other printer in our
LAN. I alread copies the /usr/local/linuxprinter/ppd/C/2250spl2.ppd to
/usr/share/cups/model/Samsung and zipp'ed it. I installed a CUPS printer
with localhost:631 html frontend, but it's not working.
I think that there are some filters missing like described in the ppd
file: cat ML-2250spl2.ppd:
*PPD-Adobe: "4.3"

*FileVersion: "1.1"

[...]
Who can help me?
Is there perhaps a trick?
