Ive got this when I do lsmod:
plip 14120 0
parport 32456 1 plip
So I think the parallel port it working right?

Ive installed newest cups version and started it up and printer does not work.
I downloaded the exact driver for this printer and installed it and Ive got nothing.
I had it working with the 2.4 kernel.
This printer is also a USB printer but could not get that working either.
What steps should I take next? Thanks.

Which samsung model is this?

Which kernel are you running currently?
good luck.

The model is Samsung ML-1210 and I am currently running kernel 2.6.10. Thanks.

What does lpinfo -v report? What driver and ppd are you using?

This is the ppd file: Samsung-ML-1210-gdi.ppd
I tried gimp-print, Cups and another driver but I cannot find it, I think I removed the downloaded tar.

Sorry to be so long getting back to you. This might help.
