well, it still doesn't work. although ML-1610 is available and splix driver is recommendated, choosing splix driver doesn't work. after run gnome-cups-add on console it has ended with: Selected ppd file = foomatic:Samsung-ML-1000-gdi.ppd Selected ppd file = foomatic:Samsung-ML-1610-splix.ppd ** (gnome-cups-add:17162): WARNING **: IPP request failed with status 1280 and error_log contains: E [30/Sep/2006:21:23:25 +0200] copy_model: empty PPD file!

[Bug 41789] Re: the Samsung ML-1610 printer works with ML-1510 driver
Yes, the splix driver does seem to print a smoother test page with the Samsung ML-1610 printer. Making this my new default. I'm using the ML-2250 driver as suggested at http://splix.ap2c.org/ Thanks very much. -- the Samsung ML-1610 printer works with ML-1510 driver https://launchpad.net/bugs/41789 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 41789] Re: the Samsung ML-1610 printer works with ML-1510 driver
The hacked ppd, perhaps, does nothing useful. So I set the printer to ml-1510 (gdi). The printer works but only at 600 dpi. If I set 300dpi it prints always only garbage lines. Do you have the same behaviour?

Hmm, yes, I think you're right. Should've tested it further. Sorry about that. -- the Samsung ML-1610 printer works with ML-1510 driver https://launchpad.net/bugs/41789 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 41789] Re: the Samsung ML-1610 printer works with ML-1510 driver
i tried to use the Samsung original driver for linux but the ppd don't work (i tried the setup, and i tried the manual ppd installation). That's way i use the ML-1510 from Dapper. It doesn't work with ML-1710 from Dapper. -- the Samsung ML-1610 printer works with ML-1510 driver https://launchpad.net/bugs/41789 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 41789] Re: the Samsung ML-1610 printer works with ML-1510 driver
I've also found the Samsung ML-1610 to work with ML-1710 (gdi recommended) driver for text and graphics. With either one, however, I've also seen flaky behavior occasionally, at least under Breezy. Didn't upgrade to Dapper on this system until yesterday. It would nevertheless be interesting to understand why when you run `gksudo linux-config` to add the printer using the software delivered by Samsung, you cannot actually add the printer configuration. Seems like it doesn't play well with cups somehow... -- the Samsung ML-1610 printer works with ML-1510 driver https://launchpad.net/bugs/41789 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 41789] Re: the Samsung ML-1610 printer works with ML-1510 driver
Hmm... Looks like this may be due to flakiness in what Samsung has delivered. A bit of googling led to an explanation of their PPD file being incompatible, http://www.linuxprinting.org/pipermail/general- list/2006q1/007279.html That definitely seems to be the case on my system: $ cupstestppd /usr/local/linuxprinter/ppd/C/ML-1610spl2.ppd /usr/local/linuxprinter/ppd/C/ML-1610spl2.ppd: FAIL **FAIL** REQUIRED DefaultImageableArea REF: Page 102, section 5.15. **FAIL** REQUIRED PageRegion REF: Page 100, section 5.14. **FAIL** BAD Product - not (string).
