samsung/ml1610.ppd.gz Samsung ML-1610, SpliX V. 2.0.0
Therefore the Samsung ML-1610 should be supported by a Ghostscript driver via the first PPD from the OpenPrintingPPDs-ghostscript RPM and also by the SpliX driver in the splix RPM.
Install both the OpenPrintingPPDs-ghostscript RPM and also the splix RPM, see the "Driver" section in http://en.opensuse.org/YaST_Printer ------------------------------------------------------------------- The Add New Printer Configuration Dialog ... Driver ... click the "Driver Packages" button to check whether or not you may have to install more printer driver software packages -------------------------------------------------------------------
I downloaded from net (somwhere, on some website) this file 'ml1610unifiedlinuxdriverv2-00-90.gz' might be this is the driver it needs.
I am afraid I cannot help with third-party software because I have no knowledge at all regarding those software. In general when you use third-party software you can usually only ask where you got the third-party software for help and support.
What I tried:-
From yast -> hardware -> printing -> Add (new printer add wizard) -> samsung (ok it too) -> "No matching driver found. Change the search string or try 'Find More'."
Install the above mentioned packages and then I assume a matching driver can be found. If there is still no matching driver found, simplify the search string in YaST so that more drivers match e.g. to only "samsung" or "1610" and then select the right driver manually, see the "Driver" section in http://en.opensuse.org/YaST_Printer Kind Regards Johannes Meixner -- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH -- Maxfeldstrasse 5 -- 90409 Nuernberg -- Germany HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendoerffer
