I cannot testify about the samsung, but Brother has what I would call 
excellent linux support, but you will need to get the correct set of ppd 
files from their web page.  If this printer isn't there, there is an email 
link to their support on the web page, and my query regarding an HL-2140 I 
had just bought was answered quickly, competently and courteously, pointing 
me at the correct file to download.  Self extracting, it installed itself in 
the proper location to be found by a restart of the cupsd daemon.  Then it 
was a simple matter of adding another printer profile at 
http://localhost:631.

HTH.
