I have a Samsung printer and if you used the Samsung drivers Selinux
will give you headaches . It won't let the printer print.
It appears that the USB port has found the Samsung printer, As SU do a

If that does not work do a reinstall of drivers.
I had to do a su- to get the drivers to install correctly .
