Don't want any more Samsung printers they don't care about Linux

Hey, don't be so quick to diss on Samsung. They were among the first

I would also recommend that you get and HP printer. They don't

also produce good quality prints.
The thing that is blowing my mind and I just don't understand, Why is
this 2009 Samsung driver working on a Asus Mini Laptop w/Fedora 18 and

Check the cups filter chain for correct ownership and permissions.
Set it up in debug mode and look for clues as to what's hanging it

remember which one, that had a problem with the filter chain. The
issue may have been caused by the distribution, not the Samsung
driver. YMMV
