I’m bumping this again for my own convenience and hopefully someone else who needs it will find it.
[update: in case you haven't done this before and are wondering where is cdroot - when
you extract the .tar.gz it extracts to a folder called cdroot.]
[Ubuntu OS Installation]
1. Download and extract the driver
2. Open ”Root Terminal”
3. Execute installation program.
$ sudo cdroot/autorun
4. After intall, PPD path is set again.
$ sudo ln -s /usr/share/cups/model/samsung /usr/share/ppd/custom/samsung
5. Execute Configurator, and Add your printer model name by Add Printer
I’m not sure I know what all of that means, but see also HOWTO Install Samsung Unified Printer Driver (Mini-guide to installing Samsung printers & Unified Driver:Updated 28 April 2008 )
