I have a Samsung ML-1510 Laser printer, connected to the CP via a USB cable...
It worked perfectly well under RH8.
Under FC4, it worked ok once I managed to get it installed, but kept disappearing, until someone from this list advised me how to tweak the OS to make it work.
Under FC7, it worked for a couple of weeks, but now (after a YUM update) the printer seems to be 'not connected - trying again in 30s'
Any advice?
I am tempted to downgrade to FC6, or *gasp!* even buy a cheap Windows XP machine. I don't have time to be my own technical support department.
Yours, Mike H...

This printer is supposedly supported, as described here http://linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Samsung-ML-1510
See if that helps (using the driver they mention)

Not sure what you mean about this. Can you be more specific? Perhaps it's relevant.

What does 'lpstat -s' say, and what does '/usr/sbin/lpinfo -v' say?

The Samsung unified printer driver works fine for me in F7. Covers lots of their models.
