Printer drivers are sometimes a total mess.


Some drivers there's no way to load (for example, some samsung MFP).

Some other load, but you have to do 2-5 try before they work.

Some other load, but you have to install them on a windows box, and
then smbclient/rpcclient them in samba (see samba docs, manual driver
installation). Note that some load, but still does not work.

Some other also have a plethora of CABs, and you have to expand (some
of) them to have driver loaded.


Try at first the simpliest driver, eg 'PCL5', not the 'UNIDRIVER' one,
possibly getting the from drivers archives.


Good luck. ;)
