Have you checked the cups setup - http://localhost:631 - and looked at all |
| 33 |
the setup settings and the Jobs queue? Sounds like a driver issue to me, but |
| 34 |
I always use HP printers, and hplip takes care of the drivers. I'm not |
| 35 |
familiar with the drivers for Samsung products. |

Perhaps someone will come along who has that printer that can assist you. |
| 38 |
Also you might ask on freenode IRC, channel #gentoo. That is a very helpful |
| 39 |
resource. Good luck! |
