Problem with samsung MFP -Drivers? scx-4216f

Asked by smortaus

Hi there,
I am very new to Linux and I am coming upto speed with it – be it slowly..

I have to say that I am very impressed with Ubuntu. I am extremely confused with file structure and the terminal mode – so if possible any anwers coming – could you do it in a very basic mode type response.

The Problem I have.

I have a printer – MODEL Number : scx-4216f
The samsung drivers for Linux do not work... I have the printer connected via USB.

Any help would be most appreciated – again I have to stress that I am new to the Linux side so any answers – could it be in very simple format.

Regards Danny
