[Bug 1102001] Re: CUPS recommends incorrect driver for Samsung ML-1670

 

Ubuntu provides only support/recommendations for open source printer
drivers like splix and foo2qpdl, proprietary/closed source printer
drivers support you obviously need to obtain from your printer driver
manufacturer in this case Samsung.
