I hear that Mandriva has a good printer setup system.

These problems may have something to do with Samsung: as far as I could
tell their original Linux driver did not work under Suse. They have a new
one, but that doesn't work with Ubuntu.

On the other hand, the Samsung laser printer hardware seems very nice in
all other respects.
