How to install the drivers for a samsung ml-1670?

I have just re-installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS via internet but I'm not able to print anything with my Laser Printer SAMSUNG ML-1670.

Where or how I can find and install the proper driver for Ubuntu??

Unless this bug hasn't been fixed, you only need to:

1. From the Printers dialogue, select Add Printer.
2. Select "Samsung ML-1670" from the devices list (connected via USB)
3. Select "Select printer from database" and "Samsung (recommended)"
4. Select "ML-1660 (recommended)" from the Models, and "Samsung ML-1660, 2.0.0 [en] (recommended)" from Drivers
5. Click through and Apply
6. Print a test page

If it doesn't work, install the printer-driver-splix package, settings must be monocrome instead of color and max. 600dpi.

Download drivers from this page: , extract them and install drivers with:

sudo ./install-printer.sh

cd into /usr/lib/cups/filter.

If the link rastertosplc (not rastertospl) doesn’t exist, add symbolic link to /opt/smfp-common/printer/bin/rastertospl with:

sudo ln -s /opt/smfp-common/printer/bin/rastertospl rastertosplc 

then you will find ML1670 in database of printers in system settings.

You've got the Samsung ML-1670 Linux driver available for download, firstly at the Samsung support web, and now as the universal printer driver for Linux, here
