I have been very content with my old HP Laserjet 4L the last years. I even bought a USB→Centronics adapter when I bought a new pc without parallel port. The last few days however it had some problems with the paper cassette. Some small plastic part was broken, and although my glueing kept several days, I eventually had to give up on it. I decided it was time for something new, and I bought a Samsung CLP-310N Color Laserjet for about €110,- after I read that some people got it working on Linux.

foo2qpdl is a linux printer driver for QPDL protocol (e.g. Samsung CLP-300, Samsung CLP-310, Samsung CLP-315, Samsung CLP-600, Samsung CLP-610, Xerox Phaser 6110) and can be found at http://foo2qpdl.rkkda.com/

apt-get install wget 
wget -O foo2zjs.tar.gz http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/foo2zjs.tar.gz
?? apt-get build-essential??
apt-get install ghostscript dc gcc make
cd foo2zjs
make
./getweb 310

'apt-get install foomatic-rip' doesn't work, but foomatic-rip is included in foomatic-filters:

apt-get install foomatic-filters

<code>nano /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
root@vm-stor:~/foo2zjs# /etc/init.d/cups restart

Add an entry in the firewall config, and restart the firewall:

nano /etc/init.d/firewall
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -i eth0 --dport 631 -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT
/etc/init.d/firewall restart

Check if the changes to cupsd.conf are active:

sockstat -l

root     cupsd                10451    tcp4   127.0.0.1:631             *:*                       LISTEN
root     cupsd                10451    tcp4   <<IP>>:631            *:*                       LISTEN
