The X215, SCX-4216F and Xerox PE 16 appears to be the same printer. This will probably work for the Xerox as well. Download the SCX-4216F drivers from [http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/DR/200607/20060719092410609_UnifiedLinuxDriver.tar.gz] and run installation program. This will install a configuration program and make the driver available in the CUPS printer setup. Printing works fine over smb, haven't tested scanning. |

No way to make it works. No support from Lexmark. No drivers, no apparent Linux knowledge. Lexmark driver page outdated, doc. giving broken links on the Internet. The printer does not work either. No comment... |

Printer looks for DHCP server and works perfectly over a network (printer has inbuilt print server). To print from Adobe Reader change printing command from /usr/bin/lp to /usr/bin/lpr -YourPrinterName. www.linuxprinting.org suggest using the pxl mono driver but I found this stalled certain PDF print jobs - I use lj5grey and has fixed the problem. Quality and speed good. Could not get Lexmark proprietary drivers to work- you don't need it for this printer anyway. |

After installing the .PPD file, I just installed it with the CUPS web interface. Works ok. Aparently there is a problem where the printer can block with it's error LED flashing, to sole this you should set the paper tray to "automatic". PPD file can be found here : http://europe.oki.com/binaryData/6683/ok4200pcl.ppd.gz |

The print manager should auto-detect; use the ML-1710 drivers. Seconded -- I have the same experience. It's a good printer. |

Recognized as the ML-200, ML-210, or ML-4500. Works well for some, slow (8ppm) for others. Latest MFG's driver is v 2.xx. Installs easily but must still go to System/Admin/Printers and add ML-2010. Tested fine in Dapper. Original driver from Samsung was horrible |

Works, though seems buggy (Landscape printing in OpenOffice doesn't work, etc.) Downloaded (Linux-compatiable) driver from Samsung which asks for root password when installed which doesn't seems to work, however printer is detected anyway. |

ML-1610 not listed but defaults to ML-1650 but this driver does not work, Select ML-1510 driver and printer then works perfectly with no other settings needed. -- update by JanClaeys: I use the ML-1710 driver which seems to work a little better (it fixed a printing problem I had with the ML-1510 driver). |
