I followed the directions for ML-1210 and CUPS at www.linuxprinting.org.
When I did "gs --help" I didn't see "samsunggdi" but I did see "gdi", and
one of the lines of the Samsung-ML-1210.ppd is
*PCFileName: "GDI.PPD"
So I thought I had that part covered.
When I tried to send test pages to the printer, the printer woke up but
never actually printed anything. The web admin page showed that the job had
printed, and error_log also said the job had completed without any problems.
