There are two other questions in the mail you are responding to. You
have not dealt with them. I'll repeat them for reference:
> From where did you get the necessary drivers?
> Is there any sign of "gstoraster" in your error_log?
You have rastertosamsungspl as a filter. It needs to be given raster
data. It looks like it is being given PostScript - so the filter stops.
Also provide the outputs of
cat /etc/cups/ppd/ppd_for_the printer | grep NickName
and
cat /etc/cups/ppd/ppd_for_the printer | grep cupsFilter
You will probably have to be root to get these.
