Thanks, this will help upcoming users with the same problem :-)
Were those debs coming from here?

- samsungmfp-driver-legacy
The samsungmfp-driver, samsungmfp-driver-3.00.65, and samsungmfp-driver-
legacy packages provide all the binary files for the driver itself
(printing and scanning); the difference is the version of the driver and
required system dependencies.
You may need to manually add printers via standard interfaces, although
in some distributions a USB-connected printer may be automatically
detected and installed.
- samsungmfp-data
The samsungmfp-data package provides the ppd/cms files needed to control
the printers, and is pretty much required to do anything at all.

Mmm, why the "driver-legacy" flavor? Wasn't the other set of packages
working for you? :-?

Ah, okay... you mean you refreshed your repositories "cache", right? Nor
the whole system nor a specific package.
