Have you downloaded the ppd file from Samsung? I assume it's available 
on the Internet from Samsung.
Here is an install routine for an Epson printer on my PCLOS system. The 
red colors are for the printer,
the blue colors are for me. You should replace them with your own. And 
of course, the colors are not
part of the install! From a root command prompt:

lpadmin -p WP4530 -E -D "linux1" -L RPNY -v socket://192.168.1.26:9100 
-P 
/opt/epson-inkjet-printer-201113w/ppds/Epson/Epson-WP-4530_Series-epson-driver.ppd.gz 
-E

linux1 is the name of my computer
RPNY is an abbreviation of my location
192.168.1.26 is the static IP of my printer
/opt is a directory in /
/epson-inkjet-printer-201113w is a subdirectory in /opt
/ppds is the next subdirectory
/Epson is the next subdirectory
Epson-WP-4530, etc is the actual driver found in the /Epson subdirectory

I don't know what you put for the socket if your printer doesn't have a 
static ip; all of my devices have static ips. I find that otherwise I 
don't know what's where!
After you do that  open cups (http://localhost:631) and turn off 
sharing, unless you want all your computers to use the same printer all 
the time. If you have two
printers, things might get confusing. I have each of my two printers 
installed separately in each of my computers, and sharing turned off in 
each. Strange things happen
if you don't do it this way. Be very careful of CASE when you put in the 
command, and watch spaces, underlines, etc.

When you modify cups, you may have to put in name and password. For 
name, the answer is root and for password, the answer is your own root 
password.

Thanks to a Tasmanian  fellow who goes by the name "wedgetail" for 
teaching me this. via the PCLOS Forum.
