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.
