Samsung ML-2151N Driver install

jbreukelaar · Mar 11, 2004, 03:07 AM

Has any one had success in installing driver on 10.3? Network printing works fine with generic postscript driver but it would be nice to be able to use the duplex printing this printer was purchased for.

Go to the Samsung's website and get the PPD for ML-2150. This should install inside /Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/en.lproj/.

Open the file "/Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/en.lproj/Samsung ML-2150 Series" using a text editor.

Find the line "*OpenUI *Duplex/Double-sided Printing: PickOne"
Insert above this line the three lines below:

*%========================================
*% Duplex Mode
*%========================================

For some reason OS10.2 does not require these three lines.

save the file.
Set up the printer with "Printer setup utility".
