ML-1610 not listed but defaults to ML-1650 but this driver does not work, Select ML-1510 driver and printer then works perfectly with no other settings needed. -- update by JanClaeys: I use the ML-1710 driver which seems to work a little better (it fixed a printing problem I had with the ML-1510 driver).

The print manager should auto-detect; use the ML-1710 drivers. Seconded -- I have the same experience. It's a good printer.

Recognized as the ML-200, ML-210, or ML-4500. Works well for some, slow (8ppm) for others. Latest MFG's driver is v 2.xx. Installs easily but must still go to System/Admin/Printers and add ML-2010. Tested fine in Dapper. Original driver from Samsung was horrible

Works, though seems buggy (Landscape printing in [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OpenOffice2 OpenOffice] doesn't work, etc.) Downloaded (Linux-compatible) driver from Samsung which asks for root password when installed which doesn't seems to work, however printer is detected anyway.
