Have you been able to print successfully to your Samsung SCX-4200 printer via ulpt0 directly (without using samba)? I think it uses a proprietary format. Some open source driver is at http://splix.ap2c.org/ but for CUPS. I didn't look at it, but maybe you can make that work so you can test locally. Anyways, I have had ongoing problems trying to print via some ulpt0 printers. There are a few threads about it. I do have good success using a Brother HL 5150D Postscript printer over ulpt0 using lpd for several years now. You may find that using a printer with a non-proprietary format may be easier.
