Bernhard, Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and trying to help make Ubuntu better. However, it seems that you are not using a software package provided by the official Ubuntu repositories. Because of this the Ubuntu project can not support or fix your particular bug. Please report this bug to the provider of the software package (e.g Samsung). Thanks!
The Ubuntu wiki lists hardware that is supported or working. Your printer model is listed as Not Supported but mostly working according to openprinting.org. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrintersLexmark http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Samsung-SCX-4216 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=350539 The Samsung UnifiedLinuxDriver current version is ver.3.00.37 updated 2009-02-25. You may try it in a VirtualBox so as not to upset your system. Ubuntu Hardware Support lists your printer as working under Intrepid 8.10. Because this driver is not part of Ubuntu, I must mark this bug report as invalid.
