For clarity, here are the steps (shell script) to install CUPS the way
it works with SCX-4200 on Ubuntu 9.10 (amd64) :

!#/bin/sh

# Download cups sources (1.4.0 works) and samsung unified driver, 
# unpack them and adjust those variables as you need : 
cups_src_dir=$HOME/BACKUP/scx-4200/cups-1.4.0
samsung_driver_dir=$HOME/BACKUP/scx-4200/cdroot

sudo apt-get remove --purge cups cups-bsd cups-client cups-common
sudo rm -r /etc/cups /var/lib/update-rc.d/cups /usr/share/cups /usr/share/cups 
/usr/share/doc/cups /usr/include/cups /usr/lib/cups

# Build and install cups (go to cups.org to grab latest source)
cd $cups_src_dir
./configure
sudo make
sudo make install

# Install Samsung Unified Driver
cd $samsung_driver_dir
sudo sh autorun

# Reboot! 
sudo reboot
