Public bug reported:

When trying to install a Dell 1110 printer no driver for this specific
printer was shown. Generic or postscript didn't work. But when I
searched the internet I found that the Samsung ML-1510 driver works
perfectly. And it does. For information:

http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Dell-1110

I think this driver should show up as a Dell 1110 driver in the printer
install so users can actually find the correct driver for their printer.
I checked the site, and more Dell printers can use other drivers. I
think these also should appear in the printer install as Dell drivers
for these specific printers because they are the best drivers available.
This could apply to other brands of printers too, I am not sure about
that, but it would definitely improve the user friendliness.

Thanks for looking,
Thomas de Graaff.
