I also have a Samsung network printer, model M4070FR,
and have finally figured out a simple way to get it and the built in scanner to work.
First of all, to get the scanner to work, in the printers menu, select network,
ipv4, change from DHCP to static and give your printer a static address.
Then edit as root, /etc/sane.d/xerox_mfp.conf and add the line
tcp 192.168.x.xxx the x should be either a 1 or 2 depending on
your router's address, and the xxx is the static address you give the printer.
To install the printer:
Go to printers in the LL menu, add new printer, click on network printers, select your printer,
select postscript.Samsung, select generic driver, select postscript, then OK.
That should install the printer using the generic cups drivers and
you won't have to mess with installing Samsung drivers.
