Thanks Suvayu it looks very impressive.
I ran the script I was having problems with and I have attached it.
I'm under the GUN here to get a Samsung CLX3175FN printer working, 
Samsung has drivers for linux but they won't work in Fedora 11 .The 
install.sh script is hanging up on me.

This sure is a nice printer.
