THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why was this so hard to figure out? lmao

Thank you google for your amazing google search that brought me to this random github submission and thank you edoz90 for writing this. I have a small feeling this was for yourself xD. If it was, be happy you helped someone else out

I had to download and install SAMSUNG drivers from the AUR and then followed your guide! Works like a charm! Thank you!

Thanks a lot, I even didn't know if the driver was installed, I am using Sumsung M2020.

There is a small error on line 43.
sudo cupaccept HP_PSC_1510 is incorrect.
It should read:
sudo cupsaccept HP_PSC_1510

Thank you @shwaybotx. It's fixed now

Wow, that was quick! Thanks Edoardo. I was following it step by step and encountered an error. When I looked it over I saw the mistake. A very helpful guide, btw.
