@maggis This is interesting. I don't quite understand what fixed this for you, since the tarball at the new URL is indeed identical except for a gzip header timestamp. You can verify this by uncompressing both. The resulting tar is identical:

$ curl -sL http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/DR/201704/20170407143829533/uld_V1.00.39_01.17.tar.gz | gzip -cd | sha256sum
4fcb2e88fc74d73e7af9c4273ed16ec7d8a8c98882ac14de2e29ebe8f20f510c  -

$ curl -sL https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software13/printers/SS/SL-M4580FX/uld_V1.00.39_01.17.tar.gz | gzip -cd | sha256sum
4fcb2e88fc74d73e7af9c4273ed16ec7d8a8c98882ac14de2e29ebe8f20f510c  -

Can you re-install this package with the URL in the PKGBUILD, and reproduce the problem?

@christoph.gysin @araruna I've hit the same problem on an SCX-4726FN. Managed to resolve it by changing the source to https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software13/printers/SS/SL-M4580FX/uld_V1.00.39_01.17.tar.gz in PKGBUILD. Strangely, md5 and sha256 sums of both tarballs differ, but when extracting them and comparing sums of each file, all are the same.

@araruna Can you spot any differences in the installed files? I'm happy to fix this package, but I can't reproduce this with my printer.

Strangely, printing from the drivers installed from this package gives me a shitload of completely black pages (there goes my toner), with cups reporting that "/usr/lib/cups/filter/rastertospl crashed on signal 6".

On the other hand, manually installing the same (?) drivers from HP's website worked out fine...

Unfortunately doesn't work on Samsung SCX-4100. When I try to add printer it says 'failed to add new printer additional drivers required'.(Please someone help me. I don't want to go back to windows just because of printer)

@Thermi: Thanks, fixed.

Please remove the executable bit from /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60_smfp_samsung.rules

@liOnux I don't think I will report this to HP, both beacause I don't think that they still update "old" printer drivers (I saw that the last build is from 2017), and because I don't use the printer very much, so it's not a big problem. Thanks for the reply!

liOnux commented on 2019-05-13 19:24 (UTC)

@Yoppez These Samsung printer drivers are out of date. But you have to report this bug to HP because Samsung has stopped drivers development.

My Samsung CLP-325 works with cups 2.2.11-2, but it can't make double-sided printings.
