Err, lol.  Here you go.  This allows a number of Samsung (& Lexmark?) laser printers from that era to work on 64-bit Windows 8/10/11.

(I am still using the Samsung ML-1210 laser printer.  I've had it for 13 years.)

Does anyone still have this driver. I am going crazy trying to install my Lexmark E210 on Windows 10, worked great on Windows 7

 

...It is linked in my post immediately above.

 

As an aside, I'm having difficulties with the ML-1210 printer now.  The driver doesn't work with Windows on ARM.  There doesn't seem to be a good way to get it working with ARM macOS, either.  Also, the printer has started picking up multiple sheets at a time from the input tray and cleaning it didn't help to stop this behavior.  I'll probably be replacing it later in the year.

Thank you Aaron

 

I saw the file only after I joined. I downloaded, installed and was so thrilled to have it print a test sheet after hours of trying with other things and wasting time wit Lexmark and Windows support. However, it will not print now, any ideas?

Works perfectly. Thank you so much!!! I looked everywhere for that driver but there were so many sites with bugs ;-0

Got another request about this printer driver.  It's still here (in my post up above) ... but I can say that I have now finally chucked this printer in the trash.  The Samsung lasted a good long time but started to have issues picking up multiple pages at once and getting jammed.  Cleaning it out didn't help.  That, plus the problem with not being able to use it with newer OS environments (ARM Windows + macOS, with Linux support being spotty as well) meant that it was time for it to go.  I replaced it with a brand new Brother black-and-white laser printer (HL-L6200DW) which has been working great.
