After installing and configuring "Unified Linux Driver" from the samsung website the printer doesn't print.

I'm using 12.04.1.

In the printer driver list, even after installing the "Unified Linux Driver" I can't found the exact model. I have tried other drivers like ML-3050, ML-3051, ML-2950, ML2855ND) but the printer doesn't work. It only prints strange symbols. If I try I test page it says that the driver is wrong.

I have XSane and gs, the dependencies requested by Samsung software installed.

How can I solve this problem?. Should I install another driver?

Original question in Spanish:

Al instalar los controladores para Linux de la impresora Samsung "UnifiedLinuxDriver_0.92.tar" (descargados desde http://www.samsung.com/ar/support/model/ML-2955DW/XBG-downloads?isManualDownload=true#) y luego de configurar la impresora como sugiere por defecto el Unified Linux Driver provisto por Samsung la impresora NO imprime. Tengo en mis Pcs Linux Ubuntu 12.04.1 como SO. Lo que pude observar es que en la lista de controladores luego de instalar el software de Samsung "Unified Linux Driver" es que NO aparece el modelo exacto de la impresora ML-2955DW. Si bien probé con otros controladores (como ser: ML-3050, ML-3051, ML-2950, ML-2855ND) la impresora no me funciona correctamente, envío a imprimir e imprime varios símbolos raros y no los datos enviados. Al enviar a imprimir la página de prueba sale una hoja que dice que el controlador utilizado es incorrecto. La consulta sería que controlador debería utilizar o cómo puedo solucionar este problema. Tengo Xsane instalado y GS que son los requisitos solicitados por el software de Samsung. Desde ya muchas gracias.

This printer supports PCL 6, so it should work out-of-the-box with Ubuntu.

Try to select a similar driver, I don't have this printer, but try the ML2850D and select the plxmono driver, not the postscript one. It should mostly work.
