Latest Version: 2.0.0
This is a Mac OS X package for SpliX, a set of CUPS Printer drivers for SPL (Samsung Printer Language) printers. If you have a such printer, you need to download and use SpliX.
Available Downloads
- Splix-2.0.0 (Recommended, but tested only with Snow Leopard)
- If 2.0.0 does not work, download Splix-1.1.1
This is an Universal package, but all my development occurs on Snow Leopard/Intel and I haven’t tested this package neither on Leopard/Tiger or PPC systems. Anyway, it *should* work – feel free to contact me if you have any issues.
Supported Printers
- Dell 1100, 1110
- Samsung CLP-200, CLP-300, CLP-500, CLP-600, CLP-610, CLX-216X, CLX-2170, CLX-3160, ML-1510, ML-1520, ML-1610, ML-1630, ML-1710, ML-1740, ML-1750, ML-2010, ML-2150, ML-2250, ML-2510, ML-2550, ML-2571, ML-3050, ML-3560
- Xerox Phaser 3115, 3116, 3117, 3120, 3121, 3122, 3130, 3150, 3420, 3425, 5500, 6100, 6110

thanks very much…have just changed over to an iMac from a PC after many years, and was rather confused that my ML-1610 didn’t work even though the computer recognised it and named it correctly…downloaded your driver and using the ML-1510 choice it works again! Cheer!
Peter Hindle
Thank you very much. My ML-1610 is now working perfectly on my Intel MBP.

Thanks for working to provide these drivers.
After spending several hours trying to install my old ML1740 upon upgrading to Leopard, I found this site and had the printer running within minutes.
Luigi
Thank you so much for sharing this work!!!
On my machine (Intel Core 2 Duo 2.16GHz iMac under 10.5.3) — I get only 1 page out no matter how many copies I specify… maybe that’s just me…?
In any case, thank you VERY much!!!
Luigi
Nevermind — quantities work fine — I just had to repair permissions on Preview… they had been fouled up by moving to Leopard.
Cheers!!!
Gryphon
Hooray! After days of fighting with my new mac, trying to get it to recognize my good old ml 1610, your download worked absolutely perfectly. Thank you so much!
cheers,

Thank you. It helped to solve my problem: Time Capsule dropping connection to Samsung ML-1630 and needing restarting to print one single page…

Hey Guigo,
I have 2 PPC systems running leopard and neither will work (PB G4 & PM G5). I have an ML-1750 and all it will do is print blank pages.
Any one have any Ideas?

I downloaded the driver – I actually have an ML-1430 but this should work with 1630. My computer does not recognize my printer. How do I move forward now that I downloaded this?
Thanks

I am almost hopeless after my laptop to which i connected my Samsung ML-1610 printer crashed. I have a new Mac with Leopard which I initially thought wouldn’t accomodate the printer. then I saw this site, downloaded the program and…Presto! It works! Thanks to the genius of Guigo.
From the Philippines…Cheers!

Hey
You posted in the comments on my site once about your SpliX package. I got a new Mac a few days ago and gave yours a spin and did a little followup, works flawlessly. Thank you very much.

I downloaded the driver for my ml 1740 and Mac OS 10.4.11 … still does not work. The red light on printer: On Line/Error will not go off. Can get printer to recognize the computer or vice versa. What can I do next? Thanks.
MitziG
I deleted old drivers and cleared out Library. Rebooted Mac. Installed new driver and still does not work.
MitziG
It’s working. Downloaded another driver and it’s working fine now. Thanks.

Works well, ML1610 with Airport Express.
Occasionally the Airport will drop the printer (without logging anything), but a power cycle of the airport fixed it – could be the USB cable or printer.

This driver works perfect. Thanx from Poland ![]()

Hi,
Am having difficulty getting my Xerox Phaser 3116 to print using your driver with Mac OS 10.5.
The printer recognizes the driver but always prints a blank page. Printer works fine onit’s test page.
Please can you help … you say i need version 1.1.1 but the download you provide is for 1.1.0
Thanks

thanks from Honduras
you save my problems, you are a bless!

Hi,
I have tried Splix on my OS 10.4.11 for PPC. The system recognized the printer and named it correctly upon connection. I have the Samsung ML-1610. Decent little printer for the money.
Can’t get anything to printer from TextEdit or Acrobat. I get the message “The process “rastertospl2″ terminated unexpectedly on signal 10″.
I tried installing the 1510 and 1710 drivers as others have tried with success, but not working for me. Maybe because it is a PPC?
Any suggestions would be very appreciated.
Thanks!
Laszlo
Does not work with Xerox Phaser 3117, PPC, through AirPort Express

Yaron Ofek
thank you so much!!!!
I just bought a macbook and it didn’t even occur to me that my xerox 3121 wouldn’t have a driver from xerox…
I started to think that now I have to buy a new printer
But then I found your website! I downloaded the driver, and it works perfectly!!
Tnx again,
Yaron

Using a Samsung ML-1710 on Mac G4 PPC running Tiger 10.4.11.
Downloaded the Slpix package and installed it. The printer is now recognized, but it will not print. Everything looks like it should work. Printer Utility shows jobs being sent to the printer, but the printer doesn’t respond.

Downloaded it, installed it and up and running after 1 minute using my Samsung ML-1610 through a Belkin F1UP0001 printer driver.
SUPERB!

Any suggestions?

Emma
It worked!!! Finally I’m able to print from my boyfriends Xerox Phaser 3121, using my MacBook OSX 10.5.6! excellent! Thank you, you genius!
Lisa
Thanks a lot for this – it worked perfectly on my MacBook Pro, 2.6GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, OS X version 10.5.6 – all fine, and OK with multiple copies or printing single pages from a range.
Thanks!
Lisa
PS: It took me a while to realise that it doesn’t actually install a program or utility on your Mac. It simply adds the drivers to the printer list, so when you go to System Preferences, Print & Fax, add the printer by name and then the drive will appear on that list.
Great!
Terri
This is an excellent package. My MacBook (system 10.5) works with ML-1610 perfectly after downloading and installing this package. Thanks!

Hi Guigo
These drivers work very well on my Intel Mac but on my PPC G4 they print blank pages!
Do you have the original source? I could try compiling them on the G4 and see if they work that way, then send you back the compiled binaries.
Best regards,
Curious
Brian Tanner
Hey Guigo. Brian Tanner here. I recently did some system updates on my iMac and my printer disappeared!
So, I came to your webpage and downloaded your driver and life is good again. I’ll keep sending people your way when they find my web page

Thank you for creating Splix! It makes my Dell 1110 laser printer work with Mac OS X 10.5.7.

You, sir, are the man.
After 10+ hours fighting with various attempts at getting our Samsung ML-1740 working with a Macbook (OS X 10.5.7) I downloaded this and printed within a minute.

Many thanks for the ML-1610 driver. Others have confirmed that it works with MacLeopard (OS 10.5), and I can say that it also works with Snow Leopard (10.6).

Thank you Guigo!
I was already looking into buying a new laser printer, but since I found the link to your page on Brian Tanner’s page (http://brian.tannerpages.com/content/view/55/69/) I don’t need to. I even got the ML-1610 working through a wireless print server box. That I couldn’t do by any other means. You saved my printer!
