Yes, ML-2010R is the model.
I had already looked in the Samsung download section, and the only Mac download there requires OS 10.3 or later. This does work OK on 10.3.9 on another Mac I tried.
But for my Mac on 10.2.8 I was wondering if there was a workable open source driver, but searching
http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Samsung-ML-2010
did not reveal anything for use with 10.2.8.
Pity.

diogenes998,

Why not upgrade to a newer version of OS X?
Exactly what model Mac is it, and what are it's specifications?

Tiger is available for purchase at The Apple Store (U.S.).

If your Mac meets the Leopard System Requirements. Leopard 10.5.x, can also be purchased at The Apple Store (U.S.).

Panther, is no longer available directly from the Apple Online Store, as Leopard 10.5.x, is the most up to date OS.

If you know what to look for, a Full Retail Version, of the Panther Install CDs, or a Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD, can be purchased, sometimes less expensively, at some online Apple retailers, Amazon, eBay, FastMac, HardCore Mac, AllMac, etc.

Be sure not to purchase grey, upgrade or machine specific CDs or DVDs.
Panther is only on CDs, not DVDs.
The discs should look exactly like the images in the above links, and not say Upgrade, CPU Drop-in DVD, or "This software is part of a hardware bundle purchase - not to be sold seperately." on them.

Caveat Emptor!
If any are presently available, examine these items very carefully, and if in doubt, ask questions of the seller before purchase!

Once Panther 10.3.x is installed, you can use the 10.3.9 Combo Update, to upgrade to the final version.

If your Mac meets the Tiger System Requirements, you could also consider installing that, and then use the PPC 10.4.11 Combo Update, to upgrade to the current version.

If Leopard 10.5.x is installed, use the Mac OS X 10.5.1 Update.

Review these KB Articles, for the Panther System Requirements, and the Additional Panther System Requirements.

Additionally, Tiger 10.4.x ships on a DVD, so if your Mac doesn’t have a built-in DVD-ROM player, you will have to use an alternative method of installation.

And here Installing Tiger Without A DVD Drive.

The Tiger Media Exchange Program, referred to, is no longer available.

Shop Carefully, Examine All Documentation, And I Wish You Success!
