After searching around I found many users experience interoperability issue between ML-1860 and latest MacOS because there no supported drivers anymore.
However I I haven't been able to find any solution.
Anyone that managed to get this fixed?
Thanks
MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 12.5
I got Samsung ML-1675 to work in Big Sur and Monterey with the "Samsung ML-1860 Series" driver.
0. As always do a backup, just in case!
1. Connect Samsung ML-1675 printer via USB and turn it ON.
2. Download and install Samsung Printer Drivers v2.6 (Driver Version: 1.03.02) from Apple Support:
-> SamsungPrinterDrivers.dmg
Samsung Printer Drivers v2.6 for OS X
-> On macOS 11-12 Big Sur - Monterey you must install those drivers via Pacifist 4 (~ $24€) because the old installer does not work on newer macOS ("This volume does not the requirements for this update.").
Pacifist > File > Open Package... > [choose SamsungPrinterDrivers.dmg] > [select "SamsungPrinterDrivers.pkg"] > File > Install Files to Default Locations > [Replace (or Update) all files that already exist]
3. System Preferences > Printers & Scanners > [optionally ctrl-click in the left panel "Reset printing system..."] > + > click "Samsung ML-1670 Series" > Use: Choose a driver... Select Software... > select "Samsung ML-1860 Series" > OK > "Add" the printer > OK.

Thanks a lot
It fixed the issue. Cost is currently 20$ to register/donate
Thanks for the report.
It is a shame that fully functional hardware might go to waste just because vendors do no bother to update little bits in their software.
Fully agree with you
As they said, we are fully in the new consumption life.
