garbled samsung's ml-1710 driver links for vista

intention was to install ml-1710 (rear sticker says ml-1710 or ml-1710/xaa) as network
printer.

[may not be true for non english driver pages]

but driver link is suspiciously named "...ML-1510_700_GDI_Vista.exe":

The printer driver for Windows Vista 32/64bit.



during running this installer while directly connected to printer (usb), installer dialog
repeatedly cannot find printer (almost certainly because installer's trying to find ml-
1510)


i returned to samsung site's ml-1710p page,

The SPL printer driver for Windows Vista 32/64bit.

notice filename "...ML-1710_GDI_Vista.exe"

installer proceeds without problems.
then reconnect thru network, start "add printer", installed as a network printer without
problems
printed page thru network.

so:
the ml-1710 driver is on the ml-1710p page.
the "ml-1510" driver is on the ml-1710 page.
i didn't check which driver is on the ml-1510 page :-)
