According to the information on openprinting.org, those both appear to use
the proprietary Samsung Printer Language, so you have just 2 options:
* a proprietary driver from Samsung and
* a reverse-engineered driver (SpliX) which (AFAIK) isn't in Fedora at this
time. And some Samsung printers require the patent-encumbered JBIG support,
so support for those is not likely to land in Fedora any time soon.
Also note that the list on http://splix.ap2c.org/ cites neither the CLP 310N
nor the SCX-4500W. (It does cite an SCX-4500 without the 'W', but that might
be a significantly different model.)
