István Pintér (Slovene: Števan Pinter) (c. January 25, 1831 – December 11, 1875) was a Hungarian Slovene writer and court in Felsőszölnök.

For the Hungarian water polo player, see István Pintér (water polo).

He was born and lived in the Jánoshegy (locally: Janošovi brejg), near Felsőszölnök. His parents were István Pintér and Mária Bajzék.

About 1864, he wrote his cantor-book. This hymnal contains religious folk songs in the Prekmurje dialect. The oldest hymn is Krisztus nam je od szmrti sztao (Christ Is Risen from the Dead) from the manuscript of Stična Monastery in Styria.
