Samsung CLP-600n

We've had a Samsung CLP-600n connected to our Airport Extreme for about the past year. It's worked fine. We shut the power off while doing some electrical work and can NOT get it to work any longer, on any machine, over the network. We've got two powerbook g4 (one running updated Leopard and one running Tiger which is usually at work but occasionally home) and a macbook pro running Leopard. It will work when connected directly and with the non-networked printer set-up chosen. This will only work for the macbook pro though (one powerbook has a dead screen and is basically a desktop now and one has power issues that require it be plugged in at all times.)
We've done all the fiddling around we can think of, to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

Samsung's network setup instructions are pretty thin. Your Extreme probably issued new IP addresses after its power was restored. Your computers can't find the printer because they're looking for it at the same address it used before.
Delete the old printer queue - the one used when you connected it directly. You'll have to find the printer's IP address, then add the printer again in Print & Fax preferences. Perhaps there's a way to determine the address from the printer's front panel.
Try assigning it a fixed IP address so this won't happen again.

  • Leopard and the Samsung CLP-300

    I cannot print with manual duplex! its killing me i cant print out my school notes... i spent a few hours talking to samsung and they told me its an issue with leopard!? ... this is my first experience with a mac after being a pc user for my whole life... I used to sell these macs saying they were very awesome only to find myself in trouble.. =(
    if someone has a solution for me. or knows some kind of work around this issue with my macbook pro and my samsung clp-300 so that i can select to print double sided [manual duplex] please let me know! email me at [email protected] please!

    I have exactly the same problem on my new MacBook Pro using the CLP-600N - I have the latest model as of March 2008 - I can print from all programs except MS word 2008, which prints blank pages and the print preview shows nothing.
    It took the apple store about an hour to figure out it was the printer driver but they didn't anything in their data base about the problem - this blog is the first time I have seen any data on this problem.
    Has anyone actually corrected the problem? Obviously this is a pain in the butt and the Samsung printer is our office printer and it works for everyone else including a MacBook Pro that is about 6 months old - go figure that one out.

  • Samsung CLP-315W to wirelessly work with OS 10.8.2?

    I know this printer CAN work with my network, it has worked with the current firmware and network printer settings, however it doesn't want to connect recently. Can someone please explain how best to set up a stable static network connection with the printer? Here's what's happened thus far. I have uninstalled the smart panel and the driver and reinstalled it fresh with the newest ones. Both are installed.  When I plug in a USB I get a modern app dialog that allows me to access the settings, when I connect it via a wired ethernet connection I can access the Sync Thru setup dialog through any web browser.  Other websites say that if I connect via either of those methods and change the setup to Static IP, switch the address, save it and then disconnect the blue light wireless capability should turn on within 20 seconds. The problem is it does not.
    Please help me! You would be a hero to many people who got suckered into purchasing this wonderful printer with the WORST customer support ever.

    Thank you for your reply.
    The PDF I am having trouble with when using Safari is a "Weight Workout" that www.activtrax.com automatically creates as an URL and automatically opens using Reader.  When I used Adobe Reader 10.1.5, the print symbol showed up.  However, when I installed Reader version 11.0.01, only a black screen appeared and no print symbol showed up when I moved my mouse cursor.  So, I went back to using version 10.1.5. 
    ActivTrax states "Your default pdf viewing program will open and display the Workout form."  Someone suggested making Preview my default PDF viewing program?  Do you know how to do this?  If I could make Preview my default PDF viewing program, would doing so prevent me from accessing materials from websites that say that you must have Reader installed to view the item?
    In additon, when I open email PDF email attachments, they open in Preview and not Reader.  But PDFs that websites create automatically open in Reader. 
    Thanks for your assistance!

  • How do I install a samsung clp-315 printer under Lion?

    I have upgraded to Lion. This morning I uninstalled my Samsung CLP-315 printer (I was trouble shooting & thought it would be easy to re-install). When I try to re- install via the system preferences my computer recognises the printer is there and tries to get the software to drive it from
    When I click Add I get this message:
    I have also tried downloading the driver from Samsung's  Web site but I still can't re-install the printer.
    Would appreciate comments/help to get it going again.
    Thanks

    I had this problem with my Samsung CLX3185, For some other reason I had to restart. After that restart when I got around to it again, I could install it. Hope it helps. Also, Samsung printer software update is available via software update. Suggest run the SW update, restart and try again.

  • Can't Print B&W Only With Samsung CLP-300N

    I recently purchased an iMac to replace my XP CD. I've been a Windows XP user for a while, and had a Samsung CLP-300N attached to my network. I was able to fine-tune the printer driver settings (quality, number of copies, bw/color, etc) in Windows XP. However, i recently attached the Samsung to my Mac (Leopard 10.5.4) and the printer gets added just fine, and I'm able to print.
    However, I'd like to be able to **just print B&W** to cut down on cost. I did this in Windows by defining one printer (and adjusting the settings) for Color and one for B&W. But I can't set the B&W only on the Mac.
    I went to samsung's website and downloaded the driver - this doesn't give me a utility. When I click the Utility icon in the print queue, it takes me to the configuration webpage of the printer itself (http://192.168.1.5).
    I also installed their SPanel took which is nothing more than the configuration webpage right on your desktop; the configuration webpage gives you no options for printing B&W only.
    I tried adding the printer a second time with just a Generic Driver (hoping it would only print in B&W). No luck... the green light just flashes on the printer.
    I was wondering if a) anyone had similar issues with this printer or b) anyone knows of a suitable generic driver I can use to just print B&W.
    Thanks.

    Yes. I have similar issues. My "solution" is Bootcamp. Sounds silly, maybe, but like you I want B&W only most of the time.
    Really only takes a couple of minutes to reboot from OS X to OS XP. I assume you still have your Windows software, so you can operate as usual. I am resigned to the fact that some of the software I use has no real Mac equivalent, or I cannot afford to repurchase.
    If you come up with a B&W driver for the CLP-300, could you please post. It would probably help a few people in the same boat. Best of luck.

  • Samsung CLP-300 attached to Airport Express Base Station: Issues

    I have found that my Samsung CLP-300 printer, which is connected to my Airport Express Base Station via USB, refuses to print after printing one document. After restarting my Airport Express Base Station, I found that the printer would start printing again, but only one document - afterwards, I required a base station restart before the printer could print again.
    Does anybody know how to rid this problem? I would like to be able to print consecutive documents without needing a reboot.

    Hi Eric. I've had the same troubles for quite some time. I've had limited success setting the printer up as an IP Printer. Here's a link to another discussion that might help you out. Good luck!

  • Need driver for OS 10.9 for Samsung clp-365w Printer

  • Samsung CLP 510 and OS Tiger Classic

    My Samsung CLP 510 usb printer just prints fine in OS Tiger with the driver provided by Samsung. However when i try a printout in classic, it does not work. The printer is connected via usb. The chooser option with the laserwriter 8 does not work. If i try to print there is the message, that the printer is not available. The desktop printer utility in classic does not find the CLP as an usb device.
    So i tried the LPD option with the TCP adress from my mac and the printer queue name provided by OS Tiger. If i try to print there is the following error message: error -8873 printer is busy or switched off.
    Powermac G5 dual 2.0   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Thanks Greg,
    finally I found out what is going wrong. The firewall in os x tiger should be configured with active printer sharing. The print monitor for classic should be deactivated.
    The desktop printer utlility is not able to recognize some usb printers. So I decided to configure it as LPD Printer with the adress of my G5. The printer queue should be the exact name as in OS Tiger. So I created two desktop printers, one for the Samsung CLP, the other one for my HP Laserjet 3015. All print jobs are now transfered to the Cups OS X drivers. Works like a charm.

  • Duplex printing on a Samsung CLP-550n

    I'm running a MacBook Pro with Leopard and have been printing (one-sided) quite happily to our networked Samsung CLP-550n. But, I can't print duplex, the option is greyed out in the printer dialogue box yet from other macs around the office its possible? The default on the printer is set to long-edge binding duplex printing.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Alright, it really was a coincidence. However, the printer is using up way too much toner, the text is all blurry. I've already lowered the quality to draft, but it's not enough.
    This printer is known to use a lot of toner, but not that much. I had to adjust some settings under Windows, too, to reduce the consumption, but it wasn't so bad that the writing was blurry. And I can only adjust the quality in Linux, I didn't find any other options to play with.

  • Samsung CLP-315 doesn't print

    I was looking through this discussions for two days now and tried everything to make my Samsung CLP-315 print via Time Capsule. If I plug the printer into my iMac it works fine, but if I plug it into Time Capsule it will print a few times only. I'm very disappointed because the printer is Mac compatible and Time Capsule is supposed to support all printers, since there is no list of supported printers.
    I guess it can only be a compatibility problem...

    It seems like this list is marketed a lot by the experts. Can you please teach us to fish? What are the specs to look for / ask about to determine compatibility? HP had a matrix on their drivers of some sort on their website a while back, but cannot find it.
    The problem is this - folks want to buy a printer; which should they buy? Apple keeps thinking of the problem as - i have a printer, how do i get it to work. The latter may be valid - but I keep reading the former and it doesn't appear as if it can be addressed.
    Please help us use your products. thank you.

  • How to install a samsung clp 310 driver in the time capsule

    how to install a samsung clp 310 driver in the time capsule ?

    You do not install the printer driver on the Time Capsule, you install it on your Mac.
    Check with Samsung Support for details on how to download and install the driver to your Mac.
    Then use System Preferences > Print & Scan to see if your printer is compatbile. Not all printers are compatible with the USB port on the Time Capsule, so if your printer does not appear, it ls likely not compatible for this purpose.

  • HT3669 driver for Samsung CLP-510 for osx 10.8 ??

    Iam looking for a driver for Samsung CLP-510 for osx 10.8 ?? Samsung dosnt offer one and it dosnt appear at this list? Has anybody some ideas?? Thanks!

    Go to  Samsung, download driver version 10.6 and then open file in Finder. Before clicking file hold control key this will override the warning and then it will install the drivers. After this go to preferences then printers install printer and the drivers are loaded in. I used this for OS 10.8 and now 10.9

  • Samsung CLP-550N won't print with OS 10.4.6

    My Samsung CLP-550N color laser printer worked fine on my LAN until I updated my OS to 10.4.6. Now, when I spool a print job to the printer, after two seconds the print activity monitor indicates the job is on hold. It further states that the printer is "busy."
    The printer works fine with an iMac running OS 10.2.1.
    Samsung has emailed me what they call their "10.2" driver which they said would resolve the problem. It did not. Has anyone gotten this printer to work with 10.4.6?
    PowerBook g4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    I have Samsung CLP-500 Color laser printer (version 4.0/157), driver version 1.7, running under 10.4.6. It works.
    For your model: is that what you have?

  • Samsung clp 315 not printing with os 10.5.8

    i have a samsung clp printer that i bought with my mbp a year and a half ago. after working nearly flawlessly for all this time, suddenly i'm having problems printing. nothing shows up in the print que after i sent it and of course nothing prints. i have re-installed both the drivers and the printer itself many times and i still can't print. i don't have access to printing on my campus because my tech support "doesn't support macs" and my mbp is apparently incompatible with every single printer on campus and the whole system. my printer is conected through my time capsule, which i connect to my mbp via ethernet cable. the wireless stopped working when i upgraded to the 1tb model. previously this configuration worked great. even when i directly connect my printer to my mbp i cannot print. are there any fixes yet??? i would happily roll back to a previous version if the issue is the latest update, however i have no idea how to do this. i purchased a mac because "it just works" and am afraid of messing something up. can anyone help!!?? i have stuff that needs to be printed for school and i'm at a total loss.

    I have the same issue. The current Samsung print driver has a bug whereby it will not print a document if the application from which you are printing is different from the application you used last time you printed. The workaround is to restart the printer whenever it does this. I have written to Samsung about this.
