Samsung CLX-3175 printer (not wireless) compatability with

I have a Samsung CLX-3175 printer (not wireless)Am i right in understanding that if i connect an airport extreme to it, that it will become a wireless printer? any issues i should know about this before buying an air port? thanks all

You might want to check with Samsung support to verify if your model will work at the USB port of the AirPort Extreme.  If it does, then you will be able to print from your computer using the wireless connection.
There is a good chance that the printer will work because it does appear on Apple's list of compatible models:

Important Note......If your printer is an All-in-One type device, only the print function will work when the printer is connected to the AriPort Extreme.  Copy, Scan, Maintenance, etc will not be supported.  You will need to connect the All-in-One directly to your computer for those features to be available.
If you are asking about printing from an iPad, even if your printer is supported, you will likely not be able to print from the iPad unless you install an App like Print Central on the iPad.

  • Knocked out wireless compatibility with network printers?

    I'm having this same issue with my 2008 MacBook running 10.7.5. Reading some other forums, it seems as if Lion knocked out wireless compatibility with network printers...
    I have rebooted my machine, uninstalled and reinstalled all my drivers and continue to have this issue while not having the same issue with my Dell (work issued) laptop. First time a PC has ever performed better than my Mac.

    I still have questions about how to connect the Brother printer through ethernet. When connected does the airport utility have some area where you can identify the printer as a network printer as opposed to USB?
    The AirPort Utility would only come into play if the printer was attached to the TC's USB port. Printers, attached by Ethernet, would have to "network-ready." Controlling these types of printers would be through the printer driver that you would access through the operating system interface.
    In my HP example, the HP printer driver does provide access to a number of features particular to this printer model. Most manufacturers include an installation CD that provide useful utilities ... albeit most are written for Windows. I would suggest checking out the Brother support site to see if they have Mac-specific drivers or utilities.

  • HP LaserJet M1120 MFP will not print on wireless network with Windows 8.1 operating system

    The printer worked on the wireless network with Windows 8.
    I have been advised that it does not work with windows 8.1 because a driver is required. However this is not available to download.
    It is ridiculous that by having the latest operating system I am unable to use the HP printer on the wireless network
    When will HP have the driver to download?

    Check the support site here.

  • Printer Not Connected error with HP Wireless Printer

    Hi everyone,
    Just bought an iMac, first time ever using OSX and trying to add my new HP 2540 wireless printer. I've spent 4 hours on this so far and now looking for help!
    I've followed every instruction to the letter - the wireless connection with the printer is fine as I printed off a report, it will print connected via a cable and it recognises my printer in applications and I have done the set up via disc about 20 times uninstallig each time and starting from scratch again. I've downloaded the latest driver from HP.  All I get is a 'printer is not connected/printing looking for printer' endless bar when I click 'print'. It seems to be an issue of it not recogising it over the wireless connection despite it being connected to my router.
    What am I doing wrong? How do I fix this?
    Many Thanks!

    Connecting a printer is pretty simple if you follow Apple's process, ignore HP's guides!!
    You can find Apple's instructions by clicking Mac Basics: Printing in OS X
    In the event you still have trouble give AppleCare a phone call, you have 90 days of free telephone support and Apple can help resolve most issues. If you don't know the phone number in your area please click Contact Apple for support and service to locate it.
    Good luck and welcome to the light side.

  • I'm trying to get my new airport extreme to print wirelessly to my samsung clx usb printer and not having any luck.  I downloaded the bonjour print wizard and I know there's a signal going to the printer, but it still will not print?  Any ideas?

    I'm trying to wirelessly print to my samsung printer.  I've downloaded the bonjour printer wizard and could tell that a signal was going to my printer but it still would not print.  Anyone have any ideas?

    You didn't state how it's connected to each computer, if it's connected through your router then it should work. If it doesn't then you need to contact Canon and ask for assistance.

  • I can not print adobe pdf's from my samsung clx-3175

    I can no longer print pdf files to my samsung.  It opens and views the files correctly but when I click the print button, I get the following error: /usr/libexec/cups/filter/pstocupsraster failed 
    any ideas on how to fix this?  I should also mention that I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe.  This was done after I was on the phone with Applecare who had me perform an ACL reset for another issue I was having.

    Try opening the PDF in Preview and see if it will print out of it.

  • Samsung CLP-315 printer not happy with Snow Leopard

    I got a Samsung CLP-315 color laser printer about 6 months ago. I had it connected to an iMac G5 (PPC) running Tiger. It worked wonderfully. Well, the iMac died so I got a new Mac Mini (Intel running Snow Leopard). Well, now things are not working very well. When I try to print, sometime it prints, other times I need to power cycle the printer, then when I try to print it works. Printing remotely from my other iMac used to work flawlessly, now it is interemittent. For example, when I try to print a PDF file remotely it won't print. I've very dissapointed that moving to the newest OS causes problems.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    I think I may have fixed the problem. I haven't done extensive testing, but...
    I turned off the printer. I used the install CD that came with the printer. I performed an Uninstall operation. Then I opened System Preferences -> Pring & Fax, and deleted the printer. Then I turned on the printer and Snow Leopard asked me if I wanted to install the driver. I said yes and it went looking. When it completed the printer showed up in my print preferences. This time the picture of the printer showed up in the preferences. Before that it was a generic looking printer. Maybe these drivers are newer/better. We'll see.

  • Printing on Wireless Network with iMac G4 EXTRA Page with jibberish.

    Hello folks,
    I hope to find an easy fix. In my wireless network environment there are 6 PCs and one iMac G4 Flat Panel (OSX 10.4.6) that share a wireless router, and 3 wireless print servers that have 4 different printers attached.
    Everything works very well, except, for when the iMac prints to the Lexmark Optra S 1250 printer. The very first page printed (everytime) has one line of jiberish like this:
    [%-12345X@PJL JOB @PJL LJOBINFO USERID = "username" HOSTID = "imac15.local"@JPL S
    After this very first page prints, everything that follows is printed perfectly. How do I turn off whatever it is that causes this page to print? When I print to any of the other printers it doesn't occur. It does not occur when any of the PCs print to the Lexmark either.
    I thank you all for your time and hope you can help.

    The question here imho is does it have to be wireless?
    If the router is close to the Macs surely Ethernet would resolve any issues and provide fast performance.
    If the XP machine is reliable wirelessly leave it wireless, you can always connect that using Ethernet if you want to transfer larger files to / from the Macs. This will also give you some convenience.
    If things must be wireless then it'll depend on how much you want to spend. Since you'll need a new fast a or g router (avoid pre-n now, wait for something confirmed to work well with Intel Mac and others). The G4 would need a Wireless Ethernet bridge to give a fast connection since USB 1.1 is just too slow or Ethernet again.
    So it depends on you realy and the location of the computers. Nothing wrong with a mixed Ethernet / Wireless network easy enough I have one
    Nothing mentioned on router site about incompatibility with Mac OS 10.4.8. Once the router is configured using the web interface or software supplied you'll need to config the computers accordingly.

    You can print Network Configuration Report from the machine’s control panel that will show the current machine’s network settings. This will help you to set up a network and troubleshoot problems.
    Press Menu on the control panel.
    Press the left/right arrow until Network appears and press OK.
    Press the left/right arrow until Network Info. appears and press OK.
    Press the left/right arrow until Yes appears and press OK.
    Using this Network Configuration Report, you can find your machine MAC address and IP address.

  • HP color laserjet 2600n windows 7 printer not installed problem with spooler.

    My computer will not recognize my printers. Nothing new was installed, just all of a sudden, they were gone . Have installed new drivers, and had a very knowledgeable person look at it-nothing. Very frustrating. Have a program  that has been on it from the beginning and now it won't work (quark). Don't know where to turn. Am doing a windows defender scan for viruses as we speak. Help!!!!!

    Could be a lot of reasons. First try to print a supplies status page- If that prints with color on it, you have a driver problem.

  • HP laserjet M1120n MFP printer not functioning properly with Lion

    After installing this printer it will scan but with some flaws in the scanned image and it will not print at all.
    All that it displays is that there is an error after attempting to print. I'm wondering if there is some special driver that I need?
    The printer is about 4yrs old.
    Thank you

    Your printer should be supported in Lion. Check to make sure you have the latest drivers installed. Make sure the driver for it is selected in the printer list.
    You might try deleting the printer and reading it once the latest driver and software is installed.

  • Faxing from MAC to Samsung CLX-3175

    Hi All,
    I'm a brand new convert to MACs so please be gentle! Have just spent the last few days setting up my new MacBook Pro 13". One issue I have at present is not being able to send a document on my MAC to my multifunction Samsung printer which has a built-in fax.
    On my Windows laptop, there was a piece of software called Smarthru. This allowed you to scan and fax. You could also select print from any application and select the installed Samsung Fax Printer. However Smarthru isn't available for the MAC and I can't get the MAC to recognise the printer as a fax as well as printer and scanner.
    Am I missing something obvious here or is there no way to send a document on the MAC to the printer for faxing? Obviously I could print the document out and then fax it direct from the printer but this is a waste of print toner, paper and time!!
    Many thanks for any advice.

    It depends on your Samsung's driver working fully so that the Mac recognizes it as a fax machine. To send a fax of a document, hit command-p to open the print dialog, then hit the button that says 'PDF' plus a down-arrow. Choose 'Fax PDF', and in the pane which opens set 'Printer' to the Samsung (see whether there is a separate setting for the fax part). Enter the fax number to send to and see whether it works. If it does you probably won't get a progress bar as it sends, which is a bit disconcerting.
