[ubuntu] Samsung ML-2165W Printer Issues

linux-howto

http://ubuntuforums.org – Hi, I bought myself a Samsung ML-2165W Printer, installed Samsung Unified Printer Driver (followed instructions on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=341621). Now my computer seems to recognize the printer, but happily just says 'Document is Printing on ML-2160-Series' and a bit later 'Printing Completed'. In reality however, apart from starting to blink the green light a bit, my printer doesn't do a thing aaargh! On weird thing maybe is that in my system settings / printers I have a printer called ML-2160-Series, but it mentions Samsung ML-2152WPS as the model... Any help would be g (Hardware)

I have this printer installed and working along with the scanner, my only complaint is that there are virtually no controls over the printer settings, which is very frustrating If you don't want to waste ink. As of right now i have to use VMware and windows to print in a lower quality. CUPS and (it would seem to me) the driver do not allow you to change the settings.

I just noticed that since using Ubuntu 12.04(.01) or since some update (can't tell it for sure) I cannot print from Firefox to my network printer (Samsung CLX-3175FN) any more.

Hi,Some months ago I got a Samsung SCX-3200 mono multifunction printer. I installed samsung unified driver from AUR I think it was v3 and printer worked.After the driver got updated to v4 I think my problems started. Sometimes when printing a document I only got pages with garbage characters in the first line on the whole page.

Printing from note, 22 weeks 4 days ago

Ok. So if I wanted a tablet that forced me to buy all products from the same manufacturer, I would have bought an Apple. Instead I bought a Samsung and assumed since it was an android device that I would be able to print from any printer connected to my WiFi network. Apparently Samsung is almost as dumb as apple because I can only print from a Samsung printer? Seriously?

network samsung laser printer 43 weeks 4 days ago

can't get the Samsung CLP-620ND printer that is on my local network to work. Using "system settings" app, it always installs as if it is a local printer, even though I selected "network printer." Also, when I tried to specify the URL address of the printer, Fedora still thought it was hooked to the local machine. Bah. Has anyone gotten it to work?
