Samsung Electronics SL-M2875DW/XAC Wireless Monochrome Multifunction Printer (SS351A) (SS351A#BGJ)

Edit: The mac drivers are now up on HPs support website. New rating is 4, but I am going to leave my old rating up for "historical purposes". Previous review: Do you have a Mac? Samsung and HP dont care about you, at all. I bought this printer a few months ago, and it had been working just fine. After a WiFi/Router upgrade, I deleted the printer on my Mac and then attempted to reinstall the printer using Samsungs software. No luck. Apparently Samsung now has a deal with HP to support its printer products. The problem is that Mac drivers are no longer hosted and Samsungs servers, and they havent yet been uploaded on HPs servers. So, I can no longer print to it from my primary machine. Yes, I perhaps could finagle with Printer setup (in System Preferences) and "manage" to install the printer. But why should I got through all this hassle? Its surprising that two large behemoths have dropped the ball on a relatively new product. Until this issue is resolved, I strongly urge mac users to stay far, far away from this printer.

Fast and affordable printer, you cannot configure or setup the wifi connectivity with a chromebook. This is a problem for me. My workaround is just to leave it hardwired into my router, now google cloud print sort of works. Just be aware. UPDATE: After 6 months I have been e another significant complaint. If you intend to use Google Cloud Print you should know that you will experience a significant bug due to a "timeout error" which has no workaround. Basically when I go to print anything it just spits out a timeout error sheet and I have to just keep trying it until it works, sometimes takes up to 10 times for it to go through. It is a waste of paper and time and Im sure it is because a lot of these printer manufacturers dont like to work with Google. I have attached photos. Beware.

This product worked fine for about...the warranty period. Latest Mac OS is not supported, and nothing I do makes me think HP will ever change that. First, it quit scanning wirelessly, and then it quit scanning via USB. I have reinstalled drivers till Im blue in the face, and scoured the "Help" sites; their own help chat system failed twice to even finish the routine. NOTHING works! OK, I could copy, or print...but this is an all in one unit! Scanning is a big reason why I bought this thing! additional comment...I tried all day to post a review at the HP Support site; it never worked! Believe all the awful things youve ever hear about HP.

I just spent over 45 minutes trying to print an envelope. Apparently, Placing an envelope in the manual feed tray always causes a paper jam. Removing the envelope from the manual fee tray does not clear the paper jam. I eventually succeeded by flattening the creases of the envelope with my finger. I never had a problem with these same envelopes in my old HP inkjet printer. Installation of the printer drivers on my Mac was equally painful and difficult. The user interface with buttons and LCD display on the top of the printer are even more confusing and difficult to use. I bought this printer because of a good review on WireCutter. The review was wrong.This is a terrible device. While this printer may have some technological advantages such as very crisp resolution with incredibly small fonts, those advantages are outweighed by incredibly poor usability and difficult setup. I returned this printer, and I exchanged it for the much better device Brother DCP-L2540DW. Setting up the Brother printer was incredibly easy, fast, and painless compared to the Samsung. After setting up the Brother to print from my Mac over Wi-Fi, I then tried to print from my iPhone using AirPrint. It just worked! No additional set up, no indecipherable menus or LCD displays, no poorly written software from Samsung. It just worked. One final note, I printed several pages of text with small fonts using the Brother. Its a 600 DPI laser printer, and the text was incredibly sharp and crisp. The resolution is perfect.
