Thinking about it now, I still don’t know how to use it cause I’ve not tried it.Īnd that’s it!!! You can print out your documents now. I don’t use the WIFI Direct feature since I have a home router. Specify that you want to change the network and follow the prompt to connect to your local network. You will see a popup showing your current network settings. Just select Network and click Wizard under Wireless Setting. Next thing I did was to use this app to connect the printer to my local network. You should end up with the Easy Printer Manager when you’re done. Setting it upįirst things first, run the CD ( or download the software) that came with the printer and connect via USB. Fortunately, I’m willing to share how I set mine up.

Sadly, the advanced features are quite hidden. Plus if you’re hands on, you can easily refill the toner cartridge at a PC market (like Computer Village) at a waaaayyyyy pocket-friendly price than new. I fail to understand why any SOHO should not get this printer. In other words, I have it permanently connected to a router at my parent’s place and can print with ANY device I have whenever I visit or just print over the internet.

My mum loves it! And yes, this was a deal breaker since I got it for her.

But don’t let that sway you as the cost of the toner is almost as expensive as the printer

It’s so cute it fits easily into almost any space.

It also has some other cool printing protocols that Linux & Mac users will appreciate a lot.

It supports the Google Cloud Print protocol which allows you to print over the web.

It’s wireless and has great support for all the platforms I’ve tried it on – Windows, Linux, Mac, Android & iOS.Perfect for a small office/home office (SOHO) This ensures prints are very clean and polished. I took a while back yesterday to evaluate my gadget-purchase decision over the last 2 years and just had a good feeling about this printer from SAMSUNG: ML-2165W. Anyway, I will not start another “I’m back” rant and will just go ahead and … well … write! Very long time! I guess life happens and you almost forget you once had a blog.
