Where can I find a safe driver for Samsung CLX-3185 multitask printer. Scan driver missingt.

[Heikki74]

Printer has fuctioned perfectly for years. With my new Acer Aspire 5 laptop printing (as well as copying) still work but scanning is not. I had earlier a SmarThru program but it is not available from HP any more. In HP net customer service  one trail leads to a message "Not found" and the other has administrator warning that loading is unsafe! Where can I download either a scan driver or preferably a new SmarThru program safely? Please help.

Hi,

You may install the Universal Scan Driver below to use with your printer:

Samsung Scan OCR program can be downloaded below:

And Samsung SmarThru Office 2 from below link:

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software13/printers/SS/SCX-4726FD/SmarThruOffice_V2.10.00.07.exe

hope these help,

Shlomi

Samsung Scan OCR program soved my problem and offered also additional and better scan features than the old driver which I lost when replacing my old laptop with a new one. The other two trails did not work. One led to "page not found" and the other carried an administrator warning as being unsafe. I am very pleased with the help of Shlomil. I spent a lot of time struggling with the issue but am happy with the end result, many thanks, indeed!
