M2070W
macOS 10.15 Catalina

Hi there, I have come across a real issue using the Samsung M2070W Laser and Catalina. I had occasion to clear my network settings (I was trying to clear SyncThru services password which I knew was correct yet keeps being flagged as incorrect?). Once cleared and printer rebooted I found I could no longer connect to WiFi. I then downloaded the wireless setup app only to find it's never been updated so isn't compatible with MacOS Catalina. I'm really lucky in that we have an older iMac still running High Sierra, which when I connected the M2070W to it I was able to use the Wireless setup app and everything is running okay again. 

 

Had we not still had the older iMac then the printer would have become a wireless brick, though it could still be used as a USB printer. As an aside, after all that I still can't log into SyncThru services? 🤔 This is pretty bad form from HP who are effectively pushing consumers to upgrade their printers. Finally Samsung Easy Print Manger no longer appears to be available either

Things are looking a bit brighter. I have finally managed to log into SyncThru Services and come across the 'Easy WiFi' wizard. It looks as though this has taken over from the now defunct 'Wireless Setting' app, so if I lose or need to reset the printers network for any reason I can restore it from SyncThru Services.  I did have a problem with the printer churning out pages and pages of Unirast characters as well, but I have now sorted out this issue too. 😊
