HP Recommended
Product: Samsung CLX-3185FW
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

This printer still works well with my older Lenovo computer using Win10 @64bit. Now I am trying to install the printer with my new HP 15s notebook (also Win10 @64bit), but so far without success.

The new computer does not have an optical drive, so I could not use the original installation CD from 2011 which I had used with the older computer (which also is from 2018). Instead I tried to download suitable software from HP's website. Unfortunately, the software I found does not work because it does not connect to my device:

-  SamsungUniversalPrintDriver3.exe  -  print driver
- EWS_V3.70.18.0.exe  -  WIFI driver
- SetIP_V1.05.08.3.14.exe  -  Set IP tool
- WIN_EPM_V2.00.01.24.exe  -  printer manager
- WIN_EDC_V2.02.53.exe  -  scanner software
- WIN_OCR_V1.05.08.3.14.exe  -  OCR software

- WIN_PCFax_V2.02.30.exe  -  Fax software

Only the additionally offered USB printer driver which is especially designed for this type of printer -  Samsung_CLX-3180_Series_SPD_V3.11.34.00.18.exe  -  works well with my printer via USB, but it does not include WIFI functionality nor scanner nor fax functionality.

Since also the so-called universal print driver from above list does not work with my printer, I assume that the other drivers/software are also universal and simply not suitable for this old model.

I would appreciate if anybody could tell me where I could find the original drivers and software for this device.
