Samsung ML-2251N Driver for Mac

In our Computer World Examination Facility evaluations, the ML-2251N kipped down merely sufficient rates but created prints of surprisingly pleasing quality.

The brevity of the configuration poster's multilingual directions approached obscurity as well as some pictures were vague. The portable Samsung ML-2251N prints near-flawless text, yet network installment is tough, as well as the unit's leisurely printing speed implies you'll get printouts on the Samsung's routine-- not yours.

The layout had a couple of problems, as well. The control panel's single switch, marked 'Terminate', can do six functions beyond the noticeable one-- including printing a setup sheet as well as picking hands-on feed-- however without consulting the customer's guide, you'll never ever find out (or bear in mind) the elaborate press/hold combinations needed for each. One more beef: The Samsung ML-2251N printer's front cover and also the multipurpose tray's cover open from the exact same area, as well as it's impossible to tell from the outside which is which.
