Product Description

Imagine a printer that is small, sleek and silent. The SAMSUNG SCX-4500W wireless laser MFP is half the size of its nearest competitor, it is the smallest laser MFP in the world. Its piano black finish, buttonless controls and blue LEDs make it the sleekest MFP to ever grace a desk.

4.0 out of 5 stars Set Up Instructions, and then its a breeze., August 8, 2009

By	M. Pallozi (albany, ny) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I'll try to save people a great deal of effort.

If you're using a mac and you want to use this printer as a network wireless printer, this is what you need to do:

1. Using an ethernet cord (not the included crossover cord), plug the printer into your router.
2. Turn on the printer, add paper, and hold down the Stop/Clear button for approx. 6 seconds until a diagnostic page prints
3. Type the printer's IP address into your browser.
4. Click the wireless tab on the left side, follow the instructions and hook your printer into your wireless network.
5. Go to System Preferences, Printers, Search and Add your new printer.

Thats it.

You can now unplug your printer from the network, and put it anywhere you want wirelessly. Adding it to other machines is just a System Preferences, Printer, Add printer.

4.0 out of 5 stars Difficult set up, June 7, 2009

By	Femme Fatale "#1 Skeptic" (Washington,DC) - See all my reviews

After I was finally able to get the wireless up and running I like how the machine operates. Samsung does not include all the instructions for syncing the wireless (if there were instructions then I overlooked them). I'm not going to go through all of the steps, however I will offer three critical parts that should get you on your way if you have any knowledge about setting up a home network. 1. After you install the software, place your IP address in the address bar and press enter. 2. After you have done step one (and the configuration under the wireless section), you will need to go to your printers and right click on properties (for the samnsung scx-4500) and add a port using your IP address. 3. In order to use the wireless scanning feature, you must go back to the samsung website (download center) and download the Scan Driver/Scan Manager software. After you have installed, the Samsung Scan Manager will be located under control panel. I made a desktop shortcut. Note...the steps listed above are for PC users. Anywho, smooth printing, great color scanning but a bit of a headache to set up. The tech support at Samsung was nice and patient and English speaking! Good luck!

3.0 out of 5 stars Warning for Mac users, January 21, 2009

By	D. Hanz (New Braunfels, TX United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I had no problems setting this up to print with my iMac. Wireless printing works great. Just be warned that while this is a multi-function printer, only printing is wireless, you need to connect the machine to your Mac to use the scanner. Also the "Scan to PC" button on the printer means just that - PC only. You must use Preview on the Mac to scan.
