    It is 2023, and this video still helped me immensely. I gave up trying to connect this a long time ago (after a lot of frustration) and your simple to the point video now helped me set it up quickly and easily. Bless you.

      I share your sentiment. I gave up long ago, but decided to try one more time. Thank you so much Rayne Liu!

    For those that have still have trouble, try press and hold the WPS button the printer for 3 seconds and it will start a 2 minute timer. Then go to your modern router quickly and press and hold down the WPS button for 3-4 seconds until the light flashes. It will connect that way without you needing to enter password.

      Peter, thank you very much for the suggestion. But my EERO router does not have the WPS button. not sure if others will have this button.

    I'm also doing this in 2023 as my Dad passed down his printer to me. This worked immensely! Thank you so much!

    I have exactly the the same type of printer and for at least 5 years, I had used direct USB connection from the printer to the computer. I happen to stumble on to this video and I managed to connect it wireless to my MAC and PC. It is now almost 2023. Thank you so much.

    Thank you Rayne! This has been so frustrating, then I watched your video and it made my cry happy tears. This video was so helpful and you are very kind!

  • @brucewoodruff4074

    Your video was very helpful, considering it is one of the worst setups I have ever worked with, and I like that you took your time and spoke clearly while entering your instructions.
    1. Before starting, be aware that the keypad for entering your passcode is both ALPHA and NUMERIC, so you must toggle through both characters and numbers for each key, which will start over if you go past it, and need to start over..
    2. Arrow right to enter the next character or number, and arrow left to go back and correct any mistakes.
    3. You might want to copy the instructions, or enter them in a text file for future use.
    thanks again,
    greatly appreciated

    Greetings and salutations, Sir! I have an ANCIENT desktop Samsung color laser printer CLX-3185FW. Since moving in 2005, I have not been able to get this damned printer to print wirelessly. I recall it took HOURS to figure it out the first time! After moving, I literally spent HOURS again, but to no avail. I got a Samsung tech on the phone back in 2011, and after probably 90 MINUTES (and a MIGRAINE HEADACHE for me!!!), the tech GAVE-UP, and told me to continue with using the USB connection wire (which is so damned short .. just like cell phone charging cords!), so for 10 YEARS now I've been forced to have my laptop and printer literally side-by-side which is TOTALLY INCONVENIENT!!! For the sheer heck of it, I decided to try a Google search, and found your video. I was slightly disillusioned when I saw that our printers aren't both the same, but since they are both SAMSUNG, I followed you, step-by-step (buttons are identical), and with nearly the exact procedure (number of times pressing buttons was slightly different, but I found all of the settings you designated), ANNNNNNDD, Drum Roll, Please!!! ----->>>> I got the blue light to light-up!!!!!!! Oh, my God!!! You are a LIFESAVER!!! I can now move my printer off of my desk, and FINALLY have more much-needed workspace!!! I am greatly indebted to you, Mr. Liu, and have subscribed to your channel!!! Ahhhh ... UA-cam DIY videos ..... I think next time I'll Google a UA-cam video on how to be a rocket scientist!!!
