Question about Samsung Sl-C480w
Since the update to MacOS 10.5 (Catalina) on my MacBook Pro, printing and scanning no longer work. The old printer driver is not suitable, a new one does not seem to exist - and the HP/Samsung printer support is "the very worst" (I have rarely seen anything so bad). Does anyone have an idea to get the printer (preferably wireless) to print and scan again ??? THANK YOU in advance for your support!

I use this printer for printing and scanning, even after updating to Catalina. It works perfectly on the LAN. I had also tested WLAN and it also works as an alternative to the LAN connection. Both together do not work. Only the two Easy Tools, which were still working at the time, no longer work. HP recommended checking the support page from time to time to see if newer versions of the Easy Tools for Mac were available.
Maybe this data from the system report will help:

I have the same printer and despite different drivers I cannot solve the problem. This printer is definitely not recommended for Mac.
I have now got the printer up and running again (installing it in the WLAN via a PC notebook and then assigning a fixed IP).
I haven't figured out how to scan, so I'd appreciate any tips. I'm currently doing it with the USB stick (very 2021...)
