Using Printer in Linux

Changing Printer Connection Method

If you change the printer connection method from USB to parallel or vice versa while in use, you must re-configure your Samsung printer by adding the printer in your system. Take the following steps:

1Make sure that you connect the printer to your computer. Turn both the computer and the printer on.

2When the Administrator Login dialog box appears, type in “root” in the Login field and enter the system password.

Note: You must log in as a super user (root) to install a new printer to the printing system. If you are not, ask your system administrator.

3From the Startup Menu icon at the bottom of the screen, select Samsung Printer and then Configuration Tool.

You can also access the Samsung Printer Configuration dialog box by typing in samsung-config from the Terminal screen.

4When the Samsung Printer Configuration dialog box appears, click the Add Printer icon on the toolbar at the top of the dialog box.

5Click the Connection tab at the top of the Add a Printer dialog box.

Ensure that the printer port is set properly. If not proper, change the device setting.

6Click OK.
