Samsung ML1610 and Snow Leopard

Saturday July 24 2010

Samsung ML1610 Got my new MacBook Pro a week ago, and had to reinstall the driver for my trusty old Samsung ML-1610 laser printer. I bought it years ago for less than 50 euros and it’s still going strong.

It’s a great (and cheap) printer, but Samsung doesn’t officially support it for Mac OS X (Snow) Leopard. Which is kind of strange, because it’s quite easy to get to work! Just install the 10.3 drivers for the ML-1710, choose the 1710 driver for your 1610 printer and it will work in 10.6 just fine.

You can find the driver on Samsung’s website. It’s not available on the US site, but it is on the Dutch one. Strange again… but it’ll work!

The Samsung ML-1610 and the Dell 1100 are in fact the the same laser printers. The Samsung drivers work with the Dell and Mac OS X (Snow) Leopard.
