Anyone got this working over a LAN under CentOS? The instructions claim it is easy to connect after pressing the WPS button on printer and router.
Sadly, I don't see a WPS button on my Linksys WRT54GL router.
I'm not at home right now where I can go look, but I think MY wrt54gl has a WPS button. I've never found a use for it,
I've looked carefully, and I'm pretty sure there is no such button on my WRT54GL; the only button is called Reset.
As someone else has already suggested, if you can access the printer via hard-wired network, you can set it up the way you want instead of the way some marketing-droid thinks he'd like you to do it.
I've installed the UnifiedLinuxDriver_1.07 from Samsung, and this allows me to setup (and use) the printer after connecting to my router with ethernet, and then I can access the printer web-page at the IP address (192.168.2.33) given by dhcpd on my LAN.
Unfortunately this web-page does not indicate any way of connecting the printer by WiFi.
It seems to me that I shall have to run Windows on my server, at least temporarily, to setup this printer as a WiFi device.
