Hi,


The following printers are listed in About AirPrint - Apple Support as models supporting the AirPrint technology, and should thus work without additional drivers (provided that the printer and the computer are connected to the same network):

  • Samsung Xpress M2830DW
  • Samsung Xpress M2835DW
  • Samsung Xpress M2836DW

Do you have one of these exact models? How is the printer connected?

If a USB connection is used, drivers would be needed.


Based upon software information in the user's guide, even a generic PCL printer driver could possibly work.

According to the HP (Samsung) support pages, a universal print driver V3.93.01 appears to have been used for macOS 11 Big Sur.
