Air print on Samsung M283X printer

You have no idea.

Otherwise I would have no explanation for the fact an AirPrint printer would stop working with an iOS release.

I’ve seen AirPrint get tangled with printer-self-generated certificates that either don’t get re-issued and need to be reset, or that somehow don’t get self-re-issued correctly. (The printer reset or printer network reset usually fixes this, at least temporarily.)

If you have any add-on “coffee shop” VPN apps installed, remove all of those apps, force-restart, and test again.

As part of your troubleshooting, was the printer itself reset, or was the printer networking reset where that’s an available option? Sometimes that clears printing and configuration issues.

About AirPrint - Apple Support does not indicate any Samsung printer resembling that model designation, so I don't understand how AirPrint ever worked. I am not questioning the fact it worked for you in the past, but what am I missing? If you were using some kind of Samsung app perhaps it needs an update.

Thanks, that clears up any confusion I may have had.

Try rebooting your wireless router or access point. While you do that, you might as well reboot the printer. Disconnect power, wait an arbitrary moment or two, power up, wait. Test.

That Apple Support article is incomplete at best. I’m aware of various printers not listed there, based on previous discussions around here.

Here’s a third-party posting of a Samsung manual for that series printer (Samsung “M283x series M282x M262x”), and that includes section covering AirPrint configuration:

https://manualsdump.com/en/manuals/samsung-m282x-m262x-m283x_series/205020/154

Still curious if that document addresses the OP's specific model printer. A "Samsung M283X printer" appears to be a specific printer, whereas that Samsung manual only describes a "series".

There is no doubt AirPrint unequivocally includes the following:

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

Manufacturers seem fond of complex naming conventions.

Otherwise I would have no explanation for the fact an AirPrint printer would stop working with an iOS release.

There are important reasons for keeping printer firmware current far beyond having better support for regenerating the certificates necessary for TLS connection security, too. Rhetorically.
