Q: My iPhone & iPad can't recognize my airprint compatible printer. My printer: Samsung SCX-3405 HW. Any one help me??

not google nor samsungs website seem to have heard of that model but

the Samsung SCX-3405 FW and Samsung SCX-3405W don't support airprint they

are just wifi printers thats not the same thing

Try this app:

https://itunes.apple.com/sg/app/samsung-mobile-print/id429611283?mt=8

Rudegear-- Wifi or airprint ... Apple states on its website that - IT IS AIRPRINT COMPATIBLE hence it should be detected as airprint printer.

Diavonex-- Installing samsung mobile print helps but does not solve the problem for someone who does a lot of printing from safari

Samsung just seems to not know what is happening.

anyone with any solution? All i want to do is print from safari to airprint.

Thanks

I've just installed this printer and enabled - everything is working on airprint with my iPad2, iPad Air, Macbook and Mac Mini.

The trick was to connect to the printer's wireless network directly (the direct connect box must be clicked when you're setting up with a USB connection) first.  The next time I tried to find the airprint printer, it was there. 

There is a password associated to the printer's direct connect network as well (setup utility gives you this).  I'm guessing that once it's in the keychain for the device, it can find it and connect to it. 

Anyway - this should solve the mystery.  It's all installed and working.  I didn't have to do a firmware upgrade (not available except as a windows.exe file), but I did install the latest driver off of the support community.  I couldn't get the scanner to work until the driver was up to date.

I'm running OSX 10.9, printer is Samsung SCX-3405FW, iPad software is latest on both iPads.

hi Babak,

I have the SCX 3405 FW and at first it wouldn't work. I have upgraded the firmware to V3.00.02.02_ 0401040 and now iPhone 4S finds the printer right away to send beautiful airprints.

in my configuration I have wired the printer to the LAN which is further connected to the WLAN.

I'm not using Samsung Mobile Printing and I have disabled Wifi Direct.

You will find the firmware update information on Samsungs website, be sure to pick the right model, here is the page for 3405 FW:

I hope this helps,
