WiFi only works on ch 3 by LogicalDave on newegg.com Jun 29, 2012
WiFi setup detects access point on any channel but only successfully connects on channel 3. I had my access point set to channel 1 to avoid interference on channel 3 and was unable to connect successfully...it gives no reason for the failure to connect ...
 
works with usb cable, fast easy set up, fast print by Steve on newegg.com May 31, 2012
For $49 shipped I am one very happy camper. I am using with a netbook (no disc drive) so I had to download the driver from Samsung, this took only a few minutes to locate and install. Now it works seemlessly.

UPDATE - still is what it is by niddin on newegg.com May 4, 2012
I've upgraded to 4 stars, it prints 20 some sheets a day without any problems at all, and is always online for both Mac and PC.
 
Good for home use by Mike on newegg.com Apr 23, 2012
Somewhat concerned about long term reliability - my last Samsung printer died before I used up the first toner cartridge. Just refused to even power on. I went ahead and took the risk on this one because it was on crazy sale. We shall see.

Roll the dice - you lose by PrinterMan on newegg.com Jul 6, 2012
Apparently a lucky few have gotten this printer to work on a wireless network via the WPA button. If you're feeling lucky today and have endless time to burn, this printer may be for you. If you're not a technical wizard and are not so lucky today, ...
 
Great quality prints, when it wants to by jmtravismr on newegg.com Feb 3, 2012
I am currently in the process of seeing what support can do about this, they respond quickly but have so far been of very little help. (Including telling me to set a static IP, when the printer wont even work via USB cable.)
 
No Ethernet Port = Meh by Starscream on newegg.com Feb 8, 2012
If your Samsung printer stays offline do this: Set a static IP address for the printer that is not in the DHCP pool. 192.168.1.200 to 192.168.1.250 should be safe. or Configure your router for DHCP reservation for the printer. http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Static_DHCP Then ...

If you're feeling lucky today and have endless time to burn, this printer may be for you...Like one of the previous reviewers said, you need to plug it in USB to get it on the network, using the less than stellar software...Including telling me to set a static IP, when the printer wont even work via USB cable...

Samsung ML-2165W Printer Review | PCWorld
Low purchase price Sharp text output...Manual duplexing only, and not for Macs High toner cost...Setting up the ML-2165W is simplicity itself...The same reasoning applies to low-cost, low-volume lasers like the ML-2165W: Considering the low initial cost of the unit and the 700-page head start you get, the toner costs are bearable......

Samsung ML-2165W Review - ComputerShopper.com
Fast Very small and light Respectable print quality ...Slightly substandard gray-scale photo printing for a laser High toner cost ...But whatever it meant to you (and to us) until now, Samsung's $129.99 ML-2165W, the smallest laser printer to pass through our labs, may have just redefined the term—or at least changed the conversation...Sure,...

Samsung ML-2165w Review: Ultra Compact Laser
Ultra Compact 1 W sleep mode All-in-one toner cartridge...Manual duplexing Limited functionality...Despite its small stature, the ML-2165w offers an input/output capacity of 150 and 100 sheets, respectively, and a maximum monthly duty cycle of 10,000 pages...But because the ML-2165w can be set up over a wireless connection, customers have access to Samsung's MobilePrint Application from their mobile devices...The PrinterComparison staff has put together...

Small size...WiFi...Ample paper capacity for personal use in any size office...Reasonably high-quality text and graphics....Although fast enough for personal use, it's slower than the competition...High running cost....The Samsung ML-2165W comes up short on paper handling, but offers reasonably high quality output and a small size that makes it a good fit as a personal mono laser in any size office...If you need a personal mono laser to sit on your desk, and...

Samsung ML-2165W review - Printer - Trusted Reviews
If you need a compact, personal laser printer, the Samsung ML-2165W has a very small footprint, but doesn’t sacrifice functionality for its small size...Samsung has made small-format personal laser printers for a while, but the ML-2165W is probably the most compact yet...Coloured in shades of mid and light grey, there are no gaps or openings for dust or spills to enter, when the printer is closed...It’s also easy to print from the Web, thanks to Samsung’s AnyWeb Print...
