Dell B1160 printer toner is more affordable than most consumer machines, but is still a bit pricey. Buyers will benefit from speeds of up to 21 pages per minute and sharp 1200 dpi image quality.

Finally check in system prefs if printer can print a test pageīest of luck to anybody who has made the same mistake.The Dell B1160 is a compact monochrome laser printer that is not much larger than the average inkjet, and comes at a very similar price.choose the dell b1160 as auto connect printer (you may have to remove first and then add in the window that opens).run their usb control centre and keep telling it to reopen if it crashes.reconnect printer to the Trendnet TE100-MFP1 usb port.connect printer to mac usb and install it as normal under system prefs.find folder called root and subfolder called Library and copy both kext files and paste them into /Library/Extensions.Many problems found: their software USB control centre is completely unstable and useless.įinally I copied and pastes the two kext files in their installer package (non Apple Installer, but some cloned thing from Windows)

Connected via Trendnet TE100-MFP1 ethernet usb printer hub. direct printer connection to BThub USB port does not work at all.Ģ. Here is the outcome of my research and money spent:ġ.

I wil post tomorrow again with my results.😮😉Īt 39GBP that printer is not a bad deal and it is aSamsung: I don't care what happens to Dell, really. I continued and it installed the software and driver perfectly well. I used the Samsung ML2165 driver to be found on their website and that had the same bug but when it crashed it gives the choice to crash or to continue. There is a blank empty plugin in the installer package which has to be removed. The printer drivers for the Mac can be found on the Dell ftp but be aware that there is a fault in one of the installers and it will stop after the license agreement. If it doesn't work I have a fallback solution for later:īuy a printer server Trendnet TE100-MFP1 and use it to connect printer via the ethernet port on the modem. I am connecting it to a BTHub4- modem into the usb port with IP 192.168.1.253 and shall see if it works.

I just purchased one of those B1160 Dell/Samsung clone printers.
